Mr. Liebeler.

General WALKER. I would prefer you to question me on which way you want me to discuss this case and I will answer what is necessary.

Mr. Liebeler.

Do you know Warren Reynolds?
General WALKER. I do know Warren Reynolds.

Mr. Liebeler.

When did you meet him?
General WALKER. My first contact with Warren Reynolds was by telephone, I would say sometime in the area of 8 or 10 days after he was shot through the temple. I thought I had the date of that. or the press release, but I didn't seem to bring it with me. But you probably have that date.
It doesn't make much difference. I would say sometime I saw a notice in the paper when it came out to the effect that Warren Reynolds had been shot in the head and a Latin type was seen running away.
I left on a trip and came back to the house, and I was curious about Warren Reynolds and I asked somebody in the house to call and see about Reynolds, and was told to call the hospital.
I found out that day finally after calling out to his place of business, found out he was out walking around that afternoon. I think we found out he had just been released from the hospital that day. I would say that was about 10 days from the time he was fired at.

Mr. Liebeler.

Do you have the date of that?
General WALKER. That was approximately January 23 or January 24, 1964, and within a day or two I had a telephone conversation over there.
I talked to Warren Reynolds finally and he said he wanted to talk to me or said he would talk to me, and asked him the circumstances of what had happened to him.
Within a day or two I would say--I said, "If you want to see me, you can."

And he came to the house and discussed what had happened to him with regard to being shot through the head, how it all happened, and I have been quite interested in his case.

Mr. Liebeler.

Now, am I correct in understanding that you initiated the contact with Mr. Reynolds?
General WALKER. I did.

Mr. Liebeler.

How many times have you seen him?
General WALKER. Sir?

Mr. Liebeler.

When was the first time you actually saw him in person, if you ever did, and I believe that you did.
General WALKER. I don't remember the exact date, but a week after the first telephone conversation, within a week or so after the first telephone conversation, I believe he dropped by the house with his brother.

Mr. Liebeler.

How many times have you seen him in person altogether?
General WALKER. I believe he has been in the house twice.

Mr. Liebeler.

You have also had various telephone conversations with him, isn't that right, General Walker?
General WALKER. Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

In fact, you talked on the telephone with him yesterday noon, didn't you?
General WALKER. Very likely.

Mr. Liebeler.

Do you recall whether you did?
General WALKER. I talked to him yesterday, yes. I don't remember the exact time.

Mr. Liebeler.

Will you tell us the substance, the general substance of your conversation with him over this period that you have been in contact with him.
General WALKER. I was very much interested in his case and why they would have, why there would have been an attempt on his life, since, according to his story, you might say he was the last one to see Oswald in the domestic state after he had killed Police Officer Tippit.
I have had these conversations with him to get all the details I could regarding why he thought he was shot at or who shot at him and what the police doing about it, and how he felt about it.

Mr. Liebeler.

Did he indicate to you the first time that he talked to you that he thought there was some connection between the attack on him and his observation of Oswald?
