Mr. Rankin. Did you receive it on or about the date it bears?
Mr. Johnson. I think so. I mean within those days; not on the day but afterward.
Mr. Rankin. Do you recall receiving the honorary membership card of esteem that he says he is sending to you?
Mr. Johnson. Somehow I do not; at least I never kept it, and it wasn't attached to the letter at all when I found it in the files, or anything like that. I do not recall that.
Mr. Rankin. Will you kindly initial Exhibit 3 too, please.
(Witness complies.)
Mr. Rankin. There is a reference in the second paragraph of Exhibit No. 3 to a clipping. Do you recall that at all?
Mr. Johnson. I recall a clipping that had something to do with either a distribution of literature or a—and I think that was it. I am not too sure whether it also had something about an arrest or some altercation that he had been in. I did not keep it. I did not regard it as of any particular significance.
Mr. Rankin. Do you recall destroying it or do you know what happened to the clipping?
Mr. Johnson. Well, things like that I would just very likely throw in the wastebasket; that's all.
