Mrs. Grant.

big ads from all over the State," and he said, "Did you read it?" And so I read it again.

Mr. Burleson.

While he was waiting?

Mrs. Grant.

No; but I mean since then--I looked at it--I'll be honest about it, I didn't comprehend it.

Mr. Burleson.

Okay.

Mrs. Grant.

You see, I didn't comprehend it.

Mr. Burleson.

Tell us what else he said.

Mrs. Grant.

Well, Jack said something about John Newman, the fellow that takes the ads there and he says, "You know, Jack, I have to take orders from my superiors," and Jack, whether he told me that night or later on in the afternoon--he said, "What are you so money hungry? That you have to take $1,500 for an ad?" Jack knew a full page cost approximately that--I mean, he is well aware of that.

Mr. Burleson.

Let me bring you forward a little bit on these occasions that you told the FBI about in these statements where Jack spent this time with you at your house would you watch television during this period of time or some of the time?

Mrs. Grant.

Well, he didn't. I had watched it a great deal that afternoon on a Friday, and he came over--it seems to me when he left the News he came over and came back later on with a lot of groceries and by that time either I saw Curry or somebody else on the television and he was saying, "We got the right man."

Mr. Burleson.

Did Jack see that?

Mrs. Grant.

I don't know--I-really don't know. I tell you--usually under those pills, I thought I heard it plenty that day, and we got sick when we were talking about that.

Mr. Burleson.

Did you and Jack talk about Lee Harvey Oswald?

Mrs. Grant.

He had made very few remarks-- he says, "He's a creep." You see, "a creep" is a real low life to Jack and "what a creep he is" he says, and he was sick--he went in the bathroom.

Mr. Burleson.

Did he actually vomit?

Mrs. Grant.

He did. not--he was sick to his stomach and he cried, he looked terrible he just wasn't himself, and truthfully, so help me, I remember even my mother's funeral--it just killed him. He said this, "Someone tore my heart out," and he says, "I didn't even feel so bad when pops died because pappa was an old man. He was close to 90."

Mr. Burleson.

What did Jack have to say about President Kennedy?

Mrs. Grant.

Oh, all I know is that it just killed him. I'll tell you the truth-- he sat there like it wasn't worth life like he thought they were out to get the world, the whole world, and this was part of it.

Mr. Burleson.

All right. He was very respectful of President Kennedy as a man and as a President?

Mrs. Grant.

Oh, he admired him--he thought this man was a great man of courage. If I said anything like I said there something about his brother and integration, he said, "This man is greater, than Lincoln"--the same night.

Mr. Burleson.

Did Jack ever have an occasion to say anything to you about a letter that was in the newspaper that was written by some man, purportedly to President Kennedy's daughter, Caroline?

Mrs. Grant.

I don't know about that, but the week--the same week of the assassination--I think it was Monday or Tuesday--it was that week, there was a picture of the President sitting behind the desk just like you are and John-John was sitting at the front and you could see him playing around, I think it was his father's feet, and he called it his house...I think, let me put it this way: My brother says, "This kid don't know his father is the President and the father don't act like a President." He meant that he was just like a good guy--like acting ordinarily, like he wasn't of wealth or power--he was just like the average young man and Jack looked at him as even being much younger than he was.

Mr. Burleson.

But you don't know anything about such a letter being in the paper that Jack saw?

Mrs. Grant.

I don't know--if he did, I don't know it. I'll tell you, I don't know about that picture it was the first week that I was home.
