Rosser, who upon oath deposes and states that they did not, at the date of the trial, nor until after the Supreme Court had affirmed the case of Leo M. Frank have any knowledge of the facts and circumstances set out in Exhibit A, hereto attached; that these deponents, except Morris Brandon, who did not have active control of the case, and whose firm was represented by L. Z. Rosser, made diligent search to find out all about the connection of James Conley with the murder of Mary Phagan, and these deponents and neither of them had any knowledge of any of the facts and circumstances set out in Exhibit A, hereto attached, at the date of the trial of Leo M. Frank, nor until the date of Exhibit A, hereto attached. These deponents knew nothing about the facts set out in Exhibit A hereto attached, nor could they possibly have known the same by the exercise of any manner of diligence.
