Mr. Liebeler. You told him you were sick in the hospital and what?
Mr. Andrews. That's where I was when the call came through. It came through the hospital switchboard. I said that I wasn't in shape enough to go to Dallas and defend him and I would see what I could do.
Mr. Liebeler. Now what can you tell us about this Clay Bertrand? You met him prior to that time?
Mr. Andrews. I had seen Clay Bertrand once some time ago, probably a couple of years. He's the one who calls in behalf of gay kids normally, either to obtain bond or parole for them. I would assume that he was the one that originally sent Oswald and the gay kids, these Mexicanos, to the office because I had never seen those people before at all. They were just walk-ins.
Mr. Liebeler. You say that you think you saw Clay Bertrand some time about 2 years prior to the time you received this telephone call that you have just told us about?
Mr. Andrews. Yes; he is mostly a voice on the phone.
Mr. Liebeler. What day did you receive the telephone call from Clay Bertrand asking you to defend Oswald?
Mr. Andrews. I don't remember. It was a Friday or a Saturday.
Mr. Liebeler. Immediately following the assassination?
Mr. Andrews. I don't know about that. I didn't know. Yes; I did. I guess I did because I was—they told me I was squirrelly in the hospital.
