Now Bumpy. Frumpy and Grumpy
wanted to talk over what Sammy Jay
had said to them. They hadn't expect
ed Granny back SO soon. and it quite
upset them. OF course. If all that
Sammy Jay had said was true they
wanted nothing to do with Old Granny
Fox. But now that she was back and
so pleasant and smiling 1t was hard
to believe that Sammy Jay knew what
he was talking about. Besides. they did
so want to see the things Granny had
promised to show them. 1t was very
bothersome to have to make up their
minds right away.
Couldn't we wait until tomorrow ?"
asked Bumpy in a timid voice.
I'm afraid not" replied Granny.
"You see l have to 60 over to the OLD
Pasture tomorrow. and that is very
long way from here"

Whatever you decide to do
Make up your mind to see ii through.
This is a rule that Old Granny Fox
always tries to live up to. 1t was so
now. She made up her mind that she
was going to dine on those three little
Possums, Bumpy. Frumpy and Gru1n-
py. or one of them atleast. So hardly
had Sammy Jay spread his wings and
flown away when back up the Lone
Little Path .throtted Granny Fox. If
Bumpy. Frumpy and Grumpy had
been wiser in the ways of the Great
World they might have suspected that
Granny had not been so far away, but
that she knew when Sammy Jay left.
But they were not wise and they didn't
once think that 1t was bit queer that
Granny was back so promptly after
Sammy left. The truth is Granny
was far too smart to give them time
to think over and talk over what
Sammy might have said to them.
She was as pleasant and smiling as
have seen her you never would have
imagined that anything had happened
to upset her plans. "My business did
not take me as long as thought it
would so am back sooner than
expected to be-" said she, looking UP
at the three little Possums quite as II
she thought they would be as glad
to see her as she was to see them. 81

JIM CONLEY DENIES
 WRITING LETTERS
Released From Jail After Serving Sentence of One Year as Accessory
 to Phagan Murder

Atlanta. June 2-James Conley, negro factory sweeper. who last night com pleted his sentence of one year as ac- cessory to the murder of Mary Phagan. today denied that he had written the Anna Maud Carter letters. which played such an important part in Leo M. Frank s motion for a new trial.
 Conley's denial, made today in the pres ence of Solicitor Dorsey, was the first intimation that Conley had not been the author of these letters, by which Frank 8 lawyers sought to show that Conley had written the famous murder notes' found beside Mary Phagan's body without as- sistance from anyone. Conley had tes- tified at Franks trial that the notes were written by him at Franks dictation.
 Franks attorneys claimed that the ex- pressions and general form of dfction in the Carter letters were identical with those of the murder notes" and that Conley had written both independent of outside suggestion
 Conley stated today that while he had received letters from the Carter woman. he had never replied to them and that he knew nothing about the letters of which he was reported to be the author, further than what he had read in the newspapers.
 The negro called voluntarily at Solici- tor Dorseys office today and made the statement.
