A lad between 15 and 17 years of age, on a rainy, dreary afternoon dashed out into the highway and into an on-coming truck. He died instantly and was taken to the morgue in Durango, Colorado, on September 23, 1981.

Efforts to establish his identity by many missing-persons bureaus, with the aid of the FBI, were all futile.

The only thing found in the pocket of his faded jeans was a quarter. His tan leather knapsack contained a single sheet of paper, a mimeographed tract promising, "JESUS SAVES."

The community was moved with compassion and funds were raised to bury him and erect a tombstone with the inscription: "Durango's Unknown Traveler."

Should the "Unknown Traveler" have put his trust in the One who alone can save—the Lord Jesus Christ—whom the tract in his knapsack was all about, he is not "Unknown" in heaven!

Jesus said, "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them," and as Paul writes concerning the believer not known by the world—"As unknown, yet well known" (2 Cor. 6:9).

What a day it will be in glory should we find the "Unknown Traveler" there amongst all the redeemed, and "well-known" because of his faith in "Jesus" who alone "saves."
