A copy of a letter written by our blessed Lord and saviour Jesus Christ, : and found eighteen miles from Iconium, fifty three years after our Blessed Saviour's crucifixion. Faithfully translated from the original Hebrew copy, now in the possession of Lady Cuba's family at Mesopotamia. This letter was written by Jesus Christ, and found under a great stone round and large, at the foot of the cross. Upon the stone was engraved "Blessed is he that shall turn me over." All people that saw it, prayed to God earnestly, desiring that he would make this writing known unto them, and that they might not attempt in vain to turn it over. In the mean time there came out a little child, about six or seven years of age, and turned it over without assistance, to the admiration of every person who was standing by. It was carried to the city of Iconium, and there published by a person belonging to the Lady Cuba. On the letter was written the commandments of Jesus Christ. Signed by the Angel Gabriel, seventy-four years after Our Saviour's birth..
