''To Wilhelm Won Hohenzollern, King
of Prussia, Emperor. of All Germany
and Envoy Extraordinary Of Al
mighty Cod:
my dear Wilhelm:
al can call yoa by that familiar
name, for ! have always been very
close to you, much closer than you
could ever know.
From the time that you were yet
an undeveloped being in your mothers
womb have shaped your destiny for my
own purpose.
''In the days of Rome created a
roughneck known in history as Nero.
He was vulgar character and suited
my purpose at that particular time.
In these modern days classic demon
and efficient super-criminal was need
ed, and as l know the Hohenzollern
blood, picked you as my special in
strument to place on earth as an annex
of hell. | gave abnormal ambition,
likewise an oversupply of egotism that
you might not discover your own fail.
ings; | twisted your mind to that of
mad man with certain normal tenden-
cies to carry you by; most dangerous
character placed in power; gave you
the power of hypnotist and certain
magnetic force that you may sway
your people. am responsible for the
deformed arm that hangs helpless on
your left, for your crippled condition
embitters your life and destroys all no.
BILE Impulses that might otherwise
cause me anxiety; but your strong
sword arm is driven by your ambition
and squelches all sentiment and pity /;
/ placed in your soul deep hatred for
all things English, for of all nations
on earth hate England most; where
ever England plants her flag she brings
order out of chaos and the hated cross
follows the Union Jack; under her
rule wild tribes become tillers of the
soil and in due time practical citizens; |;
she is the great civilizer of the globe
and ! hate her. | planted in your soul
cruel hatred for your mother because
she was English and left my good
friend Bismark to fan the flame ! had
kindled. Recent history proves how
we'll our work was done. 1t broke
your royal mothers heart, but gained
my purpose.
1.-THE inherited disease of the Hohen-
zollerns killed your father. just as it
will kill you, and you became the ruler
of Germany and tool of mine sooner
than expected.
''To assist you and further hasten
my work sent you three evil spirits,
Nietzsche, Treitschke and later Bern
hardi, whose teachings inflamed the
youths of Germany, who in good time
would be willing and loyal subjects and
eager to spill their blood and pull your
chestnuts, yours and mine; the spell
has been perfect-you cast your ambi-
tious eyes toward the Mediterranean,
Egypt, India and the Dardanelles and
you began your great railway to Bag
dad, but the ambitious archduke and
his more ambitious wife stood in your
way. 1t was then that ! sowed the
seed in your heart that blossomed into
the assassination of the duke and his
wife and all hell smiled when it was
how cleverly you saddled the crime on
Serbia. saw you set sails for the
fjords of Norway and | knew you
would prove an alibi. How cleverly
done, so much like your noble grand
father, who also secured an assassin to
remove old King Frederick of Den
mark, and later robbed that country of
two provinces that gave Germany an
opportunity to become naval power.
Murder is dirty work, but it takes a
Hohenzollern to make way and get
by.
"Your opportunity was at hand you
set the world on fire and bells of hell
were ringing; your rape Of Belgium
caused much joy,it was the beginning,
the foundation of a perfect hell on
earth, the destruction of noble cathed-
rails and other infinite works of art
was hailed with joy in the internal
regions. You made war on friends and
foe alike and the murder of civilians
showed my teachings had borne fruit.
Your treachery toward neutral nations
hastened universal upheaval, the
thing most desired. Your under-sea
warfare is a master stroke, from the
smallest mackerel pot to the great
Lusitania you show no favorites as a
war lord you stand supreme, for you
have no mercy; you have no considera.

You have killed and robbed the people

Wilhelm, you are wonder. You

generations.
