1871 Prophecies: RUSSIA ATTACKING ENGLAND & AMERICA from 1871

Mr Schultz, a man in his twenties, has a close friendship with Jessee James' brother.



An interesting sidelight on the life of Benjamin Schultz was his friendship with Frank James, the notorious Missouri outlaw, and brother of Jesse James. Benjamin and Frank served under General Price in the confederate Army, both drove ordinance wagons in some battles. Before that Frank James had ridden with Quatrell's men.

Mr Schultz also describes an ancient pyramid he found while walking in Tazewell, Tennessee.

January 18, Wednesday (1870 or 1871)

Early morning cloudy, but at sunrise, it became perfectly clear and the day turned out to be one of remarkable lovliness being warm and pleasant. After having finished the survey which took us until 2 p.m., we returned to Mark Hursts, where dinner was awaiting us and which we downed with the relish of a labourer. On the road, we came to a place where the path led across a hill that was beautifully paved as the streets of any city -- the stones being of various sizes, from a foot square to a huge slab all nicely fit and arranged as though they had been placed there by human hands. I have no doubt they were placed there by a people many ages ago, probably before the ____. This may have been the paved streets of some ancient city, or it resembles more a mammoth wharf, lying in the position of a wharf, being a right inclined plan without the least curvature or undulation in its smooth and unbroken surface of about 200 yards, from the foot to the apex or crest. A great portion of the surface of this giant causeway is entirely bare while other parts are covered with a thin coating that has washed down from the top and lodged in the crevices of the rocks. Here and there are a few sickly cedars, which have pierced their roots into the joints of this closely fitted masonry, or crept like wall ivy along this vast mass, only covered by a mere handful of earth and leaves.

This piece of architecture, lies along the face of the hill, at an angle of about 40 degrees, and facing the morning sun. Could it be possible that this huge mass of masonry, is the side of a pyramid of no less magnitude than that bearing the name of ____, or was this a place of worship, the heathen altar of superstition. Could this have been the sacred place of the promulgation of the revelation of the "____", whether this has been the work of the superstitious and adolatrous aborigines,or anti ___, or whether the formation by nature or nature's God, no mortal can tell. But truly it is a wondrous and mysterious structure, and one that would admit of an examination into its geology and the period of its formation. How wonderful are the works of man, and how much more these of God. Late evening I returned to town.

Wow

I've got an English book of military history from the 1840s. There's a great chapter where it looks to the future, and it predicts that the great powers of the world will be America and Russia, then still irresistibly rising forces. The United States didn't even reach to the Pacific at the time.

This is an interesting thread....

I looked him up and his prophecy doesn't show up anywhere. That link was deactivated and that was a homemade website probably from family member. Wtf?? This prophecy seems pretty damn accurate and is happening today.

Seems to me he was predicting WW1 following the fall of concert of Europe over the Crimean War and the rise of neo-imperialism, which in my mind is very similar to how things are unfolding today.

Not trying to get off topic I love the old predictions, sometimes it shows how people saw the world at that point, in the early 1930s Hilter predicted WW2 would be fought between Britain and the USA.. shows how the landscape changed over a single decade.

Still as strange as it is, for the last 500 years Britain and Russia have traded barbs, fought the great game, constantly going from one major p*ssing contest to another and yet when push has come to shove for the last 500 years both have always ended up on the same side during every single one of the great wars.. made even stranger by the fact that a few of those great wars they started on opposite sides..

It is one of those topics that does leave me scratching my chin... Britain/Russia have always traded barbs over Iran and yet in WW1, Britain and Russia jointly invade Iran.. in WW2 Britain and Soviet Russia again jointly invade Iran... right now I have to wonder if Iranians are looking at their history and eyeing both those nations with suspicion.. In a 3rd world war will Britain and Russia go 3 for 3...

Thanks for the chance to post... hope they are not too far of your intended topic.... WW3 is coming, but to be honest looking at history and these kinds of predictions I am reluctant to suggest who will be on what side..
