AN RAF OFFICER RECEIVED $47,000.  WHILE IN THE PHILLIPINES GENE
WELCH LOST HIS WIFE 11 DAYS AFTER RECEIVING THIS LETTER.  HE
HAD FAILED TO CIRCULATE THE LETTER.  BEFORE HER DEATH HE
RECEIVED $7,775.00 AFTER CIRCULATING IT JUST PRIOR.

PLEASE SEND 20 COPIES AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS IN FOUR DAYS.  THE
CHAIN COMES FORM VENEZUELA, AND WAS WRITTEN BY SOUL ANTHONY
DEGROUP, A MISSIONARY FROM SOUTH AFRICA.  SINCE THE COPY MUST
TOUR THE WORLD, YOU MUST MAKE 20 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 NOTE THE FOLLOWING - CONSTANTINE DINE RECEIVED THE CHAIN IN
1985.  HE ASKED HIS SECRETARY TO MAKE 20 COPIES AND SEND THEM
OUT. A FEW DAYS LATER HE WON THE LOTTERY OF OVER 20 MILLION
DOLLARS.  CARLO DADDIT, AN OFFICE EMPLOYEE, RECEIVED THE LETTER
AND FORGOT IT HAD TO LEAVE HIS HANDS WITHIN 96 HOURS.  HE LOST
HIS JOB.  LATER, AFTER FINDING THE LETTER AGAIN, HE MAILED 20
COPIES.  A FEW DAYS LATER HE GOT A BETTER JOB.  DALAN FAIRCHILD
RECEIVED THE LETTER AND, NOT BELIEVING, HE THREW THE LETTER
AWAY, NINE DAYS LATER HE DIED.

IN 1967 THIS LETTER WAS RECEIVED BY A YOUNG WOMAN IN CALIFORNIA
IT WAS VERY FADED AND BARELY VISIBLE.  SHE PROMISED HERSELF
THAT SHE WOULD RE-TYPE THE LETTER AND SEND IT ON, BUT SHE PUT
IT ASIDE TO DO LATER AND FORGOT.  SHE WAS PLAGUED BY VARIOUS
PROBLEMS, INCLUDING EXPENSIVE CAR REPAIRS.  THE LETTER DID NOT
LEAVE HER HANDS IN 96 HOURS.  SHE FINALLY TYPED THE LETTER AS
PROMISED AND WITHIN DAYS SHE WON A BRAND NEW AUTOMOBILE.

REMEMBER, SEND NO MONEY AND DO NOT SIGN THIS.
