6/.1e3 Dear, thoughtful Jae, 1 2 /1

You wont to all that trouble and expense just to eake thiegn easier for me. ow very eoed of you!

'illy it does not -fork that way for several reasons. First of all, litenine to the seolean word takes ever ao =ugh acne) teen that readenge Second, I've had a !leering defect for YOUIT. • not bUd on the phorte but tlenpite two hearing aids the trebles are my he ring problem. Women'e voices. I can't take the tine to listen to tepee now became') I have no much les- tine. had what I'm eorry you did not know, I can't take any tie for the ittl: cases. I am not an expert in it and I don't have enough tine for to work I should be doing.

I read you chatty, long p.o as soon an I got the mail, then put the tape an and was interrupted five times while lietenong to it, four elates by the phone and once by our medical ineurenee representative.

Getting burned by selfeseekere and the aefl-important is not at all unusual. Nor is being deceive and misled and lied to. There are all kinds of people in all wales of life and we have our share. Tell get to this in abbreviated form soon.

Hy own belief is that nothing nee and significant is likely to surface on the RIX cane except possibly through examination of the stuff in Sacramento and plenty of people are doing that. I think if you try to develop anything new it will lead to frustration and futility. I don't know t e condition of your files bub if you want them to be of use to others you might spend time organizing them. I don't know wht Phil "olanaten hese': answered you but he haft a fll-tine teachiee job, has his archive to work es& on and I think he in exiting a book on the King cane. Le didn't tell ma this but I think I heard it.

You regard some people as dependable and I think they are not. Of thane I mention only Morrow. He is a fraud. ae makes it all up, particularly "Getrayal." I knew he made it all up uhen I read the necond extrtereaph. I lied it aside when I finished the second chapter.

He in, I uneerstand, a convicred forger. When Letrayal wan out I agreed to debate him on a radio station, by phone. He'd agreed and when he lammed he was to have on on the lethal- phone he onaceiled. There is so much of this And most people are not able to detect it.

the aee those to WhOS.1 El2=f0Ett anyone else i* ramie Idnd of agent. Take Penn Jones, for example. When I saved Jim Garrison for a terrible mistake that would have been very hurtful, Penn imediately started calling me a CIe ngent. It is is irresponnibles who elinia to their need for agents. These kind do their work. They don't need others and don

.) t have to do it for them:wives. Alas, it is thin way.

Penn was himself pretty wild abd with the bee of intentions lennehlaunehed many fictlonn as fact. I've not hoard from hin in yearn. Last I heard he had moved and Jaen t interested any more. eiving with a younger team. No euention in py mina about his intentions but he was parmoid when I first net him and he got wore e.

In the end hay's situation may be better than it was becunee with his earlier experience ho should be more valuable in management as he leerns more about management. I hope so for both of you!

lent of the critics are after easy other much of the thee. I try to stay out of that and succeed to a ierge extent. 'brat a great time-taker and how little comes of any of it that is in any wet useful. For the most part I get along well 4th meet.

MOs; of the people help I don't agree eitle I don't try to tell them 'hat to aoy or todiove unleao they aok. i consider' that POLL naoet me surrogate for the epople and I gry to meet that responsibility. Some are petty, some very wrong, s000 think nobody cane knows anythig or understands anything and most of therm merely mislead, misinform and confuse. Thin was true of all the TV soocials I caw

cozoot ono, oronenable t'oubt that wan in Abe E cable. If you've heard of the 'oho e.Davis book, Mafia Kingfish, that is an example of how some of those oharoctOrs aro and not. I Ilie701 ei thick file ropr000nting a conaidorable amount of tioo I spont answering his inquirion. Because 4 could not do the searching for leei I got a senior from a local college and she worked for him a conadiera le part of the time she couli ge: for a semester. I loofa no idea what she sent hin but it was quite a eio. So, hin honk in o:;. and he hasn't sent me a copy. I don t caoe that

much and I don't got oveeythiug that cone out beoauzo most of it is a oaste of tima of ohioh I have so litole. But what d.nd of person is he if he behavos this way?

Jul] an exumolo bocauoo you go into suoh things. There are other examples but no need for them. You have to expect this and forget it.

X did the sacks thing for the Anderson show and they gave me credit, i Understand. They promised me a caesettte. I've reminded thou twice and they haven't sent, it. I won't look at it. I oauo Ot for archival purp0000 only. oeeen, they aro not tho only ones.

Sodon't lot things get to you. It is par so live with it andpay no attention to it. Ignore it and them to the degree you can.

