Mr. Hosty. I have had discussions with him on two occasions since then. We did not discuss this matter of the 22d of November, this conversation of the 22d.
Mr. Stern. Did you discuss the assassination with him on either of these two occasions that you recall?
Mr. Hosty. No, sir.
Mr. Stern. The only conversation you had with him was going up the stairway from the basement to the third floor of the police headquarters on November 22?
Mr. Hosty. That is correct.
Representative Ford. Do you recall the dates of these two subsequent meetings with him?
Mr. Hosty. No, sir; I don't. Just the first time was maybe in January, January sometimes, possibly February, and that was at his office. Then he came to our office maybe in March. I just don't recall the dates.
Representative Ford. But those visits were on matters not at all related to the assassination or the events surrounding it?
Mr. Hosty. Actually, when he came to our office he was coming to talk to another agent, and I just said "Hello" to him, and we didn't discuss anything official. I just nodded "hello" to him, "How are you doing?" When I went to his office it was in connection with another matter.
Mr. Stern. But on neither occasion did you discuss the assassination or the events surrounding it?
