Mr. Husert.

on Document 5121, she would have signed that at approximately 3:25 p.m., on November 24, 1963, is that correct?

Mr. Strong.

That's correct, yes.

Mr. Hubert.

There is nothing on Exhibit 5120, that indicates the time of sending, is that right?

Mr. Strong.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

Are you able to state, however, that the time stamped on 5121, indicates that the transaction was completed at 3:25 p.m., on November 24, 1963?

Mr. Strong.

Yes, immediately after Karen Bennett signed this receipt I stamped.

Mr. Hubert.

"This receipt," to wit: Exhibit 5121?

Mr. Strong.

Then I stamped the Exhibit 5121, to show the time that payment had been made.

Mr. Hubert.

And that's all you know about the matter?

Mr. Strong.

Yes, sir; that's right.

Mr. Hubert.

Do you remember if Karen Bennett was alone or was there someone with her?

Mr. Strong.

She was alone. There was no one with her that came into the office.

Mr. Hubert.

Had she been waiting around?

Mr. Strong.

No, sir; no. She walked in and I immediately waited upon her. Asked her if I might help her, and she told me she was expecting a money order, and, of course, I went through the money order file and paid her upon her identification.

Mr. Hubert.

Had you prepared the money order receipt, which is identified as Exhibit 5120, prior to the time she came in?

Mr. Strong.

Yes, we do that as quickly as they come in, as we find the time to do so.

Mr. Hubert.

Now, we have been speaking about Exhibit 5120, in a sense that might indicate we were dealing with the original document. I asked you if it • is not true that• the actual piece of paper that we have identified as 5120, is a photostatic copy of it?

Mr. Strong.

Yes, it is. The original would be green in color.

Mr. Hubert.

I see. There are some initials on 5120 following the words, "Issuing employee." Whose initials are those?

Mr. Strong.

Those are my initials indicating that I paid the money order.

Mr. Hubert.

Mr. Strong, have you had any interviews with any members of the President's Commission other than myself in regard to this matter?

Mr. Strong.

No, I have not.

Mr. Hubert.

Now, there was an interview between you and me prior to the commencement of this deposition earlier this morning?

Mr. Strong.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

In this deposition, have we covered everything that was covered in the course of our interview?

Mr. Strong.

I think so. I don't believe there is anything I can add there.

Mr. Hubert.

Do you know of any inconsistencies in our interview that have not been developed in the course of this deposition?

Mr. Strong.

No, sir; I do not.

Mr. Hubert.

This Karen Bennett came in in a normal manner and left in a normal manner and exhibited no emotion whatsoever?

Mr. Strong.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

Did you know of the shooting of Oswald when she came in?

Mr. Strong.

No, sir; I did not. I have been on duty since 7 o'clock that morning with no means of communication whatsoever. In fact, I did not know it until after payment of this money order had been made. One of the messengers mentioned the fact that Oswald had been killed, and that a party by the name of Rubenstein had shot him, which couldn't register with me at all, because I did not connect the names.

Mr. Hubert.

Did Karen Bennett indicate in any way that she knew that Ruby had shot Oswald?

Mr. Strong.

No, sir; there was no conversation between us at all other than the conversation in respect to the money order.
