Mr. Hubert. Now, I want to show you a report of an interview of you by FBI Agent Joe Abernathy, dated November 26, 1963, which I have marked for identification on the right-hand margin as follows: “Dallas, Texas, June 27, 1964, Exhibit No. 1 in the deposition of Robert Norton,” and I have signed my name below it. It consists of about a third of one page. I would like you to read that and tell me afterwards whether or not you recollect the interview and whether that’s a fair report of that interview.
Mr. Norton (read instrument referred to). This is what I said and I also called Tuesday and reported to the FBI the fact that I had seen him at 12 o’clock and I asked him if they wanted me to come down and the man on the phone said I could just give him a statement over the phone. This was right after the President was buried.
Mr. Hubert. In other words, this report——
Mr. Norton. This is the second report that I made. I phoned in.
Mr. Hubert. Well, did you ever have a person-to-person interview?
Mr. Norton. Yes; this gentleman here was in the club.
Mr. Hubert. That was on Tuesday, November 26, and you had telephoned the information to the FBI previous to that?
Mr. Norton. Yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert. And then did they come out on the same day and interview you?
Mr. Norton. No; it was later. I wasn’t personally interviewed until later. I don’t remember just how long but it was sometime after I phoned in.
