United States, Georgia, Baldwin County, Milledgeville, 33.08014, -83.2321United States, Georgia, Fulton County, Atlanta, 33.749, -84.38798United States, Virginia, 37.54812, -77.44675Haas, Herbert J., 1884-1953Frank, Lucille Selig, 1888-19571915Correspondence (page 1) from Leo Frank's appeals attorney Herbert Haas to Virginia businessman Bernard S. Liebman thanking him for supporting Leo Frank's cause; to Leo Frank at Milledgeville State Farm Prison (page 2) advising him against speaking to reporters or newspapers, making sure his newspaper subscriptions were arriving, and hoping he avoids getting typhoid while in prison (page 3). The letters show that Haas regularly sent stamps, telephoned and corresponded with Frank's family (page 4), even instructing Lucille Frank (Frank's wife) on how to remain in favor with the prison staff and nurses sent to care for Frank (by paying them) after he was attacked in prison (page 5). He advises Lucille Frank (page 7) not to use Yiddish (she had referred to money as "muzzumah"[a dialect variation of "mezumonem"]) on a postcard that could be seen in the open, for fear of an antisemitic reaction to her use of Yiddish and asks her (pages 7-8) to report daily on Leo Frank's condition in prison, so that he can respond accurately to inquiries. A letter written by Lucille Frank (page 8) asking attorney [Morris] Brandon to review two letters and respond with comments, if necessary. Resources consulted: Melnick, J. Paul. (2000).
