L. 0. GRICE, sworn for the State.

My name is L. 0. Grice. I was at the National Pencil Company's

place on Sunday morning, April 27th 1913. A small sized man, defendant

here, attracted my attention, on account of his nervousness.

CROSS EXAMINATION.

I was called as a witness in this case one week after it started. I

told some of my friends about Mr. Frank's nervousness and they advised

me to go to Dorsey. I never knew or saw Mr. Frank before. When we

were told of how the little child was murdered, it excited me some.

RE-DIRECT EXAMINATION.

I don't recall trembling any. I am pretty sure I didn't because my

friend that I went to Opelika with that morning suggested that I was

trembling when I went through there, and I told him I was not. He was not there when I went through the factory and when I told him about it

he said I bet you were scared. He walked around this way a little bit.

He was kind of shaking like that (illustrating). His fingers were trembling.
