The Leo Frank Case: Mother Hears of Murder - Inside Story of Georgia's Greatest Murder Mystery
This is the fourth Chapter in the 22-part series on the Leo Frank Case: Inside Story Of Georgia's Greatest Murder Mystery.
Mary Phagan, a factory girl, was last seen alive on Memorial Day, a day she had spent working hard. She planned to go to town after dinner and watch the Confederate Veterans parade. She left her home and boarded a streetcar to the city, where she met George Epps, a newsboy she had always liked. Epps found her mother worried, as she had not met him as she had promised. Mary's stepfather, J. W. Coleman, went to town to find her, but never saw her face. He consoled her and suggested she might have gone to Marietta to visit her grandmother.
On April 27, Mary's mother received news of her daughter, Helen Ferguson. She cried and wept, and the news was shared with the Phagan family. Mr. Coleman went to town to see the body of the girl, which was positively identified by an assistant. The largest crowds ever seen a dead body in Atlanta's history were present at the funeral, where thousands of people viewed the corpse.
The body was laid to rest in Marietta, Georgia, on April 29. On May 7, the body was exhumed, and Dr. H.F. Harris of the state Board of Health examined the stomach and other vital organs. The results of the probe were kept a secret until the trial. Hear about the shock and reaction of the mother at the news of her daughter's death and other vivid details in this chapter of the story.
