(Testimony of Aubrey Lewis Lee)

Mr. Hubert.
Have you ever worked with him?
Mr. Lewis.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
When?
Mr. Lewis.
You mean what years, or when?
Mr. Hubert.
I have specifically in mind sometime prior to November 26.
Mr. Lewis.
I worked under him nearly 3 years.
Mr. Hubert.
Where was that?
Mr. Lewis.
That was at the main office, 2034 Main. He is the early night manager.
Mr. Hubert.
At the Main Street branch?
Mr. Lewis.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
So that you worked under him at the Main Street branch until about 2 years ago?
Mr. Lewis.
About a year and a half ago.
Mr. Hubert.
Now were you working with him either at the Main Street branch or at the other branch that you mentioned sometime during the fall of 1963?
Mr. Lewis.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
Where was that? Which one?
Mr. Lewis.
That was at the Main Street; 2034 Main.
Mr. Hubert.
How did you come to be working there?
Mr. Lewis.
I was pulled in from my job because they were short downtown. People were on vacation.
Mr. Hubert.
How long a period did you work with Mr. Hamblen then at the Main branch?
Mr. Lewis.
I was down 2 weeks altogether, and he was out the first week. relieved him the first week, and then I relieved this other fellow the second week, and I worked under him the second week I was there.
Mr. Hubert.
So that you worked under Mr. Hamblen at the Main branch during the early night shift for I week?
Mr. Lewis.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
Could you place that week?
Mr. Lewis.
It was in October, I believe. I am not for sure.
Mr. Hubert.
Would that be .a matter of record on this part?
Mr. Lewis.
It is in the paper there. I don't know exactly what date it was.
Mr. Hubert.
I now show you a photostatic copy of a document dated Dallas, Tex., December 4, 1963, addressed to Mr. Wilcox, apparently signed by Aubrey Lee Lewis, which has heretofore been identified as follows: "Exhibit No. 3006 in the deposition of Laurance R. Wilcox at Dallas, Tex., March 31, 1.964, WJL." I have shown you this photostatic copy of this document which I have just described, and I now ask you if that is a photostat of your signature?
Mr. Lewis.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Is this document addressed to Mr. Wilcox and identified as I have stated a moment ago, a correct statement of facts, so far as you know?
Mr. Lewis.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
Now I wish you would give us further details concerning the incident to which reference is made in this Exhibit No. 3006, Wilcox' deposition, with reference to Hamblen's difficulty with a man named Oswald?
Mr. Lewis.
Well, as I said, I was working the early night money order counter, and this party approached me and said he had a money order, and I asked him for his identification, which he didn't have any at that time. And I asked him could he obtain some, and he said he guessed he could if he had to. He left and came back with some identification. I believe it was a little Navy ID release card. And I paid him on that. He gave me quite a bit of trouble.
Mr. Hubert.
Of what nature?
Mr. Lewis.
Oh, he was cursing and telling how lousy everything was.
Mr. Hubert.
Did Mr. Hamblen have any part in that matter?
Mr. Lewis.
I beg your pardon?
Mr. Hubert.
Did Mr. Hamblen have any part in this matter?
Mr. Lewis.
Well, yes. When we have difficulty with anybody, he comes up and helps us.
Mr. Hubert.
Did he come up on this occasion?
Mr. Lewis.
Yes, sir.
