MRS M G MICHAEL, Sworn In For The Defendant, 54th To Testify

Reading Time: 2 minutes [246 words]

MRS. M. G. MICHAEL, sworn for the Defendant.

I live in Athens.

On April 26th, I was at 387 Washington Street at 2 o'clock, at the residence of my sister Mrs. Wolfsheimer.

Mrs. Frank is my niece by marriage.

I am no kin to Mr. Frank.

I saw Mr. Frank about 2 o'clock on April 26th.

He was going up Washington Street towards town when I first saw him.

I remembered it was about 2 o'clock, because my son David was going to the matinee and he had to leave home before 2, and he had just left a few minutes when I saw Mr. Frank.

I was on the front porch when I saw him.

He came up just to the front porch.

He greeted me and asked me about my people at home.

We carried on a casual conversation.

I noticed nothing unusual about him.

I noticed no scratches or marks or any nervousness about him.

He walked up Washington Street to the corner of Glenn and caught the Washington Street car going to town at Glenn Street.

My son Jerome, my nephew Julian Loeb and my sister Mrs. Wolfsheimer were also there and saw him.

CROSS EXAMINATION.

He had not seen me for several weeks.

He didn't know I was in the city, and when he saw me there on the porch he came over to speak to me.

387 Washington Street is three doors above Georgia Avenue.

I saw him take the car at the corner of Glenn and Washington Street.