I'm oorry I can't take time for the RA case of no matter how pleasant they are for long uhatty correspondence. I can't begin to keep up Pild there is an much that hoe accumulated. I an seeing better to type, not that the typing will be better. Pedeose escuse oy not correcting the typose. If you do as you read it will work out and you'll understand. It is now 4 p,m., I've been up 12 bourn and uoepo for r Aim,' the morring papers end py walking therapy I've been able to do nothing that I'd planned today. ThaekB for your good oiohon. I go back to the hospital for the next check 1/12. I ;a hoping they than sake this stitch(es) out and peeecribo :leo glasses! kading this-type strains me too much on the poorer eye and it in fizzy in the corrected aye, nay ho for a ohile yet from what °thee, tell me.

Fennterwald io not an agent, by the wry. I know him well and I've seen copies in fact have copies of some of the CIA and FBI spying on him. This doe not motto that on many thin; o do not agxoe with him foo I don't. I've novor joined any of his orgnnioations. I also don't subscribe to any of the newslett re. A couple are sent me free. I'm not interested in gossip and too many of those ixeelo axe utterly loot anO doo't have the slighteot idea of hat ':hey are toleiole obout. have nothing; against any of those putting them out abd rather like most but what they turn out does not lee:ex-at me and I don't want any one to think I WU f ovoring any others over them. (oota closo but I want to say that wa are all indebted to Tee for the recording: he has done. If he hadn't done it most of it would never have been done. I think he just appoared yeoterOoy or the day before with Liorrison at a press conference on Jim's bock. Boat to you, have a good heliday ..nu a fine yGar and to try to rodeo*, you involvement in so many thing: that trouble you, as they should, which in why you ought try todistance yourself as much as you can,

HT DEAREST AND PRECIOUS HAROLD, I HAD TO RE-OPEN THE ENVELOPE AND TAKE OUT THE FIRST CASSETTE LETTER, IT WAS AN OLD OLD WEBCOR CASSETTE AND I WAS ABLE TO GET A FEW NEW ONES, SO I RE-DID IT ON THE NEW CASSETTE FOR YOU AND PUT IT BACK IN THE SAME ENVELOPE. I WANTED TO RE-DUE THE WHOLE PACKAGING, BUT I HAD ALREADY PUT TWO STAMPS ON THIS ENVELOPE AND SINCE MOVING TO HAWAII, I HAVE LEARNED VERY FAST THAT 50 CENTS IS 50 CENTS I CAN NO LONGER AFFORD TO WASTE. I LIKE TO SEND MY CORRESPONDENCE OUT NEATLY DONE AND PACKAGED NICELY, NOT THUS PACKAGING TAPE WHICH WAS ALL I HAD THE OTHER DAY, BUT I PROMISE YOU A RETURN DONE IN A MUCH NICER WAY MORE PLEASANT LOOKING TO YOU AS SOON AS I HEAR FROM YOU AFTER YOU LISTEN TO NY CASSETTE LETTER.

GOD HAS BLESSED YOU, I CAN SEE THAT AND I PRAY FOR YOU AND YOUR LIL EVERYDAY HE CON-TINUES TO DO SO.

