This newspaper has reprinted a document by Dimitriri Pilika, dating back to January 1967, and as its axis, it has one of Skenderbe's letters, found after five centuries of his death. The letter dates back to April 8, 1456. She addresses the Pope in Rome.

The letter in its original is written Latin by the formal side of the protocol with a predetermined formula. It is addressed by one of the most influential men at the Vatican, Dominic Kapralica, who was known as a harsh critic of the Pope and Vatican defects, and was known as a man of clear, tacit ideas against Ottoman occupation.

The content of the letter and what it says has been historically confirmed, during the winter of 1455-1456 Turks collected tens of thousands of soldiers from all sides of the Ottoman Empire and built in Krushevc Serbia on the Morrava River, a cannon factory. That was the first wave of the Turkish military to be released in the weather with Moses Golem at the helm against the gold land. Skenderbeu's information on the number of invaders fully harmonizes with the historical documents of that period.

Skenderbe in this letter displays authority and the way he addresses the Vatican is impressive, he does not ask for help but seeks to ensure the help of peoples, as follows the complete text of the letter:

Very honored father and master with Christ. I write to your honored master that he may know of the events that are happening here. Turk has made extremely big preparations. They say he's just flowing with 14,000 Turks, either against us or against the Danube. We're reportedly close to the border now. In our own strength, we are marching against them. So that we can protect the Turk himself. I beseech your most honourable master to take care of our lord and master, that the help of the peoples may be made sure. Without the enemy /enemy's way to the Danube, we'll lock them behind our backs. But in the future against us, we will resist. Everyone knows that giving up his plan against the enemy is harmful to the Christian religion. For this reason, very honored sir, the company launched and paid under your care: for, otherwise, the Turk is gradually gathering strength. I have sent to his sanctuary my representative, my honored father, the archbishop of Kruja. I'm surprised why he hasn't returned and I haven't heard from so long. The source of this letter is my very close friend, Mr. Paul Angel. So keep your master in good health, happiness, and long life

Left on April 8, 1456
