Q. On your hips at all? A. No.
Q. Well, did he make any effort at all to pick up your lower limbs?
A. Yes sir.
Q. And your dress? A. Yes, sir, while I was sitting down talking
to him.
Q. How long ago was that? A. It has been two years ago in March.
Q. What did you say after staying there? A. Well, did I say?
Q. Yes. A. Why, I just quit. I didn't go back any more until Satur-
day, and I went back for my money and I found out it didn't suit
me. I thought he had the wrong girl.
Q. Have you ever had any experience in this work? A. No sir, he had
no experience.
Q. What kind of experiment did he make you forelady over? A. On the fourth
floor as well as I remember, but there was a foreman there - I don't
remember his name, I didn't remember Mr. Frank's name until his
picture came out in the paper. I didn't think about him any
more; it passed my mind.

JIMMY WRENN, Sworn for the Movant. I know R.P.Barrett and worked
with him at the National Pencil Factory. It is true that I met
Barrett near the corner of Marietta and Forsyth Streets not long
after the trial of Leo M.Frank and talked to him about the case and

and told me that his wife would not permit him to leave the city.
I again conversed with Barrett at a later date about going to New
Orleans for the purpose of securing work, and we met at a certain

me that he was engaged in writing a history of the Frank case, but
complained that his lack of education hampered him, and I told
Barrett that I had a friend named Kelly writing up a history of the
case, who would in all probability assist him. I told Burke of
this, who rented a room at the Kimball House and I brought Barrett
to Burke's room and introduced him as "Mr.Kelly", and I was present
during the entire conversation. I heard Barrett tell Burke that
