    "ocrText": "-3-\nThis conversation centered principally on Central and South\nAmerica -- the best way to get there and the general living\nconditions. GIRNUS, who said he had traveled quite a bit in\nCentral America, told OSWALD what he knew about these countries.\nSuddenly, at this point in the interview, GIRNUS told me he did\nnot want to give me any more details. He said the institution\n(penitentiary) bugged him, and he did not want to talk any further\nlest he get himself into a storm. (He was obviously committing\ncrimes in this area, and was fearfulof prosecution). He said he\ndid not realize I would be taking down everything he said. He\ntold me he would have someone in Atlanta send me a picture of two\nto me\npeople. One of the persons in the picture was LEE OSWALD. He\nthis\nsaid the picture was taken in Mexico. Additionally, he was\nsending me an FAA flight plan which would be self explanatory and\nhelpful in our investigation. FERRIE allegedly had something to\ndo with the flight recorded on the flight plan.\nI\nassured him we were only interested in facts that aided us in\nour investigation, but he still refused to go on with a fact-\ndetailing interview. So I put my pad away, and engaged him in\ngeneral conversation about the prison. During this conversation\nI was able to elicit a few more facts.\n?\nThe last time GIRNUS saw OSWALD was when he drove him to CatullaD\nTexas. This trip took place sometime in September, 1963) While\nin Catulla, GIRNUS introduced OSWALD to a friend of his who was\nan\nex-Mexican army man. OSWALD and GIRNUS' friend went into\nMexico through Laredo, Texas. Their trip had something to do\nwith getting OSWALD': passport.\nGIRNUS attended several parties where SHAW was present. At least\none of these took place in Hammond, Louisiana) GIRNUS thought\nSHAW\n%\nit was SHAW's home, but he was not sure of this OSWALD was at\nthis particular party which took place in a Glarge colonial brick\n(house which had a big yard all around it.\nThough GIRNUS terminated this particular interview abruptly and\nat a crucial time, I feel he will talk to me further."
