Mr. Liebeler. Tell me what happened, and the circumstances and what you saw?
Mrs. Wood. He thought he was the same man they saw out at the gun range. In fact, he was sure of it. And he asked Sterling, and Sterling said, "Yes, daddy, it is the same man." And they were very, very sure of it at the time.
Mr. Liebeler. Now, was Sterling in the room? Did your husband first see Oswald's picture on the television or in the newspapers; do you remember?
Mrs. Wood. I don't remember exactly. I think it was the newspapers or somewhere. They had three pictures of him. I think it was in the newspapers. Could have been on television.
Mr. Liebeler. Now, was Sterling there at the time your husband first spoke of this to you?
Mrs. Wood. No, I don't think so. I think he later asked Sterling.
Mr. Liebeler. Do you remember whether he asked Sterling, or whether Sterling mentioned it of his own accord without any prompting from his father? Do you remember how that happened?
Mrs. Wood. No, I don't remember exactly. I know they were both talking about it. They were both pretty sure that he was the man.
Mr. Liebeler. But you have no recollection at this point that your husband first saw a picture and said to you, now, in substance, that this looked like the man he saw on the rifle range and he wanted to wait and see if Sterling recognized him also, and that he purposely did not mention it to Sterling, but waited to see if Sterling would come forward with the same idea? Do you remember that happening?
Mrs. Wood. No; my husband was very, very sure. In fact, he was positive. And there was a friend that they met at the range. I think it was the same day. He called him to see if he thought, or if he had recognized Oswald.
