A mystery surrounds a long-lost love letter sent from a soldier serving in World War II to his wife in Massachusetts.

The mystery is where that letter ended up.

It was found recently in a Tennessee shopping mall, inside the pocket of a new pair of pre-washed pants, which were made in China.

The date on the letter is Oct. 28, 1943, and it was addressed to an Anna Scott of Massachusetts from her husband, William.

The people who found the letter are hoping someone will recognize it and solve the mystery of its round-the-world trip.
