Mr. Reeves. I wouldn’t say for sure now, but it was, all I know is I just remember being—it scared me, you know. I was scared, you know, I didn’t want Jack—some kind of unknown guy to come along and kill him, a guy just working for him, and I heard him say it, and I told Jack. What I wanted Jack to do was go back there and hide until the boy got in a good humor, you see.
Jack Ruby—seemed—he was always a nice fellow to me and I wasn’t thinking about him being rough enough to do something like that. I really wasn’t, because I never thought no more about Jack Ruby coming around in the garage, coming in my office around there talking to me—he came around a lot of times late at night. He maybe would stop by and say a few words and he treated me just like a baby. He would bring me sandwiches and things like that and I figured he was just a nice fellow, you know, is all I could figure out.
Now, he had a good many—I don’t remember—it seems to me like he had several more. If there was anybody that came into town that was broke and Jack knew it, he would take them in and get them some clothes and feed them and give them some money.
Mr. Hubert. How do you know all that?
Mr. Reeves. Well, I would see him doing it. Whether the guy was all right, I don’t know. They was strangers to me. I was working for the Allright Co., worked 12 hours a night and have been for 2 or 3 years and I was just seeing things—seeing people doing it and I thought he was running a legitimate place. I knew I was running a perfect place, the parking system, and we’ve got lots of customers, and you know, people parking in our place, going up to his club, parking in there.
Mr. Hubert. All right, Mr. Reeves, is there anything else you know about this—any other facts that might throw some light on the assassination of President Kennedy or the shooting of Lee Oswald?
Mr. Reeves. Nothing that I know of, because I didn’t know Oswald. If I ever seen him, I don’t remember. The only thing, after I seen his picture in the newspapers and come out on the television with the pictures and all, it seemed like his face got familiar, but I never seen him before that I know of.
Mr. Hubert. You say you have seen pictures of Oswald in the paper and all that?
Mr. Reeves. That’s right, and on television.
Mr. Hubert. So that you formed the impression that maybe you had seen him before?
