Mr. Griffin. What was the provocation for his hitting the fellow at the club?
Mr. Senator. I think this chap here was getting a little loud. I don’t remember what the incident was. I think he was making a scene there of some nature.
Mr. Hubert. Those are the only two occasions that you yourself knew about from having observed them yourself?
Mr. Senator. Oh, I have seen him push somebody out without hitting him.
Mr. Hubert. Have you seen that often?
Mr. Senator. No, I don’t say often. I have seen it happen. And when it has happened, he happened to hold down certain people.
Mr. Hubert. Did you ever hear him threaten anybody?
Mr. Senator. No.
Mr. Hubert. Like throwing them down the stairs?
Mr. Senator. I have heard somebody talk about that. Who did I hear? Oh yes, I’ll tell you where that was quoted. When I was on the witness stand and Mr. Alexander asked me that.
