Mr. SPECTER. Would you proceed to tell us, even though it is out of sequence, what those factors, later determined to be, were which led you to assume that it was the wound of entrance? Dr. GREGORY. Yes. Assuming that the wrist wound, which included a shattering fracture of the wrist bone, of the radial bone just above the wrist, was produced by a missile there were found in the vicinity of the wound two things which led me to believe that it passed from the dorsal or back side to the volar. The first of these---- Mr. SPECTER. When you say volar what do you mean by that? Dr. GREGORY. The palm side. Mr. SPECTER. Proceed. Dr. GREGORY. The first of these was evidence of clothing, bits of thread and cloth, apparently from a dark suit or something of that sort which had been carried into the wound, from the skin into the region of the bone. The second of these were two or three small fragments of metal which presumably were shed by the missile after their encounter with the firm substance which is bone. Mr. SPECTER. As to the bits of cloth which you describe, have you had an opportunity earlier today to examine a coat, heretofore identified and marked by a picture bearing Commission Exhibit No. 683, which we will have later testimony on as being Governor Connally's coat? Dr. GREGORY. I have. Mr. SPECTER. And what, if anything, did your examination disclose with respect to the wound of the right wrist? Dr. GREGORY. Well, the right sleeve of the coat has a tear in it close to the margin at a point which is, I think, commensurate with the location of the dorsal surface, the back side of the wrist, forearm where the two may have been superimposed and both damaged by the same penetrating body. Mr. SPECTER. Is the nature of the material of the suit coat the same as that which you found in the wound of the wrist? Dr. GREGORY. It is. As a matter of fact, at the time that the wound was treated, and the cloth was found, the speculation was made as to the kind of--the color of the suit the Governor was wearing and moreover the thread was almost identifiable as mohair or raw silk or something of that nature and entirely consistent with this fabric. Mr. SPECTER. Was the color, which you speculated about, the same as which you see in this jacket? Dr. GREGORY. Yes; it was my impression it was black or either dark blue. Mr. SPECTER. You say there was something in the X-ray work which led you to further conclude that that was the wound of entrance? Dr. GREGORY. Yes. Mr. SPECTER. Will you proceed now to show the Commission those X-rays, please? Dr. GREGORY. This is an X-ray made in the lateral view of the Governor's wrist at the time he was brought to the hospital prior to any surgical intervention. Mr. SPECTER. As to the first X-ray, Dr. Gregory, would you identify the date when it was taken?
