You will receive it in the mail. Send 20 copies of this letter to friends you think need good luck. Please do not send money. Do not keep this letter. It must leave within 96 hours from your  receipt of it.
A U.S. officer received $7,000. Don Elliott received $60,000 but lost it because he broke the chain. While in the Philippines, General Walsh lost his life six days after receiving his copy. He failed to circulate the prayer. However, before his death he received $775,000 he had won.

Please send 20 copies, and  after -- see what happens to you on the fourth day. Add your name to the bottom of the list and leave off the first name when copying the letter.
