Mr. Senator. All I know, while I can’t say about the average because all I know, he was really deeply disturbed, but I can’t describe an average because there might be another individual of his nature, too, who knows. Who knows the affections of each and every individual?
Mr. Hubert. In any case his reaction was such——
Mr. Senator. It was pretty well—you know, disturbed as I was and as disturbed as I have seen many friends of mine, it was worse with him than it was with the others who I have seen.
Mr. Hubert. That is exactly what I was getting at. So he got hold of this newspaper ad and read it again—is that it—that is, in the coffeeshop?
Mr. Senator. Yes; he looked it over again.
Mr. Hubert. What comment did he make, while reading it or after?
Mr. Senator. While reading it?
Mr. Hubert. I don’t mean his words, you understand, his exact words, but the meaning, the thoughts expressed.
Mr. Senator. Yes; the thoughts. He can’t understand it. It is so penetrated in his mind he can’t understand why somebody would want to do something like this.
Mr. Hubert. The ad had nothing to do with killing the President?
