Mr. Thornley. As if it had been thrust upon him for no reason whatsoever, out of the blue.
Mr. Jenner. Did you have a feeling that he was impulsive in that respect, in the sense that sometimes he did things?
Mr. Thornley. He was definitely impulsive.
Mr. Jenner. That he had no control?
Mr. Thornley. Well, I don't know whether he had no control or whether he would just do things without thinking. I think maybe he just let, relaxed his controls once in a while, and why, I don't know.
Mr. Jenner. Did you have the feeling he was impulsive?
Mr. Thornley. Oh, definitely.
Mr. Jenner. He acted on the spur of the moment?
Mr. Thornley. He was spontaneous, very much so. This was—I had this impression the whole time I knew him.
Mr. Jenner. You did have the impression and I think you have mentioned it several times, that he had an exaggerated, either mild or otherwise, self-esteem.
