{OWES. MSB COMEANY
A Citizen Wherever We Serve
BARNESVILLE, GA.—I was one
o( the twelve jurors which sat on
the Leo Frank case. 1 have read
Governor Slaton’s statement which
be has had published and sent over
the state, and in order that the
public may know the real truth
about this case 1 desire to set forth
the facts:
Frank was Indicted by a grand
Jury of Fulton county, which
charged that Mary Phagan was
murdered by Frank by choking her
to death with a cord around her
neck, In April 1913.
He was then brought to trial be
fore a jury of Fulton county. After
a long and tedious trial, Frank was
found guilty by this jury, of which
I was a member. It took about three
or four hours to find a verdict, and
when the Jury came back we were
asked, one by one If that was our
verdict, and we told the Judge that
It was. »
• His lawyers, which were the best
In the country, filed a motion for a
new trial which contained 103
grounds. Judge Roan overruled the
motion and denied Frank a new
trial. Tliut great judge could
have done one of several
things; he could have non
prossed the case; he could have
directed a verdict In favor of
Frank; or he could have granted
nim a new trial; or he could have
changed the penalty, fixed by the
jury as death, to life Imprisonment;
or be could have refused hint a new
trial it he thought Frank had a
fair trial.
Frank then carried his case to
the Supreme Court of Georgia, and
In February, 1914, the Supreme
Court wrote an opinion of over 60
pages, In which they said:
"The evidence supported the
verdict, and there was no abuse
of discretion In refusing a new
trial.”
They filed motion for a re
hearing before the Supreme Court
of Georgia, and on the mo
tion for a rehearing the court said:
“The court IsSmanlmous In
overruling the application for
a rehearing.”
Frank then ■ filed an extraor
dinary motion for a new trial,
on the ground of newly discovered
evidence. This came on to be
tried before that great judge, Hon.
Benjamin Harvey Hill, who denied
the motion for a new trial.
The Frank case was again
carried up before the Supreme
Court of Georgia, which had twice
considered it before, and the court
decided on the motion that;
"It cannot be held that the
discretion of the presiding
Judge In refusing to grant the
extraordinary motion was
abused, or that a ease is made
requiring a reversal."
And every judge of the Supreme
Court this time unanimously held
that Judge Hill was right.
Frank's lawyers, In June, 1914,
filed a motion to set aBlde
the verdict of guilty, which we
bad returned, before the same
Judge Benjamin Harvey Hill, and
he dismissed the motion, and the
case was again carried to the Su
preme Court ot Georgia, and In a
25-page decision every judge of the
Supreme Court of Georgia said:
This court, therefore, will
not again consider those same
questions when sought to be
ra sed by the motion to set
aside the verdict now under
review.”
This was the fourth time that
the Supreme Court h;ul passed on
Frank b case.
»' al J k o. ! a ' v: ' ars went «nto the
■United States Courts, before that
great Confederate veteran, Judge
\Villlam T. Newman, and filed
I'olu
petition tor habeas corpus, so is
to set aside the verdict ot a Fulton
county jury. Judge Newman denied
the motion for habeas corpus as
being without merit.
Then they went to the Supreme
Court of the United States. That |
Court said in Its opinion:
"In all of these proceedings
the State of Georgia through
Its courts has retained juris
diction over him, has accorded
to him the fullest right and op
portunity to be heard accord
ing to the established modes ot
procedure, and now holds him
In custody to pay the penalty
of the crime ot which he has
been adjudged guilty. In our
opinion he is not shown to have
been deprived ot any right
granted to him by the Four
teenth Amendment, or any
other provision of the Constitu
tion or laws ot the United
States; on the coutrnry, he has
been convicted and is now held
in custody under due process
of law, within the meaning of
the Constitution.”
So the Supreme Court of tliel
United States held, the fullest right!
which a man could have in the con-|
duct of his case had been given 1-eol
Frank. Frank’s lawyers were not]
satisfied there. They went to tb

lawyers went to Governor Slnton.l
