Here is the extracted text from the image:

anything about it if anything like that took place and I did
not hear the sheriff speak to anyone about it; there was no com-
munication at any time or place in any shape, manner or form
with me from the outside after the jury was empaneled and so far
as I know, there was no communication with any juror except let-
ters which came through the sheriff or bailiff and which were by
the court permitted; and I never read any letter, or communication
of any character that had not been opened before it came to me
through the sheriff; and no man ever said anything to me by look,
sign or symbol nor ever undertook to convey any message or give
any indication or intimation of anything from the outside; so far
as I know or believe, this statement is applicable to every other
juror on the case.

H. Shi Gray John M. Holme and M. M. Johnson write A. H.
Henlee as follows (the same being a part of said Henlee's affida-
vit).

"We notice in several Atlanta papers your emphatic denial of
ever having talked with us or made a statement to us of the guilt
or innocence of one Leo M. Frank; you are further quoted as saying
that if we state that you ever said that you believed 'rank guilty'
that we are liars. Also that the whole deposition is a lie out of
the whole cloth; we cannot believe you are correctly quoted as it
is impossible to conceive how you can deny the statements you made
and the intense feeling you manifested when discussing the case
in the presence of the undersigned. We all heard Frank's case
and practically tried him, as it were, and that your discussion
and not only stated that 'Frank was as guilty as H--l', but you
had much to say about Frank being a moral degenerate (your exact
language we cannot use here), and you further stated that you had
been drawn as a juror. We have no disposition to injure you or to
make public your statements, as the writers, Gray and Holmes, have
known you and your family for a number of years, and we do not know
how the attorneys were acquainted with the fact of this conversa-
tion; but your remarks were common talk in the town and there a
number of our people who could have given the information to the
attorneys or others who made affidavits in the case; but let us assure
you that this reluctance to testify in no way changes the facts,
and you shall not be permitted to make statements to the public
press denouncing us as liars in order to protect yourself from the
criticism you justly deserve. We await your answer."

C. F. Huber and A. F. Pennington, who after being duly sworn
depose and say that they are deputies to the Sheriff of Fulton
County, Georgia, and were in charge of the jury in the above stated
case constantly during the trial of said case; that on Friday
afternoon when the jury left the court house they went direct along
Pryor street to the Kimball house; deponent, Huber was in the
rear of the jury, who proceeded northward along Pryor Street
