Mr. Oswald. He called me, sir.

Mr. Jenner. He called you by telephone?

Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir; he called me at my office from his place of employment in Fort Worth at that time.

Mr. Jenner. Give us the substance of what he said.

Mr. Oswald. We talked briefly about how each family was doing, and so forth, and he said that he would like to establish credit and he had tried to charge something at Montgomery Ward's at Fort Worth, the West 7th Street store, and they had stated that he needed to have somebody cosign or vouch for him, and this was his request to me, and I said gladly I would do so, and late that afternoon after work, this was approximately 5:30 by the time I arrived at Montgomery Ward, I did sign for Lee's charge account. However, I was not aware of what he was charging.

Mr. Jenner. There was no discussion, I take it, at that time of what—the use to which he intended to put his credit?

Mr. Oswald. No, sir; I believe perhaps he did mention something about a baby chair and a baby bed.

Mr. Jenner. Was there ever any discussion between you about his purchase or acquisition of a television set?

Mr. Oswald. No, sir; there was not.

Mr. Jenner. Were you ever in his home or apartment?
