Watakatifu wa Agano la Kale Orodha ya Watakatifu Wakristo Orodha ya Watakatifu wa Afrika Orodha ya Watakatifu Wafransisko The Acts (Acta Santorum, Aug., V, 123, and Thierry Ruinart, 559), attributed to St. Paulinus of Nola, state: "Genesius, native of Arles, at first a soldier became known for his proficiency in writing, and was made secretary to the magistrate of Arles. While performing the duties of his office the decree of persecution against the Christians was read in his presence. Outraged in his ideas of justice, the young catechumen cast his tablets at the feet of the magistrate and fled. He was captured and executed, and thus received baptism in his own blood." S. Cavallin, "Saint Genės le notaire", Eranos (Uppsala) 43 (1945:150-75).
