(Testimony of Andrew , Jr. Armstrong)
Mr. Armstrong.
he did--I'll take it back--Jack did bring him some eggs and things for him to fix his breakfast if he wanted to.
Mr. Hubert.
Was there a stove to do that?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you notice whether he did cook there much?
Mr. Armstrong.
About twice I noticed that he did.
Mr. Hubert.
Other than that he didn't cook?
Mr. Armstrong.
Not that I know of.
Mr. Hubert.
Now from the time you got there say, around midday until you left at 1 o'clock in the morning, the next morning, would you say that Larry was there most of the time?
Mr. Armstrong.
He was there most of the time.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you get to be friendly with him?
Mr. Armstrong.
Friendly--well, not exactly. Friendly, but----
Mr. Hubert.
You got along all right?
Mr. Armstrong.
We got along all right.
Mr. Hubert.
There was no friction between you?
Mr. Armstrong.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
As I understand it, most of the time when you got there he had already been awake and at least begun to clean up, although most of the time he had not finished and you and he finished together?
Mr. Armstrong.
Right.
Mr. Hubert.
So, in.a sense, he was helping you out?
Mr. Armstrong.
Right.
Mr. Hubert.
So you got to the club about 11:20 and you heard the sirens blowing and you turned on your transistor radio and you heard about the President being shot, and I think you said you went and woke Larry up?
Mr. Armstrong.
Well, I didn't finish that. I woke Larry up and I--he sat up and I went back out of the room and I went back to what I was doing because it was necessary--absolutely necessary.
Mr. Hubert.
You mean you were on the toilet, is that right?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes; and then I heard further reports and I got up again and I went and told Larry the President had been shot.
Mr. Hubert.
The first time you went there you didn't tell him about the President being shot?
Mr. Armstrong.
No; I told him somebody shot at the President, and Larry--I noticed the couple of times that I had woke him up he always went back to sleep and he did the same thing this time, but when I told him that the President had been shot, he jumped straight up--he got up immediately and put his clothes on.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, what interval of time elapsed between the first time you woke him up and then went back to the toilet and the second time when you came back and told him the President had been shot?
Mr. Armstrong.
I don't know, it couldn't have been longer than a couple of minutes--I don't think.
Mr. Hubert.
All right. What did you all do then?
Mr. Armstrong.
We just walked around and listened to the radio, shaking our heads and waiting on more reports.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you have a television in the place?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes; we had a television--I turned the television on.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you all listen to both the television and the radio?
Mr. Armstrong.
Both the television and the radio--there wasn't too much on the TV, so you could get more on the radio.
Mr. Hubert.
When did you hear from Jack, after the shooting of the President?
Mr. Armstong.
Oh, I would say about 15 or 20 minutes.
Mr. Hubert.
After you first heard about it?
Mr. Armstrong.
After I first heard about it.
Mr. Hubert.
How did you hear from him?
Mr. Armstrong.
On the telephone.
Mr. Hubert.
What did he say?
