Mr. Moyers broadcast a pamphlet addressed to the governor, the speaker of the House of Representatives and the President of the Senat when the Georgia General Assembly convened in 1915. Among the charges against Judge Russell in the pamphlet were neglect of duty, a chronically bad temper, stealing a typewriter and map, having a stenographer write some of his legal opinions and duplicity in discharging Moyers from the position of stenographer. At the request of one of the members of the legislature to the judiciary committee, the Georgia House of Representatives appointed a committee to investigate. Mr. Moyers summoned a number of witnesses to the hearing in the Capitol building including all the judges of the Court of Appeals, a former justice of the Georgia Supreme Court, and the other stenographers and the Clerk of the Court of Appeals. The witnesses denied all the allegations against Judge Russell and described him as an excellent judge and man of integrity. Because this testimony was so favorable to Judge Russell, the committee did not require the judge to testify although he was prepared to do so. Later the investigating committee prepared a report finding the charges against Judge Russell to be groundless.
