PER CURIAM.

We reverse a summary final judgment entered in favor of appellee, the original owner of personal property lost in a public place. The dispositive issue on appeal involves a determination of whether appellee's act in claiming or calling for the lost property, BEFORE it was found, constituted sufficient compliance with the requirements of Section 715.01, Florida Statutes (1977).1 We hold that it did not.
