Mrs. Grant. Well, wait a minute, I had it on, it seems, most all of the time. I think that I went into shock or something, but I had it on, I think. Even if I didn’t have it loud, I had it on. A lot of times I have the picture on and the voice real low.
Mr. Griffin. Now, think back to this particular day after Pauline called you. Did you go about your housework, or did you watch television?
Mrs. Grant. Well, if I remember, I had just been out of the hospital 9 days, and I wasn’t doing anything outside of trying to prepare myself some food if my friends downstairs didn’t bring me something up. Most days she saw that I had a hot biscuit every day. It was something else, whether it was dinner or breakfast, or if she thought I wanted something.
Mr. Griffin. Try to think about what you did.
Mrs. Grant. Now, let me ask you something. Do you want me to go back until the time I got up?
Mr. Griffin. I simply want you to tell me everything after you hung up the telephone with Pauline. Did you sit in front of your television set until you next heard from somebody else, or did you do your housework, or what did you do?
Mrs. Grant. This is what it seems to me. We talked about 5 or 6 minutes, and I kept on talking, and I may be confused about this minute, because I just couldn’t accept it, and it threw me off guard, and she said, “I will call you back.”
But we talked, and it seems to me he (meaning TV) kept talking about different things, and I may be wrong, but it seems to me a Federal man or security man—truthfully, I had not heard anything about the Governor. I don’t remember now.
Mr. Griffin. By “he,” you mean the person on television?
Mrs. Grant. On channel 8. At the time, he wore glasses, it seems, and had black hair.
