Mr. Hubert. Did you speak to the lady then?
Mr. Newnam. I didn’t say a word then; no, sir.
Mr. Hubert. What did you do?
Mr. Newnam. She was—I recall one particular statement she made, she says, “My God, what do they want?” And—she sounded very upset. Of course, I couldn’t tell whether she was crying or not, but I would assume she was, and I didn’t say a word to her, and I just handed the phone back to Jack.
Mr. Hubert. Did you hear him say anything to her?
Mr. Newnam. I believe he was trying to calm her down, but I don’t recall any specific conversation.
Mr. Hubert. Do you remember whether that conversation with his sister took place before you went to look at the TV or after, or can you place the time in any way?
Mr. Newnam. This was after—I believe we had made—I had made one trip over there to just check what news there was, and I believe this was after. Now, the exact time—what time—I don’t believe I could place it.
Mr. Hubert. Do you remember whether Ruby was there when the announcement of the President’s death came over the air?
Mr. Newnam. I believe he was.
