No, sir.

What did you do when you got out of the Navy?

I returned to work for Merchants Delivery.

Then what did you do?

Well, just from there I jumped around from roofing companies. I started in roofing then and I worked for Donald Bost, which is Town & Country Roofing Co., for on up until about 4 years ago, I guess. Then I just started mechanicing.

You started to become an automobile mechanic?

Yes.

For whom did you work then?

I worked in Martinez, Calif., for Donley Chevrolet & Cadillac Co., and then later on I was transferred to their paint and body shop, and then I came back to Dallas and I worked for Mr. Harris.

For whom?

Mr. Harris, at Dootch Motors.

Dootch Motors?

Yes, sir.

Are you still working for them now? That is, as a mechanic?

Yes, sir.

How long have you been working for Dootch now?

Well, off and on about 3 years. During this time I went back to Merchants Delivery and worked there and then I worked for Southern Delivery, too.

Now when was the last time you went back to Dootch Motors?

It's been a year ago.

You have been working for them ever since?

Yes, sir.

Taking you back to November 22, 1963, anything unusual happen that day?

On the 22d?

22d of November 1963?

This would be embarrassing. Was that the day of the Assassination of the President?

Yes.

I was thinking it was the 24th. Well, nothing except it seemed like a pretty nice day.

Do you remember what day of the week it was?

I don't remember.

Do you remember the day that the President was assassinated?

No.
