Mr. Crafard.

about he was going to be closed, that we was going to be closed that night. He seemed to think if we closed and the other clubs stayed open it might help a little bit, help the club a little bit, or something.

Mr. Griffin.

So that in Jack's mind closing was an aid to his business?

Mr. Crafard.

I believe so; yes.

Mr. Hubert.

Larry, when you decided to go, to leave Dallas, I take it that you packed up all your belongings because you didn't expect to come back.

Mr. Crafard.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

I think you told us you had two little cases?

Mr. Crafard.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

Did you search around to see that you had done all that needed to be done?

Mr. Crafard.

I knew I had everything that I wanted to take with me. I left a couple old shirts and a pair of old pants, I believe, that I left there.

Mr. Hubert.

And you left the book?

Mr. Crafard.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

What about that letter that you had written to Gale?

Mr. Crafard.

I don't even recall a letter that I had wrote to her that I had left there.

Mr. Hubert.

Did you know that there was a letter there with your aunt's address on it?

Mr. Crafard.

I had received a letter, but I believe I had threw the envelope into the waste basket or something like that.

Mr. Hubert.

How long before you left had you received that letter?

Mr. Crafard.

I think it had been probably about a week, I'm not sure.

Mr. Hubert.

Did it stay in the wastebasket all that time?

Mr. Crafard.

I think I had it lay on my desk, on the table there, for a couple days, 3 or 4 days, or something like that.

Mr. Hubert.

And then threw it in the wastepaper basket?

Mr. Crafard.

Yes; the wastebasket wouldn't have gotten empty until I emptied it, and I wouldn't have emptied it until it was full.

Mr. Hubert.

Did anyone else know about your aunt, her address in Harrison?

Mr. Crafard.

I believe Jack and Andy both knew that I had received a letter from my cousin.

Mr. Hubert.

Your aunt and cousin? Well, it is Gail?

Mr. Crafard.

Gail, Miss Eaton.

Mr. Hubert.

How did they know that? How do you remember that they knew that?

Mr. Crafard.

Well, the fact, the reason I remember it, there was some mall in on Jack's desk for one of the guys and he told me to bring it out by the cash register on the front desk and give it to them when I went in, and when I went and got it there was this letter addressed to me. I said something to Jack because he hadn't give it to me and he said he didn't know that was my name, and Andy was there when I said something.

Mr. Hubert.

Have you any reason to believe that he or Andy made a record of your aunt's address?

Mr. Crafard.

No

Mr. Hubert.

When you left, then, so far as you knew, no one was aware of your aunt's address or of Gail Eaton's address?

Mr. Crafard.

That is right.

Mr. Hubert.

You had forgotten that the envelope was in the wastepaper basket?

Mr. Crafard.

Yes; I had said something to one of the waitresses about my cousin in Michigan, about where she had lived in Michigan, that she lived in Harrison.

Mr. Hubert.

Which one of the waitresses did you say that to?

Mr. Crafard.

I believe there was two of them there at the time. I think it was Bonnie and Little Marg, Marjory.

Mr. Hubert.

You had told them that you had a cousin called Gail?

Mr. Crafard.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

And that she lived in Harrison?
