EXHIBIT OC.

Georgia Walton County.

State of Georgia,

vs. In the Superior Court of Fulton County, Ga.

Leo M. Frank.

Before me, an officer authorized under the laws of Ga., to administer oaths, personally appear J. J. Nunnally and W. L. Ricker, of Monroe, Ga., who being duly sworn, depose and say on oath as follows:

That they have seen in the public prints that A. H. Henslee, one of the jurors in the Frank case, admits having made certain statements as to Frank's guilt of the murder of Mary Phagan, but says these statements were made after the trial of Leo M. Frank, and not before.

These deponents say that, so far as they know, the said Henslee has not been in Monroe, Ga., since the trial of Leo M. Frank, and they reiterate the statement that all the statements made in their hearing by said Henslee, and testified about by these deponents of September 27th, 1913, were made before the commencement of the trial of Leo M. Frank for the murder of Mary Phagan on July 28th, 1913, to the best of these deponents' recollection, these statements were made in June, 1913, although as to the exact month these deponents say not.

J. J. Nunnally,
W. L. Ricker,

Sworn to and subscribed before me this, October 10, A. D. 1913.

J. B. Shelnutt, Clerk Sup. Court Walton County, Ga.
