Mr. Wade. Saturday; yes, sir.
Mr. Rankin. About what time? Do you recall?
Mr. Wade. I guess I got home 2:30 probably. I must have eaten on the way home or somewhere.
Mr. Rankin. In the afternoon?
Mr. Wade. Yes, sir; and I know I was amazed as I walked through the television room there and saw Chief Curry with that gun. You see, at that time they had not identified the gun as his gun, but he was telling about the FBI report on it.
Mr. Rankin. Will you just describe what you saw there at that time?
Mr. Wade. Well, I know he was in a crowd, and it seems to me like he had the gun, but on second thought I am not even sure whether he had the gun, but he was tracing the history of how that the gun was bought under the name, under an assumed name from a mail-order house in Chicago and mailed there to Dallas, and that the serial number and everything that had been identified, that the FBI had done that, something else.
I believe they said they had a post office box here, a blind post office box that the recipients of that had identified as Oswald as the guy or something that received it.
In other words, he went directly over the evidence connecting him with the gun.
Mr. Rankin. You say there was a crowd there. Who was the crowd around him?
