C. J. GRAHAM, Sworn for the State. I am an attorney at law. I have represented Annie Maud Carter in the Criminal Division of the Superior Court of Fulton County. I have had occasion to interview members of her race and people with whom she mingles and associates. I have heard a great deal of her among the white race. I know her general character and reputation; the same is very bad. I would not believe her on oath.

J. X. DONALDSON, Sworn for the State. I know Annie Maud Carter and knew her when I was connected with the city Stockade as Deputy Foreman. I know her general character and reputation; the same is bad and I would not believe her on oath./

JULIA CARTER, Sworn for the State. I am the mother of Annie Maud Carter,who was recently in Jail in Fulton County. I visited my daughter Annie Maud Carter twice a week while she was in the County Jail. I usually found her on the fifth or top floor where she was ironing or in the medicine room. Sometimes I saw her sitting around on the first floor. While visiting my daughter, Annie Maud Carter,I also met a white man,whom the prisoners called Dr.Wren. I would often see him on the top floor. I have heard him talking to Annie Maud Carter about Jim Conley and Dr.Wren told her she ought to marry Jim Conley, that he was going to have plenty of money some day. I remember while I was there Dr.Wren brought her notes upon two occasions and he told her he brought them from Jim Conley. She read the notes to me,but there was nothing bad in them, and they were love notes. I do not know whether or not Conley wrote them,except what Dr.Wren said. I can not read myself very well and did not read the notes. I have since the last few days been trying to find my daughter and I have been to see a number of people whom I tried to find out from. I have been to see a Mr.Jacobs who runs a pawnshop on Decatur Street and he told me that she was in safe hands and would not be mistreated. I went to an office in the Fourth National Bank Building, and talked with some men Mr.Haas' office. I understood them to be Mr.Haas, Mr.Arnold and Mr.Burns. I found this place by the direction of this Mr.Jacobs,who is a pawnbroker and Jew on Decatur Street. He showed me what office to go to. I told them I was the mother of Annie Maud Carter and wanted to see my child, and they told me that whenever I got ready to go, they would get me a ticket and
