Mr. Specter. Did you respond?
Mr. Wall. Yes; I wrote him back and told him what we were doing and how we were doing and I hoped he was well.
Mr. Specter. How many times did you write to him?
Mr. Wall. Maybe three or four times. I don’t know. I do remember another thing we discussed while he was in the jail. He said he was writing—I remember two things—he was writing down his memoirs and wanted to do it into a story form and would I be interested in doing it for him. I told him I would see. And the other thing he mentioned to me is he had received a lot of telegrams and letters from all over the country saying he was correct in doing what he did, or he was wrong in doing what he did, or whatever it was. He was getting so many in he had no way of writing them back. He wanted to thank each and every one for writing to him and wanted to know if I would correspond with them on behalf of him and that is when I said, “I would rather not get involved in any way and you can understand why.” And he said, “Yes, I do.”
Mr. Specter. Have you had any other contacts at all with Jack Ruby after November 24, 1963?
Mr. Wall. Only through corresponding letters.
Mr. Specter. You have now mentioned all of the contacts you have had with him?
Mr. Wall. Yes, sir.
Mr. Specter. Going back to November 21——
Mr. Wall. I have one. I’m sorry. I do have one. As I said, Phil Burleson is Joe’s and my attorney and, therefore, I would go see Phil every once in awhile just to give Jack a message of hello, that we are thinking of him, and to see how he was. We were all right and everything. I did ask Phil to do this for me. Every once in awhile I would do it.