THIS IS A P.S. I DIDN'HAVE ROOM FOR ON THE TAPE, BUT I THOUGHT YOU WOULD ENJOY HEARING, IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYONE I HAVE KNOWN IN THIS ENDEAVOR HAS BEEN TALKED ABOUT AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER OF BEING AN AGENT OR A TOOL OF THE CIA, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF ME AND THEE AND LILLIAN C. AND YOU KNOW THE OLD SAYING, "EVERYONE IS CRAZY EXCEPT ME AND THEE, AND I AM BEGINNING TO WONDER ABOUT THEE, WELL, IT GOES A LITTLE DIFFERENT THE WAY I SAY IT, IT SEEMS AS THOUGH EVERYONE EXCEPT ME AND THEE HAS BEEN TALKED ABOUT BY SOMEONE OR ANOTHER AS BEING AN AGENT. I AM NOT NAIVE ENOUGH TO BELIEVE THAT THEY DON"T, HOWEVER, THEIR JOB OF DISCREDITING REACHERS' AND INVESTI-GATORS' HAS BEEN MADE MUCH SIMPLIER BY THE RESEARCHERS' DOING THEIR JOB FOR THEM. ALL THE AGENCY HAS TO KNOW IS HOW TO PLANT THE RUMORS AND THEY CERTAINLY KNOW HOW TO DO THAT AND THE RESEARCHERS DO THE REST. WHAT I THINK IS SO IRONIC IS THAT HERE ARE TWO PEOPLE, YOU AND I THAT HAVE HAD OBVIOUSLY WORKED FOR THE GOVERNMENT FOR MANY YEARS AND ONE WOULD THINK THAT WE WOULD CERTAINLY "QUALIFY" FOR BEING IN THE "SUSPECT" CATEGORY AND YET I HAVE NEVER HEARD ANYONE, NOT EVEN JONN C. WHO "SUSPECTS" EVERYONE WHO HAS BEEN INVOLVED SINVE NOV. 22, 1963 UNTIL TODAY WITH VERY FEW PEOPLE HE EXCLUDES FROM THAT LIST, YOU AND I, LILLIAN CASTELLANO. FLOYD NELSON, AND. LATELY EVEN THOUGH HE LIVES WITH FLOYD HE IS BEGINNING TO QUESTION, FLOYD WORKS AS A JANITOR AT THE VA HOSPITAL, NEED I SAY MORE JIM GARRISON, PENN JONES, JR., AND THERE ARE A FEW MORE NAMES, NOT MANY, BUT A FEW. JONN IS HAVING A FIT, AS I EXPLAIN IN MY CASSETTE LETTER BECAUSE HE HAS NO ACCESS TO WHAT BUD HAS IN THE A.A.R.C. AND THIS IS JONN NOW SPEAKING TO ME" JAN, HOW CAN YOU BE SO BLIND ABOUT FENSTERWALD? HE WAS JAMES McCORD'S ATTORNEY DURING THE WATERGATE HEARINGS, YOU KNOW McCORD IS CIA AND YOU KNOW HOW THE CIA SENT IN THEIR OWN LAWYER'S FOR CLAY SHAW TO DESTROY GARRISON'S INVESTI-GATION." I MADE A VALIENT EFFORT TO REPLY, "BUT JONN", HE INTERRUPTS WHAT I WAS TRYING TO TELL HIM, HE ALWAYS DOES THAT YOU KNOW, "BUTJONN, NOTHING, YOU KNOW DAMN WELL WHAT FENSTERWLD IS, DON'T GIVE ME ANY BUTS OR ANDS ABOUT I KNOW YOU ARE NOT THAT NAIVE:"' JONN IS SO ADAMENT ABOUT WHAT HE BELIEVES AND WHAT HE THINKS HE KNOWS, HE DOESN'T EVER QUESTION HIS INTELLECT ON ANYTHING I HAVE EVER HEARD HIM TALK TO ME ABOUT AND THAT HAS BEEN YEARS WORTH, AND EVEN THOUGH HE HAS AT TIMES DROPPED HIS SUPERIOR SHIELD AND TOLD ME HOW BRILLIENT AND SMART I AM, SO HE SAYS, I AM JUNIOR TO HIM NOT ONLY IN YEARS WHICH SHOULD HAVE NO BEARING ON ANYTHING, BUT I AM ALSO JR. TO HIM IN EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE. I ACCEPT THE JUNIOR PART IN YEARS AS THAT IS TRUE AS WELL AS EXPERIENCE, BUT BY ONLY A FEW YEARS, HE BEGAN IN 1968, I SPENT SEVEN YEARS, WASTED YEARS I HAVE REGRETTED NOW SINCE 1975, IN SHOCK AND UTTER DISBELIEF WHEN I SAW THE ZAP FILM FOR THE FIRST TIME AND I WOKE UP. HOWEVER, HAROLD, I DO NOT ACCEPT A JUNIOR POSITION IN KNOWLWDGE TO JONN AND NEVER WILL, I HOVE A LIBRARY OF BOOKS BAR NONE, THAT I SOUGHT OUT FROM COAST TO COAST OVER THE YEARS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE CONTERVERSIES ON ALL THREE ASSASSINATIONS, NONE OF WHICH CAME FROM LILLIAN'S LIBRARY, SHE HAD ONLY A FEW BOOKS AND THE WARREN VOLUMNS THAT SHE WORKED DILIGENTLY WITH AND FLOYD KEPT THOSE AND THEN SENT THEM ON TO DR. MEIANSON IN 1984. I HAVE MY OWN SET OF THE WARREN VOLUMNS AND MY OWN

