Just at that time I looked up and saw a Catholic priest coming toward us. It was not Father Huber. It was a man I did not recognize. I later understood he was the Catholic chaplain of the hospital. I am not sure about that. I got up and walked a few steps to meet him, and I said, "Father, take my chair by Mrs. Kennedy." Which he did do. In the meantime, my husband had come back in, and I stepped back where my husband was standing, and we stood there until the casket was wheeled out.
Mr. Hubert. Was any announcement made to Mrs. Kennedy of the death of her husband?
Mrs. Cabell. Not while I was in there. I am under the impression—you see, I was still sitting out in the car when they brought Vice President, I guess then, and Mrs. Johnson out and put them in the car and took them away.
Mr. Hubert. Did you know of the President's death when you went to Mrs. Kennedy?
Mrs. Cabell. Congressman Roberts had come back to the car and said, "He is gone."
Mr. Hubert. It is your impression that Mrs. Kennedy then knew of the death of her husband when you first came up to her?
Mrs. Cabell. That is my impression. We did not discuss it.
Mr. Hubert. Now I understand that there was a telephone call received by you that was of a threatening nature?
Mrs. Cabell. Yes.
Mr. Hubert. Would you tell us about that, please, ma'am? The time and so forth?
