Warren Commission (05 of 26): Hearings Vol. V (of 15)
United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. REVILL. But this one here, was not placed in that book?
Mr. DULLES. In the original of Commission Exhibit No. 709 that you have
just given us prior to the notary public's inscription, subscription to
it, there is red ink underlining of Lee Harvey Oswald and James Hosty.
When was that put on this copy?
Mr. REVILL. I don't know, sir. Captain Gannaway must have done that
because he had the thing and then later gave it to me. Now, the reason
for it being underlined, I don't know. On the original--yes; I do.
Mr. DULLES. Would that be for filing purposes?
Mr. REVILL. Yes, sir; I do. Normally we retain the original copy of
every report for our file copy, but I did not have the file copy or the
original report so our clerk in indexing this underscored the name and
the address and she made cards for the index files.
Mr. DULLES. That was a card, also, under the file of James Hosty?
Mr. REVILL. Yes, sir.
Mr. DULLES. His name is also underlined in red?
Mr. REVILL. His name indexed; yes, sir.
Mr. DULLES. In your original copy of Exhibit 709?
Mr. REVILL. No, sir; not the original copy, because the original----
Mr. DULLES. The carbon copy, excuse me, the carbon copy of 709.
Mr. REVILL. Yes, sir.
Mr. DULLES. And I assume that Commission's Exhibit No. 709 which is a
photostat is a photostat of the original rather than of the carbon copy?
Mr. REVILL. Yes, sir; and I don't know who made the photostat, I did
not. I assume Chief Curry had it made.
Mr. RANKIN. Mr. Reporter, we are giving the number 838 to the carbon
copy of Exhibit 709 that Lieutenant Revill has just produced.
The CHAIRMAN. You propose to take a photostat of this and return this
report to the lieutenant?
Mr. RANKIN. If we may, Mr. Chief Justice, this is the only copy that I
have.
The CHAIRMAN. You should have it back.
Mr. REVILL. That is fine.
The CHAIRMAN. We will take a photostat and return this to you then.
Mr. REVILL. I appreciate that.
The CHAIRMAN. It may be admitted in that manner.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 838 for
identification, and received in evidence.)
The CHAIRMAN. I think that is all. Thank you, again, lieutenant.
Mr. REVILL. I will attempt to find out on that address, and I shall let
Mr. Sorrels know, with Secret Service.
Mr. RANKIN. Yes; that will be fine.
The CHAIRMAN. Thank you.
TESTIMONY OF V. J. BRIAN
The CHAIRMAN. Come right in, sir. Detective Brian, the purpose of
today's hearing is to hear the testimony of Lieutenant Revill and
yourself with particular regard to an alleged conversation with Special
Agent James P. Hosty, Jr. of the Federal Bureau of Investigation
claimed to have occurred on November 22, 1963, in the afternoon and
also concerning the facts surrounding the discussion of Commission
Exhibits Nos. 709 and 711. 709 is the affidavit of Lieutenant Revill,
and 711 is the affidavit that you made concerning that matter.
Mr. BRIAN. Yes, sir.