LIBRARY WHICH IS FILLED TO CAPACITY AND I CONTINUE TO TRY AND MAINTAIN IT, WHICH AS YOU KNOW IS EXPENSIVE BUT MOST IMPORTANT IF ONE WANTS TO WORK IN THIS FIELD, IT IS REALLY A NECCISITY TO CONTINUE DOING, EVERY ANNIVERSARY THERE ARE NEW AUTHORS THAT POP OUT FROM NOWHERE aS WELL AS RESEARCHERS AND INVESTIGATORS THAT WE ALL KNOW COMING OUT WITH NEW MATERIALS, IT IS AN ENDLESS TASK TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH IT ALL, BUT I FEEL IN ORDER TO BE OBJECTIVE, I MUST CONTINUE TO READ WHAT IS PUBLISHED. THAT IS SO EXPENSIVE FOR ME NOW THAT RAY HAS MOVED INTO MANAGEMENT DUE TO HIS BACK SURGERY, HE SUSTAINED A 53% PERMANENT INJURY TO HIS BACK AND CAN NO LONGER WORK AS A AIRCRAFT MECHANIC AND AS SUCH HE IS PAID NO OVERTIME, THERE ARE NO AUTOMATIC UNION INCREASES IN EARNINGS LIKE BEFORE SO HE IS MAKING HIS WAY UP THE ORGANIZATION, SO TO SPEAK. EVENTUALLY, SOON I HOPE HE WILL BE OFFERRED A HIGHER POSITION IN MANAGEMENT WITH A HIGHER SALARY TO GO ALONG WITH IT, WE NEED IT JUST TO FINANCE THE BOOKS I BUY. I DON'T HAVE EVERY SINGLE BOOK EVER WRITTEN ON JFK, MLK, & RFK, BUT HAY WOULD TELL YOU I DO AS FAR AS HE'S CONCERNED. FOR THE PAST 14 YEARS SINCE I GOT INTO THIS WORK, EVERYTHING ELSE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MY TWO BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN HAVE HAD TO TAKE A BACK SEAT TO WHAT PENN AND LILLIAN SAID I WAS MEANT TO DO FOR MY LIFE'S WORK, TO DEVOTE MY ENERGIES AND RESOURCES TO SEEING THAT THE TRUTH BE GIVEN TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. I KNOW THAT YOU REALIZE THAT IS WHAT I HAVE DONE OVER THE YEARS IN ADDITION TO SEEING THAT MY BELOVED LILLIAN'S YEARS OF WORK AND RESEARCH WERE MADE AVAILABLE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. I THOUGHT I HAD ACCOMPLISHED THAT WITH THE CASTELLANO FILE AT THE UNIVERSITY, BUT I KNOW FIND THERE IS MUCH MORE TO DO IN HONOR OF HER WORK AND HER LIFE"S WORK. THAT, I FEEL IS A SACRED TRUST I MUST COMPLETE. WITH THE SOLE EXCEPTION OF YOURSELF, PENN, BOB CUTLER AND JONN, NO AUTHOR OF ANY IMPORTANCE HAS EVER SENT ME ANYTHING WITHOUT MY PAYING FOR IT. I SHOULD INCLUDE TED GANDOLFO AND MAE BRUSSEL WHO WERE ALWAYS VERY GENEROUS WITH ME AND I WITH THEM AS WELL. A GREAT DEAL OF WHAT I HEAR IS IN TED'S NEW BOOK THAT HE IS SELLING FOR 22.00, I HAD OBTAINED FROM THROUGH REP. GONZALES OFFICE THROUGH THE GOOD AUSPICES OF HIS ASSISTANT GAIL BEAGLE. RULES COMMITTEE HEARINGS, ETC, THAT I HAD COPIED AND SENT TO TED. I AM, AS ANY-ONE WHO KNOWS ME CAN TELL YOU, AN ALMOST CONSTANT READER, I DEVOUR EVERY BOOK I BUY, READING HAS ALWAYS BEEN A GREAT SOURCE OF RELAXATION FOR ME, I WAS AN ASTHMATIC FOR THE 17 YEARS I LIVED AT HOME, AND DURING MY NIGHTLY ASTHMA ATTACKS THE MEDICATION WOULD KEEP ME AWAKE AND READING AT A VERY YOUNG AGE WAS AND REMAINS VERY GOOD THEARPY FOR ME. I HAVE BEEN FAR TOO BUSY READING WHAT OTHERS WRITE, THAT I HAVE NEVER FOUND TIME TO WRITE A BOOK OF MY OWN, CONSEQUENTLY I AM NOT ON ANYONE'S MAILING LIST TO RECEIVE A COPY OF THEIR FORTHCOMING BOOK. I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT VINCENT BUGOLSI HAS GIVEN ME AUTOGRAPHED COPIES OF HIS BOOKS, WHICH HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE WORK I AM INVOLVED IN, BUT I APPRECIATE HIS KINDNESS NONETHELESS AS I DO YOURS AND THE ABOVE PEOPLE I MENTIONED. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO SECURE WITH MONEY OR THROUGH ANYONE WHO COULD HELP ME, JIM GARRISON"S NEW BOOK "ON THE TRAIL OF THE ASSASSINS", DAVID LIFTON"S, NEW "BEST EVIDENCE", DENNIS EFFLE, A GOOD FRIEND OF DAVID"S SAID THE FIRST EDITION HAS ALREADY SOLD OUT, THAT MUST HAVE BEEN A VERY FAST SALE, BECAUSE I HAD CHECKED WITH PICKWICK AND WALDENS IN VENTURA, THE SATURDAY BEFORE I LEFT FOR HAWAII AND THEY DID NOT HAVE THE FIRST EDITION IN AS OF THAT DATE AND WHEN I ARRIVED IN HAWAII I CALLED A LOCAL BOOKSTORE HERE AND THEY DIDN'T HAVE IT YET. I KNOW DAVID AND HE DROVE TO NORWALK TO SEE ME AND BROUGHT ME AN AUTOGRAPHED EDITION OF HIS "BEST EVIDENCE" IN HARDCOVER. HE WAS DUE TO ARRIVE IN LOS ANGELES AT APPROXIMATELY THE SAME TIME I ARRIVED IN HAWAII, OCTOBER 30TH, ALTHOUGH I THINK HIS ARRIVAL IN LOS ANGELES WAS DELAYED DUE TO SOME OF THE PROGRAMS HE WAS ON IN NEW YORK. I DID GET ADVANCE NOTICE ON ROBERT MORROW'S "THE SENATOR MUST DIE", MILE] THE 4;22.96 TO THE ROUNDTABLE PUBLISHING CO AND IT JUST ARRIVED THE OTHER DAY, I MUST WRITE AND THANK JACK KIMBROUGH FOR SENDING ME THE ADVANCE FLYERHS ON THAT BOOK. THERE ARE STILL SEVERAL NOT YET AVAILABLE, DAVID BELIN'S "FINAL CONCLUSION", THE TITLE ALONE WOULD CERTAINLY MAKE THIS BOOK NOT A MUST HAVE ONE FOR ANY OF US WHO KNOW HIS PAST DEEDS AND HISTORY, BUT ONE NEVER KNOWS FOR SURE UNLESS THEY ACTUALLY

