    "ocrText": "7/16/53 - 48\nThere were some entertaining aspects of the security business. They attached to\nFoster, and to me, always, when I was in Paris, an Inspector. I had two in the four\nyears; one was away or something, wasn't anctit available, but usually it was one of these\ntwo men. We became very great friends and thoroughly attached to one mother, and he\nused to go everywhere that I went. I used to walk down in the morning to get some air,\non the Left side, and at his request we varied the route so that we didn't have one route,\nbut one day we'd walked down the Left Bank, and there was another walk down the Right Bank,\nand there was another walk that cut over through the Archli de Triompheand dom the Champs\nElyseé; there was another that went up the Ave.\ns and then cut down a large\nBoulevard which came in. I've forgotten the name of that street. But weid do these\nin no regular order, not because they were particularly alarmed but they thought\nit undesirable, and it shouldn't be predictable where I was going to go.\nHe, the Inspector, Lulce and I and quite often Dave Bruce, unless Dave had some reason\nto be down there a little early, would walk together. One day we were walking along and\nthe Ambassador was not there-Luke, the Inspector, and I were walking along.

And finally, he was one one side of me and\nhe said,\nthe Inspector on the other, and he said to me,\"I don't want to alarm you, but Inspec-\ntor zon' I think you ought to know that there's a car following us.\" The Inspector said,\n\"Yes, it's mine.\" So he walked with me and then there was this police car with mare\nofficers which would go along very slowly, about 20 feet behind.\nQ. It was quite nerve-wrecking 11 dich't know what it was.\nDA. The Inppector, in talking with Luke, told him that he had also taken care of\nGeneral Mershall, and that this was a very desirable assignment to have on account of\nor the Embassy residence\nthe opportunity to get some food. He would have some meals at the Embassy, or he would"
