0553 Slide – Georgia Supreme Court Leo Frank Appeals Documents, 1913, 1914

Visible Translated Text Is As Follows:

never,at any time,heard Mr.Frank ask Conley to come back on any
Saturday. I have never seen Mr.Frank bring in any women into the
factory. I have never seen Jim Conley guarding or watching the door.
I have never seen Jim take newspapers and look at it, but I don't
know if he read them or not. I have seen him read papers at the
station house like he was reading them.

CROSS EXAMINATION
I was arrested Monday,April 33th,about half past
nine. I saw Mr.Frank before I was arrested. He was on the second
floor.

HENRY SMITH,Sworn for the defendant.
I work at the pencil factory in the metal department. I work
with Barrett. He has talked to me about the reward offered in this
case. He said it was $4500, and he thought if anybody was to get it,
he was to get it, because he found the blood and hair, and he said
he ought to get the first hook at it. He said it six or seven dif-
ferent times.

CROSS EXAMINATION. He would come out of the room counting it
off on his hands. He did that two or three times, and sort of laughed,
counting that imaginary money.

MILTON KLEIN,Sworn for the defendant.
I saw Mr.Frank last Thanksgiving Evening at a dance given by
the B'nai B'rith at the Hebrew Orphan's Home. I also saw him that
same afternoon between half past four and six o'clock. The dance
lasted from eight to half past eleven. Mr.Frank helped Mr.Copeland
and myself give the dance. We were the Committee in charge.

CROSS EXAMINATION. I was down at the jail to see Mr.Frank when the
detectives brought Conley down there. I sent word down that Mr.
Frank didn't care to see Conley, that he didn't care to see any-
one at that time. He knew that Conley was there. I was the Spokesman
for Mr.Frank. He wouldn't see any of the detectives either. Mr.Frank
said that he would see Conley only with the consent of his attorney,
Mr.Rosser. He said for them to send and get Mr.Rosser. Frank's manner
was perfectly natural. He considered Conley in the same light that
he considered any of the city detectives. He said he would not see
any of the city detectives,or Mr.Scott without the consent of Mr.
