Mrs. Robertson.

something, but he did speak verbally to me and I wrote in my own handwriting and I used a shorthand notebook. I wrote in my own handwriting.

Mr. Hubert.

And then you used your own handwriting for the purpose of writing the letter?

Mrs. Robertson.

That's correct.

Mr. Hubert.

What did you do with your own handwriting notes?

Mrs. Robertson.

Anything like that I always take and I tear up and put in the wastebasket.

Mr. Hubert.

And you think that's what happened here?

Mrs. Robertson.

Well, I'm certain it did.

Mr. Hubert.

But you don't know the existence of those notes now, is what I am getting at?

Mrs. Robertson.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

Do you know how many copies you made?

Mrs. Robertson.

There again, I could not swear to you under oath exactly. Ordinarily we make an original and five. Now, whether Lieutenant Revill just might have said that an original and three will be enough, I cannot tell you.

Mr. Hubert.

You don't know how many you made?

Mrs. Robertson.

No--I cannot--I absolutely do not remember that.

Mr. Hubert.

But the normal practice would have been to make more than one copy?

Mrs. Robertson.

More than the original?

Mr. Hubert.

More than the original and one copy--normally you would write the original and how many copies?

Mrs. Robertson.

Now, by this going to the captain that is not necessarily so. Anything we address to the chief we would have definitely more than one carbon copy, but for little instances like that, I cannot remember--Lieutenant Revill just might have said "an original and one will be enough."

Mr. Hubert.

Do you recall that he did say so?

Mrs. Robertson.

I do not---absolutely.

Mr. Hubert.

And you don't really know how many you did make?

Mrs. Robertson.

I cannot tell you--I cannot remember.

Mr. Hubert.

When the letter was finished, what happened to it?

Mrs. Robertson.

I called Lieutenant Revill, as well as I can remember, I called him into my office. Now, I might. have gone into his office, but I took it directly to him. I waited and let him read it and let him proof it over to see it and I know he questioned me---he said, "Are you sure this is the correct way to spell assassination?" And I said, "Yes, sir; I looked it up in the dictionary," and he read the letter and then as I remember, I got my personal belongings together and I left the building then.

Mr. Hubert.

So, you handed the original and copy or copies to him?

Mrs. Robertson.

Directly to Lieutenant Revill.

Mr. Hubert.

And you don't know what he did with it, to your own knowledge?

Mrs. Robertson.

Oh, no; I left the building.

Mr. Hubert.

Do you know anything about what the figures in the lower right-hand corner on Exhibit 1, that is to say, Commission Exhibit No. 838, mean?

Mrs. Robertson.

Yes; I do.

Mr. Hubert.

What do they mean?

Mrs. Robertson.

The captain has flies of copies and that is his own, and his own personal file. In fact, he gave me a letter, a photostat, which he said it would be quite all right to show that that is his own and that that appears on his file, you know what I mean, the way he has it set up.

Mr. Hubert.

You are talking about what?

Mrs. Robertson.

The O-1 is what I'm talking about.

Mr. Hubert.

Now, you are showing me a document that is exactly the same actually, it seems to be a photostatic copy of Exhibits Nos. 1 and 2, that you have just testified to.

Mrs. Robertson.

That's right, this is in the captain's files.

Mr. Hubert.

This is from the captain's files and in the left-hand side it shows "WPG"?

Mrs. Robertson.

That's Capt. W. P. Gannaway.
