Lynching of Leo M Frank and unknown perpetrators
Marietta reports details of the Frank lynching scene with witnesses unable to identify any suspects while officials say progress is limited. Physicians confirm death by strangulation as a Cobb County commissioner notes several autos seen along Rosewell road but cannot identify occupants. Also, a separate Pa. item describes a family living in woods after desertion and eviction, seeking aid.
