Chicago Heights, Ills,
July 30, 1914.

Hon. W.M. Spry, Governors Mansion,
Salt Lake City, Utah.

Dear Sir:

As a westerner, perhaps only
temporarily absent, I protest against
the outrageous conviction of Joe Hill
for murder.

Please aid him to get a new
trial at once.

Yours Truly,
Walter Davis.

P.S.

A free press is ever the beacon-light
of liberty, and will ever lead to a
happier land. Free-speech is liberty
and liberty is free-speech.
