Mrs. Whitworth.

That it was?

Mr. Liebeler.

Yes.

Mrs. Whitworth.

No; he didn't tell me.

Mr. Liebeler.

Did he mention guns?

Mrs. Whitworth.

We didn't talk about it. We didn't talk about it--when I told him I didn't have the gunsmith, that he had moved, that he was no longer there and when I told him we no longer had a gunsmith we didn't talk about what he wanted any more.

Mr. Mckenzie.

To the best of your recollection, and that's based on your conversation with Mrs. Hunter, the part that he asked for was a plunger?

Mrs. Whitworth.

Well, to the best of my recollection it was, but I wouldn't say definitely that he asked for a plunger.

Mr. Mckenzie.

Do you recognize that a plunger is a part of a gun?

Mrs. Whitworth.

I wouldn't unless somebody told me that it was.

Mr. Mckenzie.

Well, you say you recognized the part that he asked for as being a part of a gun?

Mrs. Whitworth.

Yes.

Mr. Mckenzie.

He didn't mention to you a gun part at that time, did he, or did he?

Mrs. Whitworth.

Well, he asked in such a way that I knew he was seeking the gun shop and not the furniture store.

Mr. Liebeler.

Was the word "gun" ever used?

Mrs. Whitworth.

Yes; it was, because I told him the gunsmith had moved.

Mr. Mckenzie.

And what did he say then, please, ma'am?

Mrs. Whitworth.

He turned around and he looked at me. He was standing practically in the front or in the middle of the store and he turned and I had furniture all around me dinette suites over on this side and there was living room furniture to this side, and in front of him there was living room furniture and bedroom furniture and he said, "You have furniture?" I said, "Yes."
He said, "I'm going to need some in about 2 weeks," and I said, "All right, I'll be glad to show you some."
He turns and walks out the door that he came in and took whatever he had in his hand back in the car and that's when Mrs. Oswald followed him back in and he got back in the store before she did.

Mr. Mckenzie.

Did you hear them talking together?

Mrs. Whitworth.

I never did hear her utter one word.

Mr. Mckenzie.

Did he say anything to her?

Mrs. Whitworth.

He never said anything to her other than he might have glanced at her and I thought that they were exchanging glances, you know. She didn't utter a word.

Mr. Mckenzie.

And he didn't utter a word to her?

Mrs. Whitworth.

Not to her--but to me.

Mr. Mckenzie.

Now, he said he was going to need some furniture in approximately 2 weeks?

Mrs. Whitworth.

Yes.

Mr. Mckenzie.

At that time did you ask him where he was living?

Mrs. Whitworth.

I asked him if he was living at an apartment and he said, "Yes."

Mr. Mckenzie.

Did he tell you where?

Mrs. Whitworth.

No.

Mr. Mckenzie.

Did he tell you where he was moving to?

Mrs. Whitworth.

No; he hadn't got that place yet.

Mr. Mckenzie.

Did he ask you if you delivered?

Mrs. Whitworth.

No; we didn't get that far along.

Mr. Mckenzie.

I see. He didn't like the piece of furniture that you showed to him, is that it

Mrs. Whitworth.

I probably didn't have what he was looking for. We talked about not having it.

Mr. Mckenzie.

Well, in any event, he didn't seek to buy any of the furniture that you showed him?

Mrs. Whitworth.

No.
