Luck Chain Letter.  Ancient Prayer.  "Make a wish while writing the prayer."  US, 1911.
Oh Lord I implore Thee to bless mankind. Keep us from all evil by thy precious blood. And take us to dwell with Thee in Eternity.
This was sent to me and I am sending it to you. Copy it and see what will happen.  It is an exact copy of an ancient prayer and it is said in Jerusalem: That he who will not copy it will meet with some misfortune but he who will copy it for nine days beginning on the day he receives it and sends it each day to a friend will on the ninth day experience some great joy and be delivered from all calamity.
Make a wish while writing the prayer and do not break the chain. It must not be signed.
