Leo Frank is lynched ...



Item # 673491

August 19, 1915

FITCHBURG SENTINEL, Massachusetts, Aug. 19, 1915  The back page has one column heads on the Leo Frank case: "LYNCHING JUST, SAYS WOODWARD" "Mayor of Atlanta Upholds the Killing of Frank" " 'Brave And Loyal Men' - Relentless Slayers of Frank Will Never Be Apprehended".
The Leo Frank case involves his conviction for murdering a young girl, Mary Phagen, but the case was more about antisemitic feelings against Frank.
Ten pages, good condition but somewhat fragile & should be handled carefully.
