cousin, Virginia, called the St. Louis office and told
them where I was going.
l.
When DAVID FERRIE told you that CLAY SHAW was keaping
Shaw:
HALE BOGGS in Congress, did he tell you who CLAY SHAW
was 'or what he did?
A.
He told ma he was a wealthy financier and he was one
of the wealthiest men in New Orleans and he mentioned
alconnection ha, and then he mentioned a connection
ba tween a man named KENT COURTNEY and then he also told
me that ha was flying -- he had flown one trip with
somebody named RICHARD LAUCHLI whom later I learned a
little bit about.
Q.
Did you know RICHARD LAUCHLI?
A.
I had mat him at the Stove Works at Collinsville,
Illinois, after I went back to Coulterville, Illinois.
I had never been to Coulterville before, I should say
that after my cousin left Illinois. Shortly thereafter
when Ii was told to "Go West, young man" this young man
lefe and I went to San Francisco, and there I remained
in comparative safety and silence because it does feel
kind of good to have all of that money coming in every
month.
l.
Did DAVE FERRIE ever talk to you about PERRY RAYMOND
RUSSO?
A.
Yes. He never did say -- not all the names you're
running off there.
Q.
Just PERRY RUSSO?
A.
He mentioned the name RUSSO and he called him numerous
Ruaso :
names but I strongly suspect there was something there.
I would only be projecting.
Q.
Dia DAVID FERRIE ever mention RUSSO in connection with
CLAY SHAW? For example, in an earlier interview I had
with you you told me that RUSSO was somehow involved
in either taking money from SHAW
A.
But that is yet to be determined. That is only what
DAVID said.
Q.
What did he say?
A.
He said something about it but the point was not too
clear. He had a distinct - he was very upset with
RUSSO but I know he got money from -- I can't remember,
three years is a long time for something that to me is
insignificant. Insignificant for the fact that I had
accepted the Warren Report.
Q.
Who said tha t?
A.
I had accepted the Warren Report.
Q.
Have you ever read it?
