| description |
A letter from two "citizens and tax payers of Jefferson County, Alabama" to Governor Miller. Concerned that the state has spent a lot of money on the trial of the Scottsboro Boys and will spend more yet, the two letter-signers offer to perform the Scottsboro Boys' execution for free. They mention that they are electricians and electric operators. The letter is dated March 15, 1931, but this predates the alleged assault by the Scottsboro boys. Presumably the letter should be dated March 15, 1932. |
