doment give any date when I was supposed to have made the re-
marks attributed to me; but I was not in Albany from June 2nd.,
and 3rd., 1913 at which time I was there, until September 18th.,1913;
if at any time between April 26th. 1913, and July 28th., 1913, I
ever saw Moak Farkas in Albany or elsewhere and had a conversation with
him, I have absolutely forgotten it; I do know that I did not see
this man Moak Farkas on my trip to Albany June 2nd., 1913 and June 3
1913; I did see Sam Farkas at his place of business and sold him
a bill of buggies; I did see Moak Farkas on my visit to Albany
on Sept.18th.,1913, but knowing that the said Moak Farkas and
said Leo M. Frank were of the same race and relation, and not
wishing to hurt his feelings, I did not mention the Frank case,
or the fact that I had been a juror in the case; THAT I have kept
an expense book showing fully, places visited and amounts ex-
pended; attached hereto is a book ending June 6th.,1913, same
being marked "Exhibit B"; this book was written up from day to
day; the entries in said books were made by me and are correct;
and after having refreshed my memory from said entries, I swear
positively as to my whereabouts on the dates set out therein;
THAT I have read the affidavit purporting to have been signed by
Julian A.Lehman; said Lehman states that I had a conversation with
him on June 2nd., 1913, between Atlanta,Ga. and Experiment,Ga;
in the first place on June 2nd., 1913, I was approximately two
hundred and twenty miles from either Aylanta,Ga. or Experiment,
Ga; and in the second place, I never at any time or place, in
anybody's presence, made use of any such language as attributed
to me as having been used in the presence of said Lehman on June
2nd.,1913; On June 1st., which was Sunday, I was at Eufaula, Ala.
as is shown by entries which I made in the book attached, marked
"Exhibit B", and which entries I know to be true; I was at Eufaula,
Ala., on the morning of June 1st., from which place I went to
Cuthbert, Ga., thence to Edison,Ga., spending the night at the
hotel at the last named place; On June 2nd., I went from Edison,
Ga., to Blakely,Ga., by way of Arlington, Ga., thence to Albany,
Ga
