Warren Commission (15 of 26): Hearings Vol. XV (of 15)
United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
When we did get photostatic copies of the material that had been taken
out of Ruby’s car and his apartment, we found no evidence of any garage
work that had been done or any actual mechanical work that had been
done on his car recently. So, I called my friend back and asked her
again if she could contact the man who had given her the information
and see if he would be willing to talk to us about it. She called him
back and then she called me and she said she had made an error in
saying it was in the downtown area, that the place was out on Lovers
Lane, directly across from--I have the address in here----
Mr. JENNER. Is it 5060 W. Lovers Lane?
Mr. BIGGIO. Well; she didn’t have the address itself--it was directly
across from the Jungle Hut which is in the 5000 block of Lovers Lane.
Mr. JENNER. Lovers Lane is a street name?
Mr. BIGGIO. Yes; Lovers Lane is a street. We sent an officer out there,
Detective Hellinghousen, F. A.
Mr. JENNER. Francis A. Hellinghousen [spelling]
H-e-l-l-i-n-g-h-o-u-s-e-n?
Mr. BIGGIO. That is correct; yes, sir.
Mr. JENNER. Of the Dallas City Police?
Mr. BIGGIO. Yes, sir. He went to that particular area--there are two
cafes across the street there in the 5000 block from the particular
location that the lady friend of mine said. One of them was the Cafe
Coffee Shop, was the name of it--the Cafe Coffee Shop. It was closed
up at that time. Now, this took place approximately 3 weeks after the
shooting. It was closed--ordinarily through our bureau we can find
out who the owner was of such a place, because we keep the records
of everyone through the beer licenses which we have to keep in our
particular bureau, but this particular place did not have a beer
license. It did not deal in beer.
It had been closed--we couldn’t find out who the owner was, so I
sent Officer Hellinghousen and requested him to go by and talk to
the woman who had originally given me that information and see if
she would be willing to give him the same thing--the man’s name.
Officer Hellinghousen went by and talked to her and she gave him the
man’s name and at that particular time the man was attending a real
estate convention which was here and being held here in Dallas and
the word was sent to him from the company that he works for, the Bill
Hardy Real Estate Co.--word was sent to the man, his name was Chesher
[spelling] C-h-e-s-h-e-r--Bill was his first name. I believe it is
correct--William R. He lives on Lupton Street.
Mr. JENNER. Is he still alive?
