Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. HUBERT. She never did go to Dallas?
Mr. SENATOR. No; she wouldn’t go, and I had a job to hold down.
Mr. HUBERT. She kept the child?
Mr. SENATOR. She kept the child.
Mr. HUBERT. And still has it?
Mr. SENATOR. And still has it, and, of course, there could have been
a possibility if I didn’t go—I only say possibility—that I could have
been released from my job. This, I only say, there could have been a
possibility.
Mr. HUBERT. Now tell us what you did then in Dallas. You continued to
work, I take it, for Smoler’s?
Mr. SENATOR. Oh, yes; sure.
Mr. HUBERT. Where did you live? Can you give us a list of the various
places where you lived?
Mr. SENATOR. The first year I was just living, you know, in motels,
from one place, you know, wherever I was, because I was traveling the
State of Texas.
Mr. HUBERT. What was your territory there?
Mr. SENATOR. Texas.
Mr. HUBERT. The whole of Texas?
Mr. SENATOR. I started off the whole thing and then I wound down until
I probably wound up with just a corner of it. And when I wound up with
that there I said this is not for me, because I can’t make it on only
part of Texas.
Mr. HUBERT. Of course, that comes a little later.
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Where did you live in Dallas? Give us a list of your
various addresses just roughly.
Mr. SENATOR. The first place that I actually centrally located in, I
don’t remember the name of the place but I do remember the name of the
street.
Mr. HUBERT. All right.
Mr. SENATOR. I could go to the place and know where it is but I can’t
think of the name of the place, which was on McKinney Avenue.
Mr. HUBERT. How long did you stay there?
Mr. SENATOR. I don’t know. I would probably say, I’d have to guess, I
would probably say maybe 6 months to a year. I’m not sure now.
Mr. HUBERT. Was it an apartment?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes; it was an apartment.
Mr. HUBERT. Were you alone?
Mr. SENATOR. No; I was with a couple other boys.
Mr. HUBERT. Who were they?
Mr. SENATOR. One fellow by the name of George Guest. George Guest, he
was a, what do you call them, xylophones. He was a musician.
Mr. HUBERT. He played the instrument called the xylophone?
Mr. SENATOR. What is the one with the woods? It is not xylophone. What
is the one that is made out of wood?
Mr. HUBERT. Marimba?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes, it is the marimba. Is the marimba made out of wood?
Mr. HUBERT. As a musical instrument?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. A percussion instrument?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Where did he work?
Mr. SENATOR. He played wherever he got engagements. He got booked
locally, out of town.
Mr. HUBERT. Who was the other one?
Mr. SENATOR. The other one who stayed with us a short while, his name
was Mort Seder.
Mr. HUBERT. What did he do?
Mr. SENATOR. He sells men’s apparel, traveling salesman.
Mr. HUBERT. Have you maintained contact with either of those?
