Anonymus 65 is described as a member of the senatorial order and a hypatos: Vita Petr. Atr. 34, p. 139 (συγκλητικός τις, ὕπατος τῇ τύχῃ; ὁ ὕπατος), 37, p. 145 (τοῦ ὑπατικοῦ), 64, p. 189 (τὸν πολλάκις μνημονευθέντα ὕπατον). He took his wife, who was troubled by an unclean demon, to Peter of Atroa (Petros 34) and Petros 34 cured her; he had earlier tried several bishops, all iconoclasts, in vain; he then invited Petros 34 to visit him whenever he wished, and built a small cell nearby for his use, where Petros 34 frequently stayed; the date was early in the reign of Michael II (Michael 10): Vita Petr. Atr. 34, p. 139. Anonymus 65 later told Sabas 1 stories about Petros 34: Vita Petr. Atr. 35-36, cf. 37, p. 145. He had a son, whom Petros 34 cured of leprosy: Vita Petr. Atr. 35, p. 141. He also had a nephew (Anonymus 60), whom Petros 34 cured: Vita Petr. Atr. 36. In the reign of Theophilos 5 he visited Petros 34 at the monastery of Hagios Porphyrios where he was refused communion until he had righted a wrong which he had done and had repented; later he was accused of plotting against the emperor and fled; tricked by a relative Anonymus 66 (τῶν κατὰ σάρκα ἰδιαζόντων τις) who is then described as his son-in-law (ὁ γαμβρὸς αὐτοῦ), into surrendering, he received reassurances of his safety from Petros 34 and escaped with a fine: Vita Petr. Atr. 64, p. 189. He perhaps lived near Kalon Oros in Lydia; cf. Vita Petr. Atr. 31, 39, with 34, p. 139, line 10 ἡσυχάζοντα).
