Warren Commission (14 of 26): Hearings Vol. XIV (of 15)
United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. SENATOR. I am observing all this. You know I can tell. But I didn’t
know what to think. I didn’t know how to think.
Mr. HUBERT. I think you have already said that you didn’t have any
fears of anything.
Mr. SENATOR. No; I wasn’t afraid of him.
Mr. HUBERT. No; but I mean were you concerned that something might
happen to him, that he might do something?
Mr. SENATOR. No; not particularly; no.
Mr. HUBERT. Did you think that——
Mr. SENATOR. The thing is I never asked him the thoughts within him or
what he was thinking about.
Mr. HUBERT. Did it occur to you that maybe somebody ought to talk to
him about it, that his grief was going to the point, or his condition
of being upset was going to the point that somebody ought to talk to
him about it?
Mr. SENATOR. I know he visited his sister, and, of course, both were in
grief together, and I don’t know if he contacted his rabbi or not.
Mr. HUBERT. I think you mentioned a little while ago that he told you
he had been to the——
Mr. SENATOR. To the synagogue.
Mr. HUBERT. To the synagogue?
Mr. SENATOR. If he talked to the rabbi, I don’t know. Now, I know that
he went to the synagogue that Friday night to pray for the President.
Now, if he had personal contact with the rabbi I don’t know.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you know whether he went to the synagogue on Saturday?
Mr. SENATOR. I don’t know. I really don’t know.
Mr. HUBERT. You left him at the house when you left?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. And you left at approximately 12:30?
Mr. SENATOR. I would say something around that nature.
Mr. HUBERT. He would certainly not have gone to the rabbi then, to the
synagogue, on Saturday morning.
Mr. SENATOR. I don’t know. I mean I couldn’t answer that. I wouldn’t
know.
Mr. HUBERT. Maybe you can, or at least you can give us some facts. He
was asleep when you awoke at 10:30, isn’t that right?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes; but he was up. He Was up when I left.
Mr. HUBERT. And you left at 12:30?
Mr. SENATOR. I am only assuming within an hour.
Mr. HUBERT. So it could have been 11:30?
Mr. SENATOR. 11:30, 12, 12:30. I can’t say because actually, you know,
when this period is going on, I am not watching clocks. I don’t own
one. I can’t go by a timetable because I didn’t have the time.
Mr. HUBERT. Certainly, he didn’t leave the house from the time he got
up until you left.
Mr. SENATOR. No; I left first.
Mr. HUBERT. That is correct.
Mr. SENATOR. Now, what time he left I don’t know.
Mr. HUBERT. But he didn’t leave the house from the time you got up
until the time you left?
Mr. SENATOR. That is right.
Mr. HUBERT. Now, perhaps we can fix the time when you left a little
better by going on and seeing where you went. I ask you where you went?
