(Testimony of George Senator Resumed)
Mr. Senator.
No; I don't know what I did Thursday at all. I don't know what I did. Now there is a little twist in the thing right now. After we saw the paper and the poster, he has just got this twisted around.
Mr. Griffin.
Read what he has and then let's talk about it.
Mr. Senator.
"They went to the Southland Hotel Coffee Shop and had coffee, Ruby drinking grapefruit juice. While there Ruby reread the ad and made comments about it. They left the coffee shop and went to the main Dallas post office on Ervay where Ruby rang the night bell." Then it continues, but the thing is this is reversed.
Mr. Griffin.
What you are saying is that you went to the post office before you had coffee?
Mr. Senator.
Yes. This is reversed. Now does the reversal mean anything?
Mr. Griffin.
Yes.
Mr. Senator.
There is a bunch that you have to reverse in this.
Mr. Griffin.
Let's get it straight then as to what actually happened there.
Mr. Senator.
You want to reread it from here? It sounds all right except the reversal,
Mr. Griffin.
You read everything that is wrong, everything that is reversed and so forth and then we will try to put it in proper order.
Mr. Senator.
The only thing I can do is read the reversal and leave the other as it is. In other words, when he is doing this he would have to say this was first and the other was last. I don't know how to do it.
Mr. Griffin.
You read the text that is improper.
Mr. Senator.
In other words, take these down in a line, is that what you mean?
Mr. Griffin.
From the point that it gets out of order.
Mr. Senator.
What I just read where it was out of order?
Mr. Griffin.
The only two things out of order, let me understand this, are that you went to the post office before you went to the Southland Hotel?
Mr. Senator.
Yes.
Mr. Griffin.
And so the discussion you had at the Southland Hotel about the Weissman ad occurred after you saw the Earl Warren sign and after you went to the post office?
Mr. Senator.
That is right. Now do you want some change in here?
Mr. Griffin.
No; I think that is clear.
Mr. Senator.
Let me finish the balance of this. That whole complete thing is right now.
Mr. Griffin.
We have corrected it on the record?
Mr. Senator.
Yes. When he is quoting about a certain time, if it is an hour off or a half hour off, is there any difference?
Mr. Griffin.
Well, if you have----
Mr. Senator.
He says about which is all fight. He has got a time there.
Mr. Griffin.
Do you think your recollection now is more accurate.
Mr. Senator.
No, no. All I want to know when it says about. In other words, that means approximately a certain time, in that area, is that right?
Mr. Griffin.
That is right.
Mr. Senator.
That is all. Let me ask you on something like this. Maybe I ain't reading this correct. "He said the fact that Ruby had the dog Sheba to which he was very attached in the car when he went to the police station alone would indicate that he intended to return soon."
Mr. Griffin.
Yes. What is unclear about that?
Mr. Senator.
It sounds like I was telling him that he went to the police station. This is the way it sounds to me.
Mr. Griffin.
No; it sounds to me like you are saying to Agent Moore that because Jack had Sheba with him down there at the police station, you draw the conclusion that Jack just went down there on a casual basis and intended to come back.
Mr. Senator.
All I know is that when he left the house he had Sheba with him. That I know.
Mr. Griffin.
Now do you draw any particular significance about his having Sheba with him? Does the fact that he had Sheba with him suggest something to you about Jack planning to kill Oswald and not planning----
