A BRIGHT SIGN-SIGN NUMBER 197 651 travelled towards the north. It all happened at about five o'clock in the evening.

Terrible earthquakes will take place and deaths shall occur in terrible ways and catastrophes shall descend in ways never before seen until mankind is baffled about what will transpire. All this will happen because of the [spiritual] death of the earth. Mankind
