Mr. GRIFFIN. Did he tell you who he was going to visit in Havana? Mrs. NICHOLS. The only person he told me he was going to see in Havana was a man by the name of McWillie. I don’t know if Mr. Mac was his first name or whether McWillie was his last name. Mr. GRIFFIN. Had you ever met McWillie? Mrs. NICHOLS. I had. Mr. GRIFFIN. When had you met him? Mrs. NICHOLS. I had seen him a few times. Jack had introduced me to him. I had seen him in the Vegas Club a few times. Mr. GRIFFIN. Did Jack indicate to you what McWillie was doing in Havana? Mrs. NICHOLS. He was managing the Tropicana Night Club, so I understood. Mr. GRIFFIN. Now is this something that you actually remember yourself, or something you know from having read about these things in the newspaper? Mrs. NICHOLS. No; I remember him telling me that he was at the Tropicana. Mr. GRIFFIN. Did Jack indicate whether he had any business interests with McWillie? Mrs. NICHOLS. He didn’t indicate that he had any business interests. Mr. GRIFFIN. Did Jack ever talk to you at any other time about Cuba or any interests he might have in Cuba? Mrs. NICHOLS. No. Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you feel that Jack talked to you about all of his enterprises; business activities? Mrs. NICHOLS. Well, I knew of nothing that he didn’t discuss with me. I don’t know of any activities that he didn’t discuss. Mr. GRIFFIN. Well, did you feel Jack was the kind of person who might do things that he wouldn’t discuss with people? Mrs. NICHOLS. Discuss with people? Mr. GRIFFIN. Yes; with other people who weren’t involved in that particular activity? Mrs. NICHOLS. I don’t know. He always talked freely to me, I thought. I never did feel that he—Jack was a big talker. He talks a lot; quite an extrovert. Mr. GRIFFIN. How did you happen to break up with Jack? Mrs. NICHOLS. It was a gradual thing. We had no quarrel. We just quit. He quit calling me. We just quit going together. Mr. GRIFFIN. Now you indicated that Jack returned to Chicago from time to time? Mrs. NICHOLS. Yes. Mr. GRIFFIN. When was that? Mrs. NICHOLS. That was about August 1952. Mr. GRIFFIN. How do you place it in August? Mrs. NICHOLS. As I recall, he lost Bob Wills Ranch House about April or May 1952, and he stayed here several months, and it was around August, I believe, when he returned to Chicago. And he stayed about 6 weeks. Mr. GRIFFIN. When you say he lost it, did he go into bankruptcy? Go through some court proceedings or just sell it to somebody at a loss? Mrs. NICHOLS. I don’t know whether he took bankruptcy or not. I don’t remember. I don’t think he got anything. I don’t believe he sold it. Mr. GRIFFIN. Was he forced out of it by anybody? Mrs. NICHOLS. I was under the impression that he just didn’t have the money to continue operating. He just had to leave it. Mr. GRIFFIN. What kind of place was this Ranch House? Mrs. NICHOLS. It was a western type. Mr. GRIFFIN. Restaurant? Mrs. NICHOLS. No; nightclub. Mr. GRIFFIN. Striptease shows?
