Description

Transcription: My dear Lillie
Do you mind if you receive this. This prayer etc.etc. was given me by one of the nurses etc. here etc.etc.
“An ancient prayer
Oh Lord, I implore thee to bless all mankind. Bring us to Thee. Keep me to dwell in Thee.”

This prayer is to be sent all over the world. It was said in ancient days that all who wrote it should be free from calamity, and all who passed it would meet with some calamity or misfortune. Copy it and send it to nine friends in nine days and on the tenth day you shall meet with some great joy. Do not break the chain.
Please send this prayer along to nine of your friends as a part of the general plan and may the great joy mentioned in the letter and other good things come to you on the tenth day.
Your loving brother
Harry
Please do not send further parcels etc etc
