(Testimony of G. E. Worley)
Mr. Griffin.
you come forward with it, regardless of what your personal feelings may be and so forth ?
Mr. Worley.
Yes; I would.
Mr. Griffin.
I will appreciate that.
Mr. Worley.
I sure would.
Mr. Griffin.
Okay.
Mr. Worley.
Glad I met you.
Mr. Griffin.
Nice to have met you. [Add this to Worley]:
After Mr. Worley left, I realized that I neglected to get him to sign the chart that we had been using to explain the various positions in the basement, and the court reporter says that was because I was hurried. And I notice in looking at this I also neglected even when I corrected this afterward to write after Mr. Worley the date, so I will write that in now. 3-2664. And I wrote that in a space between the word Mr. Worley and an exhibit number which I had already put on there, Exhibit 5050.
Lt. Woodrow Wiggins

I state to you now that the general nature of the Commission's inquiry is to ascertain, evaluate, and report upon the facts relating to the assassination of President Kennedy and the subsequent violent death of Lee Harvey Oswald. Now, in particular to you, Lieutenant Wiggins, the nature of the inquiry tonight, is to determine what facts you know about the death of Oswald and the other pertinent facts you may know about the general inquiry. You have appeared here today by virtue of a general request made to Chief Curry by the general counsel of the staff of the President's Commission, to wit, Mr. J.

The rules of the Commission provide that you be entitled, if you wish, to a 3-day written notice prior to the taking of this deposition, but the rules also provide that if a witness cares to do so, he may waive the 3-day written notice and, so, I now ask you if you are willing to waive this 3-day written notice which otherwise you would be entitled to?
Lieutenant WIGGINS. Yes; I am willing to waive it.
Mr. Hubert.
So, will you stand and raise your right hand and be sworn.
Do you solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God?
