Warren Commission (06 of 26): Hearings Vol. VI (of 15)
United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. SPECTER. What did you tell the Secret Service men?
Mrs. HILL. As well as I remember, we talked to so many that day.
Mr. SPECTER. Well, did you tell everybody about the same thing you have
told me here today?
Mrs. HILL. Yes, except that I didn't go into that stuff with the shots
because no one ever asked me, no one ever detailed it like that, but
they were interested that day in those pictures and they got them all
from us.
Mr. SPECTER. Did you talk with the Secret Service men on any occasion
after the events on November 22?
Mrs. HILL. No.
Mr. SPECTER. Have you ever talked to anybody else from the Federal
Government?
Mrs. HILL. The FBI men.
Mr. SPECTER. On how many occasions?
Mrs. HILL. Several.
Mr. SPECTER. How many, if you remember?
Mrs. HILL. I don't recall--I was called two or three times at least
after that.
Mr. SPECTER. Called on the telephone?
Mrs. HILL. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. You discussed the matter over the phone with somebody who
said he was from the FBI?
Mrs. HILL. No; I had that pulled on me and I didn't want to talk until
I called back down to check to see.
Mr. SPECTER. Did you talk to somebody from the FBI when you called them
back?
Mrs. HILL. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. Over the phone?
Mrs. HILL. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. On how many occasions?
Mrs. HILL. I think two or three times is all I had.
Mr. SPECTER. Were you ever interviewed in person by the FBI?
Mrs. HILL. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. On how many occasions?
Mrs. HILL. After that day, I believe only once.
Mr. SPECTER. And about when was that?
Mrs. HILL. Well, it was the other day after I received this letter--no;
before I received this letter, and this was last Tuesday, I think, and
they came in reference to what Mark Lane had told the Warren Commission.
Mr. SPECTER. And what did they ask you when they came to see you last
Tuesday, that would be a week ago today or the 16th--or the 17th?
Mrs. HILL. They just had me start over with this story again and they
had Mr. Lane's copy and they asked me, you know, if I had said these
things and, I read it and told them that I had said it.
Mr. SPECTER. Was Mr. Lane's version accurate?
Mrs. HILL. It was accurate in that he took down what I said. It was
inaccurate in that he had taken it out of context, and the questions
he asked me weren't there, nor were they given. I can see how he could
have made what he made out of my statements.
Mr. SPECTER. When did you talk to Mr. Lane?
Mrs. HILL. I talked to him about--approximately 4 or 6 weeks ago.
Mr. SPECTER. Where did that take place?
Mrs. HILL. At New York.
Mr. SPECTER. Did he call you on the telephone?
Mrs. HILL. That's right, and he didn't tell me he was recording this at
the time.
Mr. SPECTER. Did you ever talk to Mark Lane in person?
Mrs. HILL. No.
Mr. SPECTER. Did you ever sign an affidavit for him?
Mrs. HILL. No.
Mr. SPECTER. The only contact you had with him was this one telephone
conversation?
