JESUS Ac DESCRIBED
BY PILATES MAN
PEN PICTURE SUPPOSED RE-
PORT TO EMPEROR
Wonderful Things IRE ToId-lt Is
Also Declared That His Mother
Was the Best Looking Woman in
Judea-Never Saw Man Like Him

Special Cable to The Herald.
BERLIN, June 9.-The Orient Cor
respondent has just made public the
text of letter written by Publius Len
tulus, an officer of Pontius Pilates
court, to the Roman emperor, which
was recently discovered in the library
of the Lazarist fathers in Rome.
If this letter proves authentic it may
be considered the most important his
torieal document ever discovered re-
gardlng the personality of Jesus 1t
purports to have been written just as
Christ was beginning his preaching
through Judea. 1t reads:
II have learned, o Caesar, that you
desired some information regarding
this virtuous man called Jesus, the
Christ, whom the people consider a
prophet and his disciples regard as the
son of God, creator of heaven and
earth.
Wonderful Things Told of Him
1T is fact that every day one hears
wonderful things told of him. To be
brief, he makes the dead rise and he
heals the sick.
"He is a man of medium size, whose
appearance indicates both great sweet
ness and such an amount of dignity
that one feels I'm looking at him that he
must love him, and at the same time
fear him.
"EIis hair, down to<his ears, Is of
the color of ripe walnuts and hangs
down on his shoulders as a light blond
and clear mass; 1t is parted i'm the mid
die, according to the fashion of the
Nazarenes. His beard, of the same
color as his hair, is curly and although
not very long, is parted in the middle
like his hair.
Could Not Stand His Eyes
His eyes are rather severe and
shine like the sun; it is impossible for
any one to look him long i'm the face |
when he scolds he inspires fear,
but very soon he himself begins to
shed tears. Even in his most severe |
moods he is affable and benevolent. 1t !
is said that no one has ever seen him
laugh, and that he sheds tears very
often.
Everyone finds that his conversa-
tion is agreeable and attractive He is |
not seen very often IN public. and when |
he appears he carries himself modestly |
Majesty in Manner
"Iiis manners are very distinguished;
he is even beautiful. 1t is perhaps be- |
Los Angeles herald., 1906-06-10

cause his mother is the best-looking
woman ever seen in these parts.
IF you wish to see him, o Caesar, as
you wrote me once, let me know and
shall send him to you.
Although he has never pursued any
studies, he is well up in every branch
OF knowledge.
"He goes around barefooted and
without head cover.
Many people make fun of him when
they see him coming, but as soon as
they are in his presence they tremble
and admire him.
"The Hebrews say that they have
never seen man like him, nor heard
teachings like those he imparts.
MANY believe that he is a god, and
others assert that he is thine enemy, o
Caesar.
These naughty Jews give me much
trouble. They say he has never given
trouble to anybody, but that on the
contrary, he tries to make everyone
happy"
