Mrs. Connally.

Yes, I was. But I assume that was before, since they left together, not much of a visit. She came by and we didn't have to say much, and then they left.

Mr. Specter.

Mrs. Connally, what was your impression, if any, as to the source of the shots?

Mrs. Connally.

Well, I had no thought of whether they were high or low or where. They just came from the right; sounded like they were to my right.

Mr. Specter.

How many did you hear in all?

Mrs. Connally.

I heard three.

Mr. Specter.

What is your best estimate on the time that passed from the first to the last shot?

Mrs. Connally.

Very short. It seemed to me that there was less time between the first and the second than between the second and the third.

Mr. Specter.

About how fast do you think the car was going then?

Mrs. Connally.

I don't really know. Not too fast. It was sort of a letdown time for us. We could relax for, we thought we could, for just a minute.

Mr. Specter.

And you mean by that since the major part of the crowd had been passed?

Mrs. Connally.

We had gone by them. The underpass was in sight, and I knew that as soon as we passed through the underpass that then we would be going straight to the Trade Mart for the luncheon, and I felt, like we would then be moving fast and not have people on all sides of us.

Mr. Specter.

Did you see the films this morning here in the Commission office?

Mrs. Connally.

Yes, I did.

Mr. Specter.

Did you have an opinion as to which frame it was that Governor Connally was shot?

Mrs. Connally.

Yes. I was in agreement with the Governor. I am not sure I remember the numbers so correct me, but I thought at the time that it was that 229--it could have been then through the next three or four frames.

Mr. Specter.

Do you have anything----

Mrs. Connally.

They were blurred.

Mr. Specter.

With respect to the source, you say you thought it was to the right---did you have any reaction as to whether they were from the front, rear or side?

Mrs. Connally.

I thought it was from back of us.

Mr. Specter.

To the rear?

Mrs. Connally.

To the right; that is right.

Mr. Specter.

Did you have any reaction as to the question of elevation or level?

Mrs. Connally.

No, I didn't.

Mr. Specter.

Do you have anything else to add which you think would be helpful to the Commission in any way?

Mrs. Connally.

I don't think so.

The Chairman.

Are there any other questions? Senator, do you have any? Do you have any, Mr. Dulles?

Mr. Dulles.

I just have one question. Mrs. Connally, on one point your testimony differs from a good many others as to the timing of the shots. I think you said that there seemed to be more time between the second and third than between the first and the second; is that your recollection?

Mrs. Connally.

Yes.

Mr. Dulles.

That is, the space between the first and the second was less than between the second and the third? You realize I just wanted to get whether I had heard you correctly on that.

Mrs. Connally.

You did.

Mr. Dulles.

Thank you very much.

Mrs. Connally.

Thank you.

The Chairman.

Mrs. Connally, thank you very much. We hate to have you review all this in your mind's eye again, but it was necessary to have your testimony, and you were very kind to come.

Mrs. Connally.

Thank you.

The Chairman.

We appreciate it very much, indeed.
(Whereupon, at 5:45 p.m., the President's Commission adjourned.)
