VALDOSTA, - - GEORGIA.
L.
Atl.nta, Ga., Oct. 17.—If these de
fendants are hanged, they will have
been mobbed In the name of the
law." was the startling declaration
made yesterday by- Attorney John
R. Cooper, of Macon, counsel for the
Rawlings’—father and two sons—
sentenced to death for the murder
of the Carter children in Lowndes
county.
Mr. Cooper appeared before
supreme court of Georgia and began
hig arguments before that high trib
unal for a new trial for his three
clients, also a change of venue.
‘‘Those men were not given a fair
trial, in Lowndes county,” he con
tinued, "nor can they get one there.
The horror of the crime committed
there has poisoned the minds of the
people against these three people
whom I believe to be innocent.
"If they are hanged they will have
been mobbed In the name of the
law.”
Mr. Cooper had only begun his
first speech in the six cases before
the court when the body adjourned
for the day’s session. He took up
his argument again the first thing
this morning.
This is one of the biggest, if not
e biggest, criminal cases ever
brought before this court.
J. G. Rawlings and his two sons,
Jesse Rawlings and Milton Rawlings
were convicted of the murder of the
two Carter children—almost babes
in arms—in the early summer, and
are under sentence to be hanged
pending the decision of the court
last resort
Attorney General Hart, who has
charge of tne prosecution of
case in this court, said last v
while reading the brief of the
dence, that it was the most atroc!
ous crime of which he had ever read.
General Hart is in Washington today
where h® is appearing before the'
preme court of the United States,
but before he left he filed with the
court a brief. Solicitor General W.
E. Thomas, of the southern circuit
who secured the convictions,
the city and also is prosecuting the
The record filed in court in these
three cases is the largest on record.
It contains 1,000 pages of legal cap
paper and over 350,000 words.
Cooper’s brief on the law in
case covers 100 pages.
Mr. Cooper has stated that his
three clients will never hang,
know those boys are Innocent,”
said, "and I believe that the father
is, too. He had nothing against those
Carter children. He did not like old
man Carter, but he had nothing
against the children. I repe[ J»
those three are hanged, they *w!
have been mobed in the eyes of the
law.”
