Visible Translated Text Is As Follows:

Charles J. Moore makes the following affidavit, deposing and
saying as follows: that he is an attorney at law,occupying room 501 on
the 3rd floor of the Kiser Building at the corner of Hunter and Pryor Streets;that on Friday,August.20th,deponent was in his office
and saw the jury come out of the court house entrance at about 6 P.M.
that soon after Mr.Dorsey appeared in the court house entrance and a
great cheering and yelling occurred by the crowd immediately opposite
the entrance,and afterwards the crowd yelled "Hurrah for Dorsey",and
the volume of the yells were so great that they could have been heard
many blocks away;that they threw up their hats and gave other demon-
strations;that at the time of the yelling the jury was just crossing
the street toward the Gorman cafe,not fifty feet away from the en-
trance,and in the opinion of deponent must have heard the cheering and
the words "Hurrah for Dorsey",because they could be plainly heard;
that he was in his office on Saturday,Aug.25,when the jury came out
of the court house at about one o'clock,and he heard yelling and
cheering when Mr.Dorsey appeared a few minutes afterwards.
Deponent
did not see the jury at the time of the yelling,but it occurred so
soon after the jury came out of the court house that in the opinion of
deponent the jury must have heard the cheering and the words that were
yelled; that since the trial has been in progress,he has heard several
parties making threats of personal violence against the accused in the
event of an acquittal; that these parties were loitering in and around
the court house entrance and making threats that if the jury did not
hang Frank,that they would pay the jury the compliment of sitting on
the case, and if the jury did not do it, Richard Burton, that's what the
people recalls the names of the court house entrance and that Frank
among the crowd.

D. Rosinsky makes the following affidavit deposing and saying
as follows: That on Friday,Aug.22nd,and Saturday,Aug.25,he was stand-
ing near the corner of Hunter and Pryor Streets,in the City of

the Old City Hall Building,now used as a court house,there was loud
