Frankie’s Testimony
[DORSEY, spoken]
So, Frankie, you say you rode downtown with Mary on the English Avenue streetcar?
[FRANKIE, spoken]
Yes, sir. Mornin' of the Memorial Day Parade.
[DORSEY, spoken]
And can you tell us what happened?
[FRANKIE, spoken]
Well, she got up to go and she looked kinda funny. And I said— Somethin' wrong, Mary?
[MARY, spoken]
Mr. Frank.
[FRANKIE, spoken]
Mr. Frank what?
[MARY, spoken]
Looks at me.
[FRANKIE, spoken]
Looks at you? Everybody looks at you.
[MARY, spoken]
Not like Mr. Frank.
[FRANKIE, spoken]
What's he do?
[MARY]
He calls my name
I turn my head
He got no words to say
His eyes get big
My face gets red
And I want to run away
And he looks...
And I wait...
And he smiles...
[DORSEY, spoken]
Iola Stover, will you describe for the court Mr. Leo Frank's manner in the factory?
