Warren Commission (10 of 26): Hearings Vol. X (of 15)
United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. RANKIN. And No. 11 is a typewritten copy of the original,
purportedly an answer to Lee Harvey Oswald that we have already
referred to, and you have said you thought it would be the type of
letter at least that you would write in answer?
Mr. DOBBS. That is correct.
Mr. RANKIN. And we have said that we would get the original and submit
it to you for your examination. If you find that the original is the
original of Dobbs' No. 11 when it is submitted to you, will you then
initial it and return it to us so we can make it a part of the record
here?
Mr. DOBBS. I will do so.
Mr. RANKIN. Thank you.
(Document marked Dobbs' Exhibit No. 12.)
Mr. RANKIN. I hand you Dobbs' No. 12 and ask you if you know anything
about the person Bob Chester that purportedly signed the original of
that letter.
Mr. DOBBS. Yes.
Mr. RANKIN. Who is that Bob Chester?
Mr. DOBBS. It is an associate of mine, works in collaboration with me,
a day volunteer here in the party office.
Mr. RANKIN. Do you know anything about the blowups, reversal and
reproduction work that he refers to there?
Mr. DOBBS. I can only assume that he would have written about----
Mr. WATTS. Excuse me. You should answer what you know, Farrell; and if
you want to express an opinion, it is all right, but make it very clear
whether or not you have any knowledge.
Mr. DOBBS. Would you ask me the question again; perhaps I did not
understand.
Mr. RANKIN. I am interested in your knowledge about that material that
is referred to in the letter, the blowups and reproductions and the
other things that are referred to in the first paragraph.
Mr. DOBBS. So far as I can perceive, it refers to a technical process.
I wouldn't know anything beyond that.
Mr. RANKIN. And you don't know whether there was anything of that kind;
at least you did not find it when you made the search?
Mr. DOBBS. I have no indication of such information in our search.
Mr. RANKIN. Mr. Chester is still with your organization?
Mr. DOBBS. He is.
Mr. RANKIN. And you don't recall this Exhibit No. 12 or the original or
copies or anything of that kind?
Mr. DOBBS. No; I do not.
Mr. RANKIN. You did not find it when you made your search?
Mr. DOBBS. That's right.
Mr. RANKIN. Would you kindly make a search to see if there is such a
letter and such materials in your files?
Mr. DOBBS. Yes; we will look for that.
Mr. WATTS. Mr. Rankin, you are requesting Mr. Dobbs to make a further
search to see if he can find the letter and reproductions referred to;
is that correct?
Mr. RANKIN. Yes, both; and if he does find them, to forward them to us
so they can be incorporated after they are initialed as a part of the
record in this deposition.
(Document marked Dobbs' Exhibit No. 13.)
Mr. RANKIN. Mr. Dobbs, do you recall seeing Dobbs' No. 13?
Mr. DOBBS. No; I do not.
Mr. RANKIN. Do you recognize the signature?
Mr. DOBBS. Yes; that would have been one of my associates that helps me
in volunteer office work.
