Warren Commission (11 of 26): Hearings Vol. XI (of 15)
United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. PIC. I don't know, sir. I don't know, sir. I wouldn't venture a
guess whose handwriting it is.
Mr. JENNER. There is a square to the left of the handwriting in
Russian, what does that signify?
Mr. PIC. This was placed there by the Secret Service, in San Antonio,
sir, to identify the handwritings in this book, the square being the
handwriting of Marina Oswald, the parentheses being the handwriting of
myself and the mark with the circle being the handwriting of Lee Harvey
Oswald.
Mr. JENNER. So that wherever throughout that book a zero appears that
is the handwriting of Lee Harvey Oswald?
Mr. PIC. Yes, sir.
Mr. JENNER. Wherever the parentheses mark appears that is your
handwriting?
Mr. PIC. That is correct, sir.
Mr. JENNER. And wherever the square appears that is Marina's
handwriting?
Mr. PIC. That is correct, sir.
Mr. JENNER. Turn the page over. On the reverse side of that page that
is all your handwriting?
Mr. PIC. Except this up here, sir.
Mr. JENNER. The reverse side of the previous page.
Mr. PIC. Yes, sir; that is my handwriting.
Mr. JENNER. All right. Now, the front side of the next page which has
the letter "A" printed on it, in the upper right-hand corner. Is that
in your handwriting?
Mr. PIC. Everything except this top portion, sir.
Mr. JENNER. The top portion?
Mr. PIC. Starting with liquid measure would be my handwriting.
Mr. JENNER. And then there is something above that?
Mr. PIC. Yes, sir.
Mr. JENNER. Whose handwriting is that?
Mr. PIC. I believe that to be Marina Oswald's, sir.
Mr. JENNER. Everything below that is yours?
Mr. PIC. Yes, sir.
Mr. JENNER. All right. The reverse side of that page, that is the
reverse side of the "A" page is in whose handwriting?
Mr. PIC. My handwriting, sir.
Mr. JENNER. Then the page opposite that?
Mr. PIC. That is in my handwriting, sir.
Mr. JENNER. The reverse side of that page is blank. Then the face
of the next page is some figures and the words "Highway start, Fort
Worth," and "highway" again, those are all in whose handwriting?
Mr. PIC. My handwriting, sir.
Mr. JENNER. Then the series of pages are blank, and the first writing
we see thereafter is on the "C" page, some letters and a figure. Whose
handwriting is that?
Mr. PIC. That is mine, sir.
Mr. JENNER. The next handwriting appears on the last ruled page. Whose
handwriting is that?
Mr. PIC. That is the handwriting of my wife, sir.
Mr. JENNER. All of it?
Mr. PIC. Yes, sir; she loves to write her name.
Mr. JENNER. All right. Then on the next to the last page in the book
which is a plain white page, appears P.O. Box 2195, Dallas, Tex.
Mr. PIC. That is the handwriting of Lee Harvey Oswald, sir.
Mr. JENNER. And on the opposite page, which is the inside of the back
cover----
Mr. PIC. This is the identifying mark in the hand of Secret Service
Agent Ben A. Vidles, in San Antonio, Tex.
Mr. JENNER. This book is in the same condition now as it was?
Mr. PIC. When I gave it to the Secret Service.
