The Rome correspondent of the London Express says an old parchment has been found at Caulonia, in the ancient hermitage of a Capuchin friar who died a century ago.
The document was deciphered with great difficulty. It was written by a pious hermit of the ancient Convent of Capuchins, founded in 1552, who died in 1768, and contains a prophecy for the period from 1763 to the year 2000.
The strange document foretells for the year 1792 the outbreak of a revolution in France and the invention of a “new machine” under which the king and queen would perish.
A terrible war which will devastate Europe is foretold in 1915, to be followed by famine in the whole world. Earthquakes inundations and other cataclysms are the toll of the year 1925, in which three suns will appear.
Sicily will be swallowed up by the sea in 1960 and Naples will be destroyed by earthquakes in 1970. The whole of the East will be ravaged by a terrible plague in 1980.
There will be an eclipse of the sun and the earth will be plunged in darkness in 1990, the prophecy says. After six days the first star will appear; mortality will be very heavy throughout the world; the cities will be deserted.
In 2000—the end of the world.
From page 3 of The Concord Daily Tribune, April 5, 1926
Just sticking to the facts here, Caulonia is a town in the Calabria region of southern Italy. AI couldn’t find any “ancient document” predicting three suns or the end of the world in 2000 in any Italian archival catalog. It’s a sunny day in Raleigh but it’s not “three suns” sunny. And the year is 2026, so apparently the end of the world is running late.
