(Testimony of Warren Reynolds Allen)
Mr. Reynolds.
Yes; I have.
Mr. Liebeler.
What did you say to him and what did he say to you about this matter, if you remember.
Mr. Reynolds.
Oh, I said to him basically the same thing that I have said to you, and he said it could be and he thinks that it's strange that I was shot. I think anybody would think it strange. But of course, if you have ever talked to him, he wouldn't say yes or no.
Mr. Liebeler.
Does General Walker know of any facts, so far as you know, that would relate your shooting to the assassination?
Mr. Reynolds.
Mr. Liebeler.
He has never expressed a firm opinion to you one way or the other as to whether there was in fact, any connection between the two, has he?
Mr. Reynolds.
Let me just let him answer that when he talks to you.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did you know that he is going to talk to us?
Mr. Reynolds.
Yes; I do.
Mr. Liebeler.
How do you know that?
Mr. Reynolds.
I talked to him.
Mr. Liebeler.
Talked to him since we have invited him to come over and talk to us?
Mr. Reynolds.
Yes.
Mr. Liebeler.
When is the last time you talked to General Walker?
Mr. Reynolds.
Around noon today.
Mr. Liebeler.
Talked to him on the telephone? Or in person?
Mr. Reynolds.
Telephone; yes.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did you discuss with him your appearance before the Commission here?
Mr. Reynolds.
Yes.
Mr. Liebeler.
Would you tell us the general subject of your conversation?
Mr. Reynolds.
I just don't want to answer that, really.
Mr. Liebeler.
Preceding your conversation at noon today, when was the last time you talked to him before that, do you remember, approximately?
Mr. Reynolds.
About a week ago. Maybe 2 weeks.
Mr. Liebeler.
How many times have you talked to him about this question altogether?
Mr. Reynolds.
I have no idea; five or six.
Mr. Liebeler.
Now, in fact, General Walker sent a telegram to the Commission suggesting that we take your testimony, did he not?
Mr. Reynolds.
Yes.
Mr. Liebeler.
You knew that he did? Did he tell you that?
Mr. Reynolds.
Yes. May I go off the record?
Mr. Liebeler.
Sure.
I think I have asked you all the questions I can think of, Mr. Reynolds, at this point. But I do want to say this to you. If you can think of anything else that you want the Commission to know in connection with this whole thing, I want you to feel free to say what it is right now. Or if you think there are any other facts that relate to this that we haven't brought out.
Mr. Reynolds.
I don't know of any. I think it should be investigated what happened to me.
Mr. Liebeler.
The Dallas Police Department did conduct an investigation of the attack on you.
Mr. Reynolds.
But their investigation didn't go too much past Garner. I mean they questioned a lot of people, but not anything of any importance. They have a little old bullet. I believe that is the only clue that they have.
Mr. Liebeler.
If you can't think of anything else that you think we ought to know and I haven't already asked you about, we can terminate the deposition at this point.
Mr. Reynolds.
I would like to say something that might be important. About 3 weeks after I got out of the hospital, which would be around the 20th of February, my little 10-year-old daughter--somebody tried to pick her up, tried to get her in a car.
Now, again, whether that has any connection or not, I don't know, but it did
