Date
1947-04-21
Description
An appeal to court made by Millard Caldwell, who is attempting to sue Crowell-Collier Publishing Company for libel. The company published an article entitled 'Two Governors on Race Problems," where they claim that Caldwell condoned the lynching of Jesse James Payne, and refused to acknowledge that it was a lynching at all. Caldwell claims he never condoned the murder of Jesse, and claims the article is an act of deliberate malicious intent.
