Mr. Griffin. How long before you saw Ruby in November?
Mrs. Cheek. Just before I went down to the club, you know, and met him.
Mr. Griffin. He said something to you also about Mrs. Grant, Eva Grant?
Mrs. Cheek. Mr. Martin. He said both were good friends of him, and said Mrs. Grant operated the club on Oak Lawn for Mr. Ruby.
Mr. Griffin. Do you remember anything else he told you?
Mrs. Cheek. I don’t remember all the conversation.
Mr. Griffin. Did you call this Mr. Martin that said he had dinner with Jack Ruby?
Mrs. Cheek. Yes; he was a real good friend of his and a real nice fellow, and Mr. Martin said he was in the oil business and he was just kind of playing with that club over there because he liked the nightclub business, and he wanted $25,000 for half interest in it, and I thought it was too much money.
Mr. Griffin. How did you happen to know Martin?
Mrs. Cheek. Just looking for clubs, and I saw Mr. Martin’s. I found out who owned the club. I don’t remember just how I found out who owned a place. Sometimes I might go down to the records, if they buy the land, and look to see who owns it. Then I contact them like that.
