MARIE GRAS-Y-FORT
From Vicente Finizio.......Barcelona (Spain) February 1926.
Mr.Alexander Hill of Madrid has sent me this Good Luck Chain Letter
and I am sending it
on so as not to break the chain of good luck.
Among others I am sending it to
you and ask you as I have been asked,not
to break the chain. Copy this and
send it to nine persons to whom you
wish good luck. The
chain was started by an American Officer and
should go round the world three
times.
Do not break the chain,for
whoever does will have bad luck. Write
nine letters and send them within
twenty four hours. Count nine days
and you will have some good luck.
It is positively remarkable how many
times this prediction
has been fulfilled since this chain was started.
With success for you
and yours, let us go smiling and happy through
1926.-
