Mr. HUBERT. So, you drove in your car alone and you went to the movies
and I think you said you went to the Majestic?
Mr. PAUL. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. What time did you get there?
Mr. PAUL. I got there about 4:30.
Mr. HUBERT. Did you park your car some place?
Mr. PAUL. I parked it on the lot. You see, Sunday, you don’t have to
have no parking.
Mr. HUBERT. And you stayed in the Majestic and watched the show?
Mr. PAUL. I stayed there about an hour—I wasn’t interested too much in
the show, I just wanted to get away from everything.
Mr. HUBERT. What time did you come out of the show?
Mr. PAUL. It must have been about, oh, 6 something—I went back and I
went to Jackson’s house.
Mr. HUBERT. You went into the show about what time—4:30, you think?
Mr. PAUL. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. And you stayed there until about 6, when you came out,
about an hour and a half?
Mr. PAUL. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Then, what did you do?
Mr. PAUL. I went back and went over to Jackson’s house.
Mr. HUBERT. That’s on what street and where?
Mr. PAUL. That’s where I’m living now—Browning Street.
Mr. HUBERT. And you went to his house—go ahead?
Mr. PAUL. Yes; and stayed there about an hour or so.
Mr. HUBERT. Who was there with you?
Mr. PAUL. The girls.
Mr. HUBERT. What girls?
Mr. PAUL. Jackson’s girls.
Mr. HUBERT. You mean his daughters?
Mr. PAUL. Yes; two girls; yes.
Mr. HUBERT. And it was just the three of you?
Mr. PAUL. Yes; they made me something to eat.
Mr. HUBERT. And you got there about what time?
Mr. PAUL. Then, I called the place and Jackson told me that the FBI was
looking for me and I kept on wondering what they wanted with me, and so
we stayed over there, and then his sister had had a little gathering
over at her house.
Mr. HUBERT. You mean Eva?
Mr. PAUL. No; Jackson’s sister, so we went over there.
Mr. HUBERT. Her name is Mrs. Gable?
Mr. PAUL. Yes; we had some ice cream and John walked in with the two
FBI men; that was 9 o’clock.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you know Mrs. Bowman?
Mr. PAUL. Mrs. Bowman?
Mr. HUBERT. Yes.
Mr. PAUL. Sure.
Mr. HUBERT. Who is she?
Mr. PAUL. She’s my ex-partner’s wife.
Mr. HUBERT. Were you living with her at that time?
Mr. PAUL. We were living together in a big house.
Mr. HUBERT. On that date?
Mr. PAUL. Yes; that’s way out in the country.
Mr. HUBERT. Did you see her that day?
Mr. PAUL. No, sir.
Mr. HUBERT. Not at all?
Mr. PAUL. I don’t think I did—I might have seen her when I left the
house.
Mr. HUBERT. And what time would that have been?
Mr. PAUL. Oh, in the morning.
Mr. HUBERT. But you didn’t see her after Oswald was shot?
Mr. PAUL. I don’t think so—I don’t remember.
Mr. HUBERT. Did you go back to the house after Oswald was shot?
Mr. PAUL. I think I went from the movies to the house and changed
clothes—that’s what I think I did, and then went over to Jackson’s
house.
Mr. HUBERT. When was it that you decided to take over the operation of
the club?
Mr. PAUL. That Monday after the shooting.
