LEO M. FRANK ID
DIE ME 11. IS
NEW SENTENCE
Atlanta Youth Once Again
Given Death Penalty for
Girl’s Murder.
HE PLEADS HIS INNOCENCE
Standing Before Court Pris-
oner Asserts He Did Not
Kill Mary Phagan.
ATLANTA Ga.. May 10.—Leo M.
Frank was sentenced to be hanged on
Tuesday. June 22 for the murder of
Mary Phagan a factory girl. Sent-
ence was passed by Judge Ben H.
Hill of the Fulton County Superior
Court. Man' Phagan was killed on
April 36 1913. Before sentence was
pronounced Frank made a state-
ment to the court reiterating his de-
clarations of Innocence.
Frank when brought before Judge
Hill to be re-septenced made this
statement:
"Again I stand before you. Again
I can but reiterate Chat I am inno-
cent of the murder of Mary Pha-
gan. I have absolutely no guilty
knowledge of that tragic occurrence.
"I am innocent of this charge and
I assert that the record of the evi-
dence conclusively proves this. No
appellate tribunal has ever passed
upon this evidence. The only judge
who has ever heard it stated he had
the most serious doubts as to my
guilt.
It Will Not Avenge Giri.
"My execution will not avenge
Mary Phagan's death. A life will
have been taken for a life but the
real culprit will not have paid the
penalty. I will suffer for another's
crime.
'■My trust ts In God who knows
that my protestations of Innocence
are the truth. At some future date
the whole mortal world will realize
it It is the knowledge that Gos
knows it now and that the world will
know It some day that inspires me
as I stand before your honor and as
I face the future.
“Anything else I might say at this
time would be but an elaboration of
my words to the court Yet I am
fully alive to the fact that my posi-
tion is most precarious. It is a situa-
tion far removed from anything my
life and mental attitude could have
bespoken. IC Is hideous but at the
same time eo unreal eo incongruous.
"Ii is fundamental In human life
to want to live. This desire is to ex-
ists ingrained in all of us—it is the
basic morality of all who live. To
those who have the proper Ideals
of living life without honor Is in-
sufferable. This is the message of
theology and ethics.
He Wants to Dive.
“In the light of the whole truth I
know —and the Almighty knows —
that the morality of my position in
this case is unassailable. This being
so my complete exoneration of this
terrible charge lies In the future.
When that day arrives I shall be vin-
dicated —and if I am alive I will be
enabled to enjoy freedom and
honor.
“Therefore. I want to live.
"The full truth and all of the
facts In the case when thej' come to
light as some day they will will
prove to the world that my asser-
tion of Innocence is the truth.
The legal arena is closed to me.
The bar Is placed forever against
further legal process. Yet the Issue
of guilt or Innocence has been be-
fore but one court that in which
the jury sat. All subsequent appeals
were made upon alleged legal and
judicial errors not upon the facts of
the evidence. Since having heard the
case no count of inquiry or review
has sifted the evidence. No decision
of any appeals court undertook to
predicate an opinion on the record of
the testimony and evidence. The
doubt of the trial Judge as to my
guilt still remains.”
