A: Due to Georgia's governor making Leo Frank's scheduled execution into a life-term, a mob of twenty five men went to the State Prison Farm in Atlanta Georgia to hang Leo Frank. They broke into the prison where four men grabbed Frank by his arms and legs and dragged him down the stairs with shackles on his wrist. He was then transported 100 miles to Marietta and hung there. Marietta was the home of 13-year-old Mary Phagan, who was believed to be murdered by Leo Frank. In actuality, John Conley was the real perpetrator, Leo Frank being his scapegoat.
Questions:
1. Due to certain quotas limiting all Jews from immigrating, how many weren't allowed into the America?
2. Did Leo Frank's murder in 1915 become America's version of the Dreyfus affair?
