Unsound Mind to be Advanced in Hazlehurst Case
Raxley Georgia February 20 Special Sheriff Crapps of Appling county and others brought Frank Cook who killed his wife near Hazlehurst last Saturday. Cook claims he is 2% years old but seems not over 17 and is capable of answering questions. He says he killed his wife to quiet his mind and feels better afterward. Many doubt his sanity though his friends hired Hon. BB Graham to defend him. Defense may argue the confession to Rogers and Pace lacks value but Sheriff Crapps believes Cook is of unsound mind.
