Description

A letter to Governor Miller that asks him to use his influence to give the Scottsboro Boys a just trial. Luke Osburn writes that he does not criticize the state of Alabama and he is not particularly interested in the Scottsboro Boys themselves, but he is especially concerned about the principle of a fair trial, namely "air-tight evidence" and a jury of peers.
