Mr. CRAFARD. “No. 844,” the letters HEB 12, 13 and underneath, 844 is
the Nos. 12 with a dash 23.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you put that notation in the notebook?
Mr. CRAFARD. Yes; I did.
Mr. GRIFFIN. When did you put that on there?
Mr. CRAFARD. Just shortly after I got the notebook in Michigan.
Mr. GRIFFIN. What is that notation, what does that refer to?
Mr. CRAFARD. It refers to the Bible. It is referring to the Book of
Hebrews, page 844 the 12th Chapter, and 23d verse.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Why did you write that in there?
Mr. CRAFARD. There is something in the Bible that refers to the church
to which I belong.
Mr. GRIFFIN. What church is that?
Mr. CRAFARD. General Assembly Church of the First Born. That is the
only place in the Bible where the name can be found.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Mr. Hubert, do you have any questions that you want to ask
about the notebook?
Mr. HUBERT. No.
Mr. GRIFFIN. I am going to return the notebook to you at this time,
and I want to thank you for bringing those documents to us. I want
to ask you one final question. Is there anything which has come to
your attention in connection with the murder of Lee Oswald or the
assassination of President Kennedy that you haven’t told us about that
you think would be of value to the Commission?
Mr. CRAFARD. No; I can’t think of anything.
Mr. GRIFFIN. I will ask you after we conclude this deposition if
anything does come to your attention which might be of value to the
Commission if you would contact us and bring it to our attention.
Mr. CRAFARD. Yes; I will do so.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Mr. Hubert, do you have any questions that you want to ask?
Mr. HUBERT. Yes. There have been several conversations between us which
might be called interviews in the sense we were talking about the
matter at hand during lunch and so forth, is that correct?
Mr. CRAFARD. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you remember that anything we conversed about at lunch
or any interviews, has not been subsequently made a part of this
deposition?
Mr. CRAFARD. No; I don’t.
Mr. HUBERT. Have you ever talked to any other member of the Commission
staff than Mr. Griffin and myself?
Mr. CRAFARD. No.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you feel that considering your testimony and various
exhibits that you have identified that we have all you know about the
matter that the Commission is investigating?
Mr. CRAFARD. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. And that is, the death of President Kennedy, and the
subsequent violent death of Lee Harvey Oswald, and Ruby’s connection
therewith.
Mr. CRAFARD. Yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. I want to thank you for coming here and spending these 3
days with us, and I believe that concludes the deposition.
