Letter from Thomas Goode Jones to William Loeb

Subject(s): Roosevelt, Theodore, 1858-1919

Judge Thomas Goode Jones sends William Loeb a report of a grand jury from Huntsville, Alabama, and hopes that he will show it to President Roosevelt at some point when he is not working. Jones comments that “the great mass of the people are right,” and that although the jury was made up of different political parties, they were unanimous in denouncing the actions of the mob.
