Ancient Account
Describes Jesus
Of Nazareth
EDITORS NOTE: The follow-
ing is a description of Jesus by
Publius Lentulus, Governor of
Judea. addressed to Tiberius Cae-
sar, Emperor of Rome. Found
in an excavated city written in
Aramaic on stone . . .
"There lives, at this time, in
J "idea, a man of singular virtue
whose name is Jesus Christ, whom
the barbarians esteem as a pro-
phet. but his followers love and
ador< him as the offspring of the
immortal God. He calls back the
dead from the graves, and heals
all sorts of diseases with a word
or a touch.
Me i* a tall man, and well
shaped, of an amiable and rev-
erend aspect; his hair of a color
that can hardly l e matched, th«
color of chestnut full ripe, falling
in waves about his shoulders.
His forehead high, large and
imposing; his cheeks without spot
or wrinkle, beautiful with a lovely
red; his nose and mouth formed
with exquisite symmetry; his
beard thick and of a color suitable
to his hair reaching below his
chin His eyes bright blue, clear
and serene, look innocent, digni-
fied, manly, and mature. In pro-
portion of body, most perfect and
captivating, his hands and arms
most delectable to behold.
He rebukes with majesty, coun-
sels with mildness, his whole ad-
dress, whether in word or deed,
being eloquent and grave. No
man has seen him iaugh, yet his
manner is exceedingly pleasant;
but he has wept in the presence
of men. He is temperate, modest
and wise; a man, for his extra-
ordinary beauty and divine per-
fections, surpassing the children
of men in every sense."
Proclamation:

March Rainfall
Is Less Than Inch
March rainfall in the Bastrop
area was less than an inch, as re-
corded by the rain guage at the
Bastrop Count;, Courthouse The
total for the month was only .70
inch.
As a result of the lack of suf-
ficient nv-.-'ure, the top soil is
getting very dry. especially due
to the high winds c xpe rienced dur-
ing March.
Pastures are also beginning to
suffer as the grass is showing
some signs of wilting.
Grass planting in pastures is
also being hampered by the dry
weather. Conditions for sprigging
cali for enough moist m in the
ground to keep the sprigs from
drying up and dying.
Here is the rainfall daily re-
cord for Bastrop.
March 12 .20 in.
March 23 .10 in.
March 28 .40 in
TOTAI .70 in.
