This is the eighth Chapter in the 22-part series on the 'Leo Frank Case: Inside Story Of Georgia's Greatest Murder Mystery'.

The Fulton county grand jury was sworn in by Judge W. D. Ellis, emphasizing the need for immediate attention to the Mary Phagan case. The judge called for a thorough investigation and prompt trial of the guilty party. Leo M. Frank, the first witness, testified about his duties as general superintendent at the National Pencil company. He recounted his experience at the factory, where he worked until noon on a holiday.

Frank did not know Mary Phagan's number but did not see her pay envelope after giving it to her. He also did not know the rate she was paid, as he did not open the sealed pay envelope. He made no entry on the payroll after giving the girl her envelope.

Frank also mentioned that Lemmie Quinn, a foreman in the tip department, entered his office five or ten minutes after Mary Phagan left. He then went up to the fourth floor to find Harry Denham, Arthur White, and Mrs. White, two employees of the factory. He returned home and found them working on the third floor.

Frank spent the rest of the afternoon working on the financial sheet. He spoke with Lee at the police station on the Monday following the murder and was told to interview the black man to get a confession. Frank told the watchman that they knew he knew something and could swing them both if he didn't tell.

In summary, the Mary Phagan case demands immediate attention from the Fulton county grand jury and officers of the law. The investigation into the murder of Mary Phagan is ongoing, with the hope of finding a guilty party.

Listen to more testimonies from eye-witnesses, friends, co-workers, professionals, and others regarding the character, demeanor, location of Leo Frank on the days preceding the murder and during the immediate aftermath of when the incident was alleged to have taken place.
