Mrs. Tice. They didn’t look as much like him as the one that Eva or Eileen brought to the house and showed to me. I mean, looked more like him.
Mr. Griffin. Now, Mrs. Tice, I only ask you if you will sign this exhibit with your signature.
(Mrs. Tice signs.)
Mr. Griffin. I want to ask one other question. That is, there was a newspaper report that you received a threat of some sort before you came here. Do you know anything about that?
Mrs. Tice. Do I know anything about it?
Mr. Griffin. Yes; did you receive a threat before coming here?
Mrs. Tice. Well, I don’t know if it was a threat or I don’t know now—I don’t know what you are talking about. Are you talking about when I was barricaded in the house?
Mr. Griffin. No; I don’t know about that. I was just informed by somebody here in this U.S. attorney’s office that one of the daily newspapers here had carried an article that you had been threatened. Do you know anything about that?
Mrs. Tice. They said that I had been threatened, but what the paper said is not what—I got a telephone call, and some man told me on the telephone that it would pay me to keep my mouth shut.
Mr. Griffin. Did you recognize the voice on the telephone?
