Mother Shipton’s Prophecy.

In answer to a correspondent inquiring for what purports to be “the prophecy of Mother Shipton,” the Inter-Ocean of Chicago, says:—

In Feb. 21, 1878, we “exposed the so-called prophecy of Mother Shipton,” and showed that it was a clever fraud, perpetrated only a few years ago by Charles Hindley, of Brighton, England. We said then that the prophecy was not worth reprinting, as it runs the circuit of the press every year or two. We presume it can be bought at any good book store.”
