(Testimony of Andrew , Jr. Armstrong Resumed)
Mr. Hubert.
Well, we'll get to that in a moment, but before we do, let's dispose of these Exhibits 5310--A through 5310-G.
As far as you know, and you have read them, there is nothing in those exhibits that is incorrect?
Mr. Armstrong.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
It represents the truth as you know it and as you told it to the FBI agents?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, you say that there was something that was incorrect the other day that you said while in the course of your deposition?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Will you tell us what that was, please, sir?
Mr. Armstrong.
When you asked me what time did I leave the club on Saturday night.
Mr. Hubert.
Yes.
Mr. Armstrong.
I said 8 o'clock and in the report here it says 9, and after I read the report, I remembered that it was 9 o'clock when I left the club.
Mr. Hubert.
In other words, the correction you want to make, then, is not in the FBI report but in your own testimony?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Your memory has now been refreshed by the report and you actually recollect that your time of departure from the club on Saturday night?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Was 9 o'clock rather than 8 o'clock?
Mr. Armstrong.
Everything was right but the time.
Mr. Hubert.
Everything you said there was right except the time?
Mr. Armstrong.
Except the time.
Mr. Hubert.
And you wish to correct your previous testimony insofar as you stated that you left at 8 o'clock, so that the record will show that in fact you left at 9 o'clock on Saturday night?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
November 23?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
And you are telling me the reason you wish to make that correction is because of what?
Mr. Armstrong.
Because I remember that after reading the statement that it was 9 o'clock when I left.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, do you have an independent recollection of having left at 9 o'clock instead of 8 o'clock, or are you simply relying upon what the FBI record shows you must have told them?
Mr. Armstrong.
Well, no; it just brought back to my memory that it was originally set at 8 o'clock that I was going to leave. Then, before Jack left, he said, "Why don't you make it 9" and I didn't want to, but I said, "Okay," and that's when we got in the argument over the telephone and he wanted me to stay on until 10.
Mr. Hubert.
And at that time I thought you said you went ahead and left anyhow at 8 o'clock?
Mr. Armstrong.
Well, I did, but I went ahead and left anyway at 9 o'clock.
Mr. Hubert.
So, you were in error the other day when you said that after the argument with Jack you went ahead and left at 8, the time you had agreed upon anyhow?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
He wanted you to stay until 10?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
You had agreed to stay until 8?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
And you actually stayed until 9; is that correct?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, Mr. Armstrong, have you ever been interviewed before you met me by any member of the President's Commission?
Mr. Armstrong.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, of course, you have testified before me for a whole day now,
