"The Portsmouth postoffice this week picked up this chain letter, which
was mailed in this city, and quicker than it takes to lick a stamp, it was
marked 'chain letter, unmailable.' Here it is - would you fall? [text] "Too
bad the letter was anonymous. Maybe the sender would be interested in the
amazing things our magic carpet can do." Entered by DWV, Aug. 24, 2014.
