Mr. Hubert. In other words, when you told him that you were coming to clean he seemed to express some surprise, is that it?
Mrs. Pitts. Yes, sir; like he didn’t know that I was going to come and clean.
Mr. Hubert. Did he recognize you?
Mrs. Pitts. I don’t know if he did or not. And I says to him again, I says, “This is Elnora.” And he says, “Well, what do you want?” And I said, “Well, I was coming to clean today.”
“You coming now?” And I says, “No.”
Mr. Hubert. He asked you then, “Are you coming now?”
Mrs. Pitts. Yes, sir; and then I says, “No.” And he says, “Well, what you got to do?” And I says, “I have got to go to the store for the children.” I always goes to the store for the children before I come to work whenever I come. He says, “Well,”—I says, “You seem so funny to me.” And I says, “Do you want me to come today?” And he says, “Well, yes; you can come, but you call me.” And I says, “That’s what I’m doing now, calling you so I won’t have to call you again.” And he says, “And you coming to clean today?” And I said, “Yes.” Well, he sounded so strange to me but I still wouldn’t say nothing to him. I just stopped another few minutes, and I said, “Who am I talking to? Is this Mr. Jack Ruby?” And he said, “Yes. Why?” And I said, “Oh, nothing.” But he just sounded terrible strange to me, so, I said, “Well, I’ll call you.” And he says, “But, I don’t see why I called you.” And he said, “Yes, so I can tell you where the key will be and the money.” And I said, “Okay.” So, I hung up.
Mr. Hubert. Did you arrange a time to go then?
Mrs. Pitts. He told me to call him before I come.
Mr. Hubert. Did he tell you what time?
