Mr. Hubert. He gave some of the dogs away didn’t he?
Mr. Senator. Yes; Jack had close to 10 dogs. He had about 9 or 10 dogs. Don’t forget Sheba had six at one clip.
Mr. Hubert. What was his attitude towards these animals? Was it a normal attitude that people have to dogs?
Mr. Senator. I know people have mentioned it to me before in the past and the quotations that I have heard though I have never heard them from him though I have heard them otherwise like “My family” or “My wife.” I have read these. I am certain everybody else has too or heard it. But he liked dogs. To me this has no meaning. To me it has no meaning when he says this.
Mr. Hubert. Did you hear these comments made by other people concerning Ruby and his dogs prior to the shooting or afterwards?
Mr. Senator. What?
Mr. Hubert. Prior to the shooting or afterwards?
Mr. Senator. Prior I don’t recollect. I don’t say—it had to be prior to. No; it had to be prior.
Mr. Hubert. You have read perhaps a lot about the dogs——
Mr. Senator. Yes.
