STATE OF GEORGIA,
VS.
LEO M. FRANK.

In Fulton Superior Court,
Trial begun August 26th, 1913.
Judge L. S. Roan presiding.
Conviction of murder at July Term, 1913
of Fulton Superior Court, and motion
for new trial.

BRIEF OF THE EVIDENCE.

MRS. J. W. COLEMAN, sworn for the state.

I am Mary Phagan's mother. I last saw her alive on
the 26th day of April, 1913, about a quarter to twelve, at home,
at 146 Lindsay street. She was getting ready to go to the
pencil factory to get her pay envelope. About 11:30, she
ate some cabbage and bread. She left home at a quarter to
twelve. She would have been fourteen years old the first day
of June, was fair complected, heavy set, very pretty, and was
extra large for her age. She had on a lavender dress, trimmed
in lace and a blue hat. She had dimples in her cheeks.

CROSS EXAMINATION.

The blue hat that was seen here was not the little
girl had on that day. It had some pale blue ribbon and some
flowers when she left home. It was a small bunch of little
pink flowers right in the center. We live two blocks from the
street car line. There is a store there at the the place she
usually gets on the car kept by Mrs. Smith. Epps is a
neighbor of ours. He was a friend of Mary's. He wasn't the
special friend of hers.

MRS-DIRECT EXAMINATION.

These are the clothes that she wore on that day (state's
Exhibit "M").

GEORGE EPPS, sworn for the state.

I live right around the corner
