Tertius, as mentioned in Romans 16:22, we understand to have been the Apostle Paul's stenographer. We're unsure why Paul often didn't write his letters by his own hand; some think that it may have been his weak eyes ("his thorn in the flesh"). But he sometimes did write a salutation (appending some special greeting by his own hand) to his letters ( 1 Corinthians 16:21, Colossians 4:18, 2 Thessalonians 3:17).
