United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. TAYLOR. Yes; when Mr. Yelchek and I went. I was able to positively
identify the location. I might add, after having talked to him since
then, that the owner says that--or there is no record of the rental at
this location. There seems to be a set of duplicate books involved--one
for themselves and one for the National Trailer Co., whichever one it
was. A little fraud, or something, involved in that. We didn't get too
involved in it--just to know that there wasn't any record.
Mr. JENNER. Is the name J. H. Pendley familiar to you?
Mr. TAYLOR. No.
Mr. JENNER. Do you have your driver's license with you?
Mr. TAYLOR. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Would you look at it and tell me what the number of it is?
Mr. TAYLOR. 1606670. And that's my memory that's talking.
(Witness then takes the driver's license from billfold and hands to Mr.
Jenner.)
Mr. JENNER. 1606670.
(Hands license back to witness.)
Did the people from whom you rented the trailer take your driver's
license number on that occasion?
Mr. TAYLOR. I don't remember. It's common--in fact, it's normal
procedure to take the license number--driver's license and vehicle
license.
Mr. JENNER. How long have you had that number?
Mr. TAYLOR. It's permanent in the State of Texas.
Mr. JENNER. So you had it on this occasion--the same number?
Mr. TAYLOR. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. What's the practice in Texas in respect to license numbers?
Do you get a new one every year, or do you get a sticker--or what?
Mr. TAYLOR. Vehicle?
Mr. JENNER. Yes.
Mr. TAYLOR. They change from year to year.
Mr. JENNER. They change the number?
Mr. TAYLOR. Yes; they do.
Mr. JENNER. Do you, by any chance, remember your license number in 1962?
Mr. TAYLOR. No.
Mr. JENNER. Do you ever recall having a license number with the digit
letters "E" and "Y"?
Mr. TAYLOR. I would never have a license tag with that number.
Mr. JENNER. With those prefix letters?
Mr. TAYLOR. Yes; as long as I lived in Dallas.
Mr. JENNER. Why is that, sir?
Mr. TAYLOR. The "E" prefix--the prefixes beginning with "E" are for
Tarrant County, of which Fort Worth is a part.
Mr. JENNER. And you being in Dallas County, your initials are
what--your prefixes?
Mr. TAYLOR. In Dallas County they would be some of the "M" prefix, all
of the "N" and "P".
Mr. JENNER. "N" as in "Nancy," "P" as in "Paul"?
Mr. TAYLOR. Yes; and some of the "M" as in "Mary."
Mr. JENNER. But it would be a combination of two or more of those three
letters?
Mr. TAYLOR. It would be a combination of two letters beginning with the
three that we have just been discussing.
Mr. JENNER. From one of the three we have just discussed?
Mr. TAYLOR. Beginning with either an M, an N, or a P. All of the N's
and P's--like NA or NS or PA or PZ.
Mr. JENNER. All right.
You piled all this material in the covered trailer?
Mr. TAYLOR. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. This was on a Sunday, as I recall your saying?
Mr. TAYLOR. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. When did you return that trailer?
Mr. TAYLOR. The same day.
