Leopold and Loeb's ransom note for Bobby Franks
Dear Sir:
Proceed immediately to the back platform of the train. Watch the east side of the track. Have your package ready. Look for the first LARGE, RED, BRICK factory situated immediately adjoining the tracks on the east. On top of this factory is a large, black watertower with the word CHAMPION written on it. Wait until you have COMPLETELY passed the south end of the factory - count five very rapidly and then IMMEDIATELY throw the package as far east as you can.
Remember that this is your only chance to recover your son.
Yours truly,
GEORGE JOHNSON
