United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. SENATOR. No.
Mr. HUBERT. Not on a daily basis?
Mr. SENATOR. No.
Mr. HUBERT. Just at night, not every night?
Mr. SENATOR. Normally I would come in on Friday and Saturday.
Mr. HUBERT. But you were still at your job?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes; after all I was staying there and felt he was
entitled to something, you know, so I’d come in there and help him.
Mr. HUBERT. Did you assist in the cooking or anything of that sort?
Mr. SENATOR. There was no food. The only food there was, they make
pizzas once in a while.
Mr. HUBERT. I don’t mean at the Carousel, I mean at the house, the
apartment.
Mr. SENATOR. Oh, yes; but I couldn’t cook right for him. He is a funny
guy in cooking.
Mr. HUBERT. Did you do any cooking there at all?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes. If I don’t broil right for him, if I make him eggs,
it has got to be so much of this in the butter because he was watching
his diet, and I got so tired of it I says, “Make your own eggs.” You
just couldn’t make anything right for him. And all meats had to be
broiled. He don’t believe in fried stuff. And he was just hard to cook
for.
Mr. HUBERT. The routine then I suppose is that you were working and
you would come back to the apartment after normal working hours, which
would be around when, 5 or 6 in the evening?
Mr. SENATOR. To cook for him? That would be rare. I got away from that.
Mr. HUBERT. I am getting to the normal routine as to your relationship.
You had a regular working day I take it?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Which started off at 8 or so in the morning?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. And ended up at 5 or 6 in the evening? He, on the other
hand, would be sleeping in the morning?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. And I understand would leave the apartment after you got
back at night or before, as a normal thing?
Mr. SENATOR. It wasn’t always necessarily that I came home between 5
and 6 because many times I stayed out.
Mr. HUBERT. Was there any kind of a pattern at all to your living in
point of time?
Mr. SENATOR. Oh, no; there is no particular pattern.
Mr. HUBERT. What about weekends? Was that different?
Mr. SENATOR. No; not particularly. First of all I always get up before
he does, whether I am working or otherwise.
Mr. HUBERT. You would help him at the club?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. On weekends and if you did I suppose you came back about
the same time he did?
Mr. SENATOR. At night? Yes. But as far as I getting up in the morning,
I always got up much earlier than he did. It was just natural. It was
natural for me to get up, and it doesn’t make any difference what
particular time I went to bed at 2, 3, 4 or 5, I am of that nature that
I get up.
Mr. GRIFFIN. What is your regular rising time?
Mr. SENATOR. I would say 7, 7:30, sometimes 6 in the morning. A lot of
times it would probably depend what time I go to bed. If I go to bed at
10 o’clock at night I probably wake up at 5 or 5:30 in the morning.
Mr. HUBERT. What about on weekends?
