K.
My wife maybe.
W.
Right after the assassination, when every body was saying
K.
I really wasn't sure, you know. I mean, it's one thing to
think that's possibly the person, and then to say it really
was. Because this might not have been the same person, because
people came and went from there.
You used to come around the Bourbon House too.

W.
K.
Yeah, I
W.
and when there used to be crowds in there, did you ever
see, I mean that you had the feeling that you might have seen
him walk through or around there?
K.
I've never seen - I know I've never seen the person that I saw
at the Ryder or the library at the Bourbon House. I am sure of
that now as far as I can be sure.
A.
How did he strike you, as a pretty nice fellow you said?
K.
Friendly.
A.
He didn't get off on any political tirades or anything like that?
K.
No. At that time I was not exactly involved in political things.
I was pro-nuclear disarmament at the time.
A.
Do you feel you might have discussed that with him?
K.
No, I don't think so.
A.
Have you ever heard of anyone else who might have seen him
down there in the Ryder Club?
K.
Not that I know of. Just the people that were there that
night. That's all.
W.
At that time you were down there, Richard, who was usually
around there.
