Luck chain letter. Death-Lottery type.  Reduced PS.  Love title. St. Jude. Fifteen Dates. US, 1992. 
                                    WITH LOVE ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE

This paper has been sent to you for good luck. The original is in New England. It has been around the world nine times. The luck has now been sent to you. You will receive good luck within four days of receiving this letter, provided in turn you send it out.

This is no joke. You will receive good luck in the mail. Send no money. Send copies to people you think need good luck. Don't send money, as fate has no price. Do not keep this letter. It must leave your hands within 96 hours.

An A.A.F. officer received $470,000.00, and lost it because he broke the chain.

While in the Philippines, Gene Welch lost his wife, 51 days after receiving the letter. He failed to circulate the letter. However, before her death, he received $7,750,000.

Please send 20 copies and see what happens in four days. The chain comes from Venezuela and was written by Saint Anthony Degreep, a missionary from South America. Since the copy must tour the world, you must make twenty copies and send them to friends and associates. After a few days you will get a surprise - this is true! Even if you are not superstitious.

Do not do the following: Constantine Dias received the chain in 1953. He asked his secretary to make twenty copies and send them out. A few days later she won a lottery of two million dollars. Carol Dadditt, an office employee, received the letter and forgot it had to leave her hands within 96 hours. She lost her job. Later, finding the letter again, she mailed 20 copies and got a better job. Dalan Fairchild received the letter and, not believing, threw the letter away. Nine days later she died.

In 1987, the letter was sent to a young woman in California. It was very faded and barely readable. She promised herself that she would retype the letter and send it on, but she put it aside to do later. She was plagued with many problems including expensive car repairs. The letter did not leave her hands within 96 hours. She finally retyped the letter, as promised, and got a new car.

         REMINDER, SEND NO MONEY. DO NOT IGNORE THIS LETTER!
