A N ANDERSON, Sworn In For The Defendant, 104th To Testify

A. N. Anderson, witness for the Defendant in rebuttal, at the Trial of Leo Frank in the Fulton County Superior Court of Atlanta, Georgia, in 1913 (Testimony Portion From July 28 - August 21, 1913; Closing Arguments August 21-25, 1913)
Atlanta National Bank clerk A. N. Anderson produced Defendant’s Exhibit 50—Leo M. Frank’s personal passbook—and Exhibit 51—every cancelled check Frank drew in April 1913.

April 1 balance: $111.13.
April 18 deposit: $15.00.
Total funds: $126.13.
All checks in Exhibit 51 were drawn against this exact amount.
No other deposits. No other checks.
Book balanced August 11—nothing hidden.

On cross-examination, Anderson admitted he could not rule out other bank accounts, but confirmed the pencil company also banked at Atlanta National and no unusual activity appeared on April 26.
On re-direct, he re-emphasized: these were the only checks Frank wrote all month—every penny accounted for.
Anderson’s ledger-proof testimony shredded the State’s whisper-campaign that Frank had secret cash to bribe witnesses, pay for abortions, or fund immorality. With $126.13 total and every dollar traced, the prosecution’s “rich Jew with hidden money” smear collapsed into a pile of cancelled checks.
