Mr. McCloy. Did he complain that you had been abusing or harassing his wife in anyway?
Mr. Hosty. He made the statement, "If you want to talk to me don't bother my wife. Come and see me." He didn't say that I had abused his wife in any manner, and I hadn't. He did criticize me for talking to her. He said, "Come talk to me if you want to talk to me."
Representative Ford. Is that why he knew your name, because of your conversations with her?
Mr. Hosty. Yes; apparently.
Mr. Stern. Had you ever seen Oswald before?
Mr. Hosty. Not until that time. That was the first time I had seen him.
Senator Cooper. Can you remember what he said about the FBI specifically?
Mr. Hosty. He called us gestapo, secret police, we were harassing people. It was along that line. I don't recall the exact wording.
Mr. Stern. Was he handcuffed at this time?
Mr. Hosty. He was handcuffed behind him. After he calmed down he asked Captain Fritz if they could remove the handcuffs. Captain Fritz ordered one of his detectives to remove them from the rear, and they handcuffed him in front.
