Another in our series of new transcriptions of contemporary articles on the Leo Frank case.
Atlanta Constitution
August 21st, 1913
The opening argument in the Frank trial will be made at 9 o’clock this morning by Attorney Frank B. Hooper, associate counsel for the defense.
Two hours probably will be occupied by each man in the closing arguments. Judge Roan, in a short talk to the attorneys for each side, cautioned them against long argument, and insisted that each man dwell only on the facts of the case and the evidence.
No time limit was set, although the prediction is widespread that no more than two hours will be occupied by each man.
