United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. HUBERT. Now, Larry, did you recognize anyone of the voices in that
excerpt that we played?
Mr. CRAFARD. No.
Mr. HUBERT. You have never heard them at all?
Mr. CRAFARD. No.
Mr. HUBERT. And you are certain that it is not the voice of the man who
called Ruby that you referred to yesterday?
Mr. CRAFARD. How is that now?
Mr. HUBERT. Yesterday I understand that you referred to the fact that
a man had called Ruby by telephone on a sufficient number of occasions
so that you believe that you could recognize his voice if you heard it
again.
Mr. CRAFARD. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Now, I will ask you if any of the voices that you heard in
this excerpt just run off on the machine is the voice of the man you
were talking about?
Mr. CRAFARD. No.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Larry, having had a chance to listen to a number of voices
on the tape recording is there anything you can tell us about the voice
of the man who called you without leaving his name that Mr. Hubert has
been referring to. Did he have an accent?
Mr. CRAFARD. No; he didn’t have an accent.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Did he speak with any characteristic Texan or southern
speech patterns?
Mr. CRAFARD. No; his voice sounded more like a person from the East
would talk. His words were very pronounced and very definite.
Mr. GRIFFIN. There is one photograph that I neglected to show you
yesterday which I want to show you now and ask you to identify.
I am going to mark this Washington, D.C., April 10, 1964, C. L.
Crafard, Exhibit 5222.
(Photograph marked Crafard Exhibit No. 5222 for identification.)
Mr. GRIFFIN. Would you look at that photograph and tell me if that is a
photograph of anyone you have ever seen before?
Mr. CRAFARD. I believe I have saw the gentleman before at the club but
I don’t believe I was ever introduced to him.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Do you recall in what connection you saw him in the
Carousel Club?
Mr. CRAFARD. I believe he was a guest of Mr. Ruby’s.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Do you recall when you may have seen him there?
Mr. CRAFARD. No; I don’t.
Mr. GRIFFIN. I am going to hand you what I have marked as Exhibit 5223
which is a photograph of a piece of paper and it bears the name T. E.
Smith, and there is some other writing under it. Do you recognize that
name on that sheet of paper?
Mr. CRAFARD. No; I don’t.
Mr. GRIFFIN. This exhibit is marked Washington, D.C., April 10, 1964,
C. L. Crafard Exhibit 5223 and it bears on the back the numeral one.
(Photographs marked Crafard Exhibits Nos. 5223 and 5224-A for
identification.)
Mr. GRIFFIN. I am going to hand you what I have marked as Washington,
D.C., April 10, 1964, C. L. Crafard Exhibit No. 5224-A and I will ask
you if you will tell us what those are a picture of.
Mr. CRAFARD. They are pictures of a message, I would say that—there is
space for who the message is to, the date, who it is by, and when they
were there and the phone numbers.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Are there three message slips photographed in that picture?
Mr. CRAFARD. Yes.
