The Atlanta Constitution

Thursday, June 19, 1913

When questioned last night as to the truth of the rumor that he will be associated with the defense of Leo M. Frank, indicted for the Mary Phagan murder, Reuben R. Arnold, one of Georgia's most prominent attorneys, refused to either affirm or deny the rumor.

"I am not associated with the defense yet," Mr. Arnold said. "I cannot make any statement at the present time in regard to this matter."

When questioned closely as to whether he would be engaged by the defense later on, Mr. Arnold made the same statement. Luther Z. Rosser, Frank's attorney, would make no statement, one way or the other, as to whether Mr. Arnold would be associated with him.
