Caroline said, "Well, do you want to do something about it?"

I said, "No; not now. Wait until I gather my thoughts and see if I'm advised what to do. I don't want to do anything that I shouldn't do."

Mr. Jenner. Uh-huh.

Mrs. Bates. Because he hadn't been—he had not been—uh—charged then even with the assassination. He'd just been picked up.

Mr. Jenner. Uh-huh.

Mrs. Bates. So, then she called me Wednesday morning before Thanksgiving and she said, "Let's do a story on it." So, we sat all Wednesday afternoon and talked. So—it wasn't any spur of the moment thing.

Mr. Jenner. Yes. I wasn't meaning to suggest that.

Mrs. Bates. No, no; I know that. But we tried to make it just the 3 days he was in my office—and that was a little difficult to do because of all the things that happened since.

Mr. Jenner. Yes; in the interim.

Mrs. Bates. Uh-huh.
