Mr. Senator. Is it possible to forget?

Mr. Hubert. Why yes, of course, it is.

Mr. Senator. Mind you this is 5 months.

Mr. Hubert. But it is my duty to explore the possibilities.

Mr. Senator. I know that. If I could think and help you out I would be happy to, if I knew. I just can’t place, place to place, where I have been. I may have been out having a beer or I may have been out chewing the fat with some friend of mine. I just don’t remember what I was doing that day.

Mr. Hubert. It may be that if you think about it a bit more you can help us a little later on.

Mr. Senator. I could if I wanted to, I could have made up a fictitious story to you and say that I sat in the bar for 3 hours or I was out with some girl or something like that. He is writing all this down. But I am telling you the truth.

Mr. Hubert. I don’t want you to tell us something that is fictitious. If it is a fact that you do not remember, then that is the fact and that is all we want to know. I think that sometimes one’s memory is refreshed, as it were, by events. If you can’t remember it now, we will come back to it a little later and see if you can recollect what happened in this period of about 6 hours on that Saturday afternoon.

Mr. Griffin. Mr. Hubert, unless you want to pursue this further, let me ask him a question.

Mr. Hubert. All right, go ahead.
