(Testimony of Gary E. Taylor)

Mr. Taylor.
service station was west of the South Freeway, as I say, about a mile north of Texas Christian University.
Mr. Jenner.
Uh-huh.
Mr. Taylor.
I did originally think that it was on University but, upon investigation of the--visual investigation, actually being there one evening, why we did locate it and it was in another place.
Mr. Jenner.
The place that you located when Mr. Yelchek accompanied you was different from the one that you had remembered when you first talked to the FBI?
Mr. Taylor.
Yes; however, it, in my mind, is a positive identification. There is no question about it.
Mr. Jenner.
Your more recent one is?
Mr. Taylor.
Yes; when Mr. Yelchek and I went. I was able to positively identify the location. I might add, after having talked to him since then, that the owner says that---or there is no record of the rental at this location. There seems to be a set of duplicate books involved---one for themselves and one for the National Trailer Co., whichever one it was. A little fraud, or something, involved in that. We didn't get too involved in it--just to know that there wasn't any record.
Mr. Jenner.
Is the name J. H. Pendley familiar to you?
Mr. Taylor.
No.
Mr. Jenner.
Do you have your driver's license with you?
Mr. Taylor.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
Would you look at it and tell me what the number of it is?
Mr. Taylor.
1606670. And that's my memory that's talking.
(Witness then takes the driver's license from billfold and hands to Mr. Jenner.)
Mr. Jenner.
1606670.
(Hands license back to witness.)
Did the people from whom you rented the trailer take your driver's license number on that occasion?
Mr. Taylor.
I don't remember. It's common--in fact, it's normal procedure to take the license number--driver's license and vehicle license.
Mr. Jenner.
How long have you had that number?
Mr. Taylor.
It's permanent in the State of Texas.
Mr. Jenner.
So you had it on this occasion--the same number?
Mr. Taylor.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
What's the practice in Texas in respect to license numbers? Do you get a new one every year, or do you get a sticker--or what?
Mr. Taylor.
Vehicle?
Mr. Jenner.
Yes.
Mr. Taylor.
They change from year to year.
Mr. Jenner.
They change the number?
Mr. Taylor.
Yes; they do.
Mr. Jenner.
Do you, by any chance, remember your license number in 1962?
Mr. Taylor.
No.
Mr. Jenner.
Do you ever recall having a license number with the digit letters "E" and "Y"?
Mr. Taylor.
I would never have a license tag with that number.
Mr. Jenner.
With those prefix letters?
Mr. Taylor.
Yes; as long as I lived in Dallas.
Mr. Jenner.
Why is that, sir?
Mr. Taylor.
The "E" prefix--the prefixes beginning with "E" are for Tarrant County, of which Fort Worth is a part.
Mr. Jenner.
And you being in Dallas County, your initials are what--your prefixes?
Mr. Taylor.
In Dallas County they would be some of the "M" prefix, all of the "N" and "P".
Mr. Jenner.
"N" as in "Nancy," "P" as in "Paul"?
Mr. Taylor.
Yes; and some of the "M" as in "Mary."
Mr. Jenner.
But it would be a combination of two or more of those three letters?
