Mr. Paul.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

I have a number of questions to ask you here and I think they will just simply flow along. Do you recall whether you received any telephone calls from Jack Ruby's sister, Eva Grant on Saturday, November the 23d, that is to say, the day after the President was shot?

Mr. Paul.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

You did not receive any calls?

Mr. Paul.

No, Sir.

Mr. Hubert.

Did you receive any calls from Andy Armstrong ?

Mr. Paul.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

Did you receive any calls on that day from any of Eva Grant's friends ?

Mr. Paul.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

Did you receive any call from Ruby that day ?

Mr. Paul.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

Do you remember when that was? Mr. PAUL. Well, one was--I think--at 6 o'clock.

Mr. Hubert.

That's on Saturday?

Mr. Paul.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

Where were you then?

Mr. Paul.

At the place of business.

Mr. Hubert.

That's at the Bull Pen?

Mr. Paul.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

He called you?

Mr. Paul.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

Did he tell you where he was calling from ?

Mr. Paul.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

Now, do you know where he was calling from ?

Mr. Paul.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

How long did you speak to him?

Mr. Paul.

Oh, about 3 minutes 4 minutes

Mr. Hubert.

What was the conversation about, do you recall ?

Mr. Paul.

Just telling me that he closed the club down for 3 days.

Mr. Hubert.

Now, are you speaking of Friday night or Saturday night?

Mr. Paul.

Both. He said, did I see the ad in the paper, and I said, "No, don't get Saturday's paper."

Mr. Hubert.

This was on Saturday?

Mr. Paul.

Yes; on Saturday.

Mr. Hubert.

Had you talked to him on Friday night?

Mr. Paul.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

Hadn't he told you on Friday night that he was going to close down the club?

Mr. Paul.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

But he called you again on SatUrday night about 6 o'clock, and did he tell you the same thing ?

Mr. Paul.

No; he asked me if I saw it in the paper.

Mr. Hubert.

And that's what that call was about?

Mr. Paul.

Yes

Mr. Hubert.

And there was no other subject of conversation

Mr. Paul.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

Now, on Saturday night, November 23, did you see a man by the name of Bruce Carlin?

Mr. Paul.

I didn't see anybody on Saturday night because I was working.
