of Prussia. Emperor Of all Germany

My Dear Wilhelm:
II can call you by that familiar name
for I have always been 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 l created
roughneck known in history as Nero.
He was vulgar character and suited
my purpose at that particular time. In
these modern days a classic demon and
efficient super criminal was needed and

gave YOU abnormal ambition. likewise
an s.r supply Of egotism that YOU
might not discover your own failings:
| twisted your mind to that of a mad
man with certain normal tendencies to
carry YOU by, most dangerous char
acter placed in power; ! gave you the
power of a hypnotist and certain
magnetic force that you might 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
noble impulses that might otherwise
cause me anxiety, but strong sword

squelches all sentiment and pity: I
placed in your soul a deep hatred for
things English, for all nations on earth
| hate England most; wherever Eng
land plants her flag she brings order
out Of chaos and the hated Cross fol-
lows 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

cruel hatred Of your mother because
she was English and left my good
friend Bismark TO fan the fame had

well our work was done. 1t broke your
royal mothers heart. but | gained my
purpose.
The inherited disease Of the Huhen-
zolerns 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 fasten my work

Your opportunity was at hand: YOU
set the world on fire and bells Of hell
were ringing; your rape on Belgium
caused much joy. 1t was the beginning,
the foundation of perfect hell on
earth. the destruction of noble cathe-
drals, and other infinite works OF art
was hailed with JOY in the Internal re-
glons. You made war on friends and
Zoe alike and the murder of civilians
showed my teachings had borne fruit.
Your treachery toward neutral nations
