Mr. Specter.

Was that from the front to back or from the back to front of the Governor's shirt?

Mr. Frazier.

That would be from the back towards the front. Downward from back towards the front.

Mr. Specter.

Mr. Dulles, those questions complete the ones which we have to ask, sir.
Mr. Frazier, one additional question: Do you have any knowledge through any source whatsoever of any bullets or bullet fragments found anywhere in the vicinity of the assassination other than those which you have already testified to, which were in the car, or the whole bullet from the Connally stretcher or the fragments from Governor Connally's wrist?

Mr. Frazier.

No, sir ;I have never heard of any nor have any been submitted to me.

Mr. Specter.

During the regular processing of the FBI examination in this case, would all such bullets or bullet fragments be brought to you for examination in accordance with your assignment to this matter generally?

Mr. Frazier.

Yes; they would.

Mr. Specter.

Were any metallic fragments brought to you which were purported to have been found in the head of President Kennedy?

Mr. Dulles.

Or body?

Mr. Specter.

Or body of President Kennedy?

Mr. Frazier.

Yes; they were.
On November 23, 1963, at 1:45 a.m., the two metal fragments in this container were delivered to me in the FBI laboratory by Special Agent James W. Sibert, and Special Agent Francis O'Neill of the Baltimore office of the FBI who stated they had obtained these in the autopsy room at the Naval Hospital near Washington, D.C., where they were present when they were removed from the head of President Kennedy.

Mr. Specter.

Is there any specification as to the portion of the President's head from which they were removed?

Mr. Frazier.

No, sir; they told me that there had been numerous particles in the head but only these two had been removed, the others being very small.

Mr. Specter.

May it please the Commission I would like to have those marked and admitted into evidence as Commission Exhibit No. 843.

Mr. Dulles.

It shall be so marked and admitted under those numbers.
(Commission Exhibit No. 843 was marked for identification and received in evidence.)

Mr. Specter.

In the event we have not already had 842 admitted into evidence, I move, Mr. Dulles, for the admission into evidence of 842 which was the fragment from Governor Connally's arm.

Mr. Dulles.

That shall be admitted.

Mr. Specter.

Moving back to 843 will you describe those fragments indicating their weight and general composition?

Mr. Frazier.

These fragments consisted of two pieces of lead, one weighed 1.65 grains. The other weighed .15 grain. They were examined spectrographically so their present weight would be somewhat less since a very small amount would be needed for spectrographic analysis.

Mr. Specter.

Was a comparison made between or among these two fragments with the other metal from the bullets heretofore identified as Commission Exhibits 399, 567, 569, 840, and 842?

Mr. Frazier.

Yes; they were.

Mr. Specter.

What did that examination disclose?

Mr. Frazier.

Possibly my numbers do not agree with those you have. These two particles from the President's head were compared with the lead of Exhibit 842.

Mr. Specter.

Which is the fragment from the arm of Governor Connally?

Mr. Frazier.

Yes, sir; they were compared with the lead scraping from the inside of the windshield.

Mr. Specter.

Which is Exhibit 841.

Mr. Frazier.

And with the three lead fragments found on the rear floorboard carpet of the limousine.

Mr. Specter.

Which is Exhibit 840.
