Mr. Burleson. That would have been the weekend about the 16th?
Mrs. Grant. That’s right.
Mr. Burleson. And how long did you take it?
Mrs. Grant. Well, there was 1 or 2 days I cut down and then I—about the 21st, which was a Thursday, I had an unusual severe pain and I started all over again.
Mr. Burleson. Taking heavy doses of it?
Mrs. Grant. Well, they are tablets and I called his nurse and she suggested to take them but not as often as I did when I complained it threw me into a trance but it still did, because I am not a pill taker and I guess pills work a little better on me.
Mr. Burleson. Were you taking pills on the day of the 22d of November?
Mrs. Grant. I already had two pills by the time the President was assassinated—these pills are prescribed one every 4 hours.
Mr. Burleson. Do you subscribe to the Dallas Morning News or did you back on November 22?
Mrs. Grant. No, no; but my manager was very sympathetic.
