United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. SENATOR. No.
Mr. HUBERT. Therefore he must have told you.
Mr. SENATOR. He said she called, and, of course, I knew it was Lynn
because I knew——
Mr. HUBERT. You knew who she was?
Mr. SENATOR. Sure.
Mr. HUBERT. But after he hung up, he told you that she needed $25 for
rent?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Did he mention that she had called the night before?
Mr. SENATOR. No.
Mr. HUBERT. You did not know that at the time?
Mr. SENATOR. If she did I don’t know. This I don’t know.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you know what time that call was?
Mr. SENATOR. I don’t know. It could have been anywheres between 9:30, I
am not sure, maybe 10. I am not sure what time it was. See now——
Mr. HUBERT. Let’s get at it this way.
Mr. SENATOR. Now you are placing me from the time I woke up to the time
Jack woke up, but I say with all these things I still have to guess the
times.
Mr. HUBERT. That is why I am going to put it to you this way. The time
of the call is known, and that is why I would like you to relate events
backwards from that time, you see.
Mr. SENATOR. I know that I was off on the time because——
Mr. HUBERT. No; I am not trying to get you off. I am trying to get the
facts, so let’s approach it this way. How long before the Little Lynn
call would you estimate it was that Jack woke up?
Mr. SENATOR. I couldn’t estimate the time, but I don’t think he was up
too long.
Mr. HUBERT. You say he had gone to the bathroom and that he had cooked
his breakfast and that he had gotten dressed?
Mr. SENATOR. No; he wasn’t dressed at the time Little Lynn called.
Mr. HUBERT. He was not dressed at the time?
Mr. SENATOR. No; he was still in his shorts. I think he was still in
his shorts.
Mr. HUBERT. If you could help us on this it would be valuable for us
to know about how long prior to the Little Lynn call did Jack actually
get up. If you want to break that into segments as to how long it was
before he started breakfast, and so forth, well, do that too. It may be
helpful to you and it would be to us. I can help you if you want along
these lines. Did the Little Lynn call come after he had finished his
breakfast?
Mr. SENATOR. No; I think that call came in before he had breakfast. I
think it did. I think it was before breakfast. I am not sure.
Mr. HUBERT. He answered the phone as I understand it?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. When he got up he went to the bathroom?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Did the call come while he was in the bathroom?
Mr. SENATOR. I don’t think so.
Mr. HUBERT. After he left the bathroom he went to fix breakfast as I
understand it.
Mr. SENATOR. I don’t know if the call came in before or after he went
to the bathroom. It was one of the two. I don’t know which. As I say, I
would have to twist it.
Mr. HUBERT. I don’t want you to twist it or to guess.
Mr. SENATOR. I have to guess. I have got to guess.
Mr. HUBERT. You have got to give your best estimation.
