Mr. Wilcox.

were kept at the Irving agency office. We did, search those records at the Irving agency office.

Mr. Liebeler.

That fact is indicated in Exhibit 3001, is it not?

Mr. Wilcox.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Liebeler.

The records of telegrams or money orders received through other suburban offices such as Garland, for example, would also be kept in the Garland office, would they not?

Mr. Wilcox.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Liebeler.

But no search was made of any suburban office other than Irving; is that correct?

Mr. Wilcox.

That's right.

Mr. Liebeler.

Mr. Semingsen's memorandum also indicates that a search was made of the files in Fort Worth and in New Orleans, but you have no direct personal knowledge of what happened at those offices, do you?

Mr. Wilcox.

No, sir.

Mr. Liebeler.

We also have here a statement from Mr. Hamblen dated, December 5, 1963. Do you have the original of that statement?

Mr. Wilcox.

Yes; I do have.

Mr. Liebeler.

We will mark the original as Exhibit No. 3007 on the deposition of Laurance R. Wilcox, at Dallas, Tex., March 31, 1963.
I have initialed Exhibit No. 3007, Mr. Wilcox, and I would like you do the same.

Mr. Wilcox.

[Initials.]

Mr. Liebeler.

This statement was apparently taken on December 5, 1963. Do you recall the circumstances under which it was given?

Mr. Wilcox.

This was following a meeting and discussion that we held on December 4, at which time we discussed the money orders and messages with Mr. Hamblen, Mrs. McClure, and Mr. Lewis.

Mr. Liebeler.

Who was present at this discussion other than the individuals you just mentioned and yourself?
(Mr. Wilcox phoned his office re: correct date of meeting.)

Mr. Wilcox.

I did hold this meeting.

Mr. Liebeler.

Let the record indicate that Mr. Wilcox has just conferred telephonically with Mr. Semingsen and wishes now to clarify the statements concerning the time on which certain meetings were held with the employees.

Mr. Wilcox.

I did hold the meetings with these people on December 4, and did obtain these statements, including the statement from Mrs. McClure, Mr. Lewis, both indicated as December 4, and the statement from Mr. Hamblen which is dated December 5.
Following this meeting I endeavored to find the message or messages that Mr. Hamblen was referring to, which he insisted Mrs. McClure had accepted from Mr. Oswald. I did extract from our files all messages matching the message numbers on the cash sheet prepared by Mrs. McClure.

Mr. Liebeler.

Did the FBI ask you to do this because Mr. Hamblen said that a message with which Mrs. McClure had difficulty was given to her by a man who Hamblen thought was Oswald, and that the message was one to Washington, D.C., specifically to the Secretary of the Navy----

Mr. Wilcox.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Liebeler.

And that it was accounted for on Mrs. McClure's sheet as a night letter that was set forth on her cash sheet; is that correct?

Mr. Wilcox.

That's right.

Mr. Liebeler.

So you then got all of the telegrams that were listed on Mrs. McClure's cash sheets; is that correct?

Mr. Wilcox.

From the 1st of November through the November 22. We could not find any such messages. However, we did extract all messages going to Washington, D.C., regardless of the names to whom they-were sent, or signed, including some messages going to other points, because. of their peculiar type of printing.
Now, would you like to see those messages?

Mr. Liebeler.

Yes, sir; I would. Let me ask you specifically if the period covered in terms of this extraction was from October?

Mr. Wilcox.

From November 1.

Mr. Liebeler.

From November 1?
