Mrs. Grant. Well, we had the same band leader—yes—almost 8 years.

Mr. Hubert. Who was he?

Mrs. Grant. Joe Johnson.

Mr Hubert. And what happened?

Mrs. Grant. Well, he was unhappy because someone offered him more money. We weren’t getting along, he and I, and there was always a dissension. First of all, he wouldn’t stay on the bandstand—I had to humor him.

Mr. Hubert. Well, did he quit or did you fire him?

Mrs. Grant. No, we didn’t fire him. He made arrangements with another night club.

Mr. Hubert. And that was when?

Mrs. Grant. He made arrangements unbeknownst to us, but he gave us notice and he left, I think, the first week of November, 1963.

Mr. Hubert. What about Raymond Jones, do you know him?
