(Testimony of George Senator Resumed)

Likewise, I take it that you understand, unless I hear to the contrary that you are still under the same oath which you took at the commencement of the testimony on yesterday; is that correct?

Mr. Senator.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, at the end of the session on yesterday we reached the Point where on Sunday, November 24, you had left your apartment or you were leaving your apartment, as I recall it. Your testimony was that Mr. Ruby had already left. I think you fixed, but just for the purpose of continuity at the moment, would you now try to fix the approximate time at which he left?
Mr. Senator.
You mean when I left?
Mr. Hubert.
No ; when he left.
Mr. Senator.
To me, I thought it was somewheres between 10:15 and l0:30. Of course, I found out. hereafter in the courtroom that I was wrong, but this at that time was the approximate figure that I had that he left.
Mr. Hubert.
You told us yesterday that whatever time it was, your thought was that it was approximately three-quarters of an hour after he received the call from Little Lynn?
Mr. Senator.
No. At the time he left--in my courtroom statement there I fixed the time at approximately 10:15 or 10:30. That is where I thought he had left around that time.
Mr. Hubert.
I ask .you now to fix it not in Point of clock time but in point of how many hours or minutes it was, or parts of hours it was, after the long distance call from Little Lynn in which you understood that she asked for $25.
Mr. Senator.
I would have to say it would probably be approximately somewhere, I imagine somewhere between three-quarters to an hour. Now this is about as close as I can think of it.
Mr. Hubert.
I think you base that upon two considerations, at least that you stated to us yesterday. That he was not yet dressed.
Mr. Senator.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
When Little Lynn called?
Mr. Senator.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
And that he got dressed and cleaned up, washed up?
Mr. Senator.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
And then spent some short, relatively short period of time pacing around, as you said?
Mr. Senator.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Before leaving. And that you estimated yesterday I think it was about three-quarters of an hour.
Mr. Senator.
Three-quarters of an hour. I mean this is just an estimation.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, when he left he told you he was taking the dog Sheba down to the club?
Mr. Senator.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
And he made no other comment?
Mr. Senator.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
Did he say what time he was coming back?
Mr. Senator.
No; there was no mention of anything at that time.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, what did you do next? How long did you stay in the apartment?
Mr. Senator.
After he left I'm still sitting around in my shorts yet. I'm not dressed or not washed or anything outside of having a cup of coffee. I had coffee.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you have TV on?
Mr. Senator.
No; I'll tell you, after he left I was reading the Sunday paper.
Mr. Hubert.
And you cut off the TV?
Mr. Senator.
Yes; I didn't have the TV going. I was just reading. I read the paper, and from there I washed, shaved, got dressed, and took a fide downtown, and as I say, this place, the Eatwell----
Mr. Hubert.
How long after Ruby left did you leave?
Mr. Senator.
I would say it was about three-quarters of an hour, I guess, something like that.
Mr. Hubert.
Then you went directly to the Eatwell?
Mr. Senator.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
You used your Volkswagen, I think you said?