READ FOR THEMSELVES WHAT THE AUTHOR HAS WRITTEN, YOU CAN SEE THAT I AM EXTREMELY CAREFUL IN MY RESEARCH BRFORE I STATE SOMETHING IN THE GKG, EOC OR IN PRIOR TIMES, THE CONTINUING INQUIRY. HOWEVER, IT WOULD APPEAR I WAS NOT THOROUGH ENOUGH WHEN I STATED PUBLICLY AT A PRESS CONFERENCE LA ST JUNE THAT EUGENE THANE CEASAR WAS IN MY OPINION AND THAT OF OT HERS IN THE POSITION TO HAVE FIRED THE FATAL SHOTS THAT TOOK THE LIFE OF ROBERT KENNEDY, HE HAD THE MEANS, THE METHOD, AND CERTAINLY EVEN PUBLICLY HAD STATED HIS MOTIVE FOR WANTING BOTH PRESIDENT KENNEDY AND ROBERT KENNEDY KILLED, ALTHOUGH I DID QUALIFY THAT STATEMENT WITH THE KNOWLEDGE I THOUGHT TO BE CORRECT THAT CEASAR MAY HAVE FIRED THE SHOTS THAT MURDERED SENATOR KENNEDY, HE WAS NOT THE ONE WHO ORDERED THE ASSASSINATION, THAT CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE WAS CERTAINLY INVOLVED IN PROCESS OF ELIMINATION BOTH SENATOR ROBERT KENNEDY A S WELL A S F REST DENT KENNEDY'S A SSA SSI NATI ON . NOW HERE COMES ROBERT MORROW, WHOSE HARDCOVER AND PAPERBACK EDITIONS I HAD BOUGHT AND READ OF "BETRAYL" , ( NEITHER OF WHICH JONN HAD READ AND WANTED ME TO MAIL HIM BOTH THE HARDCOVER AND PAPERBACK, SO HE COULD SEE WHAT MORROW HAD WRITTEN TEN YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS READING THEM) . I DIDN'T SEND THE ONLY COPIES I HAD TO JONN FOR ONE SIMPLE REASON, IN MY MANY EXPERIENCES WIT H JONN IN THE PA ST OF HANDING OVER TO HIM THINGS THAT HE HAS NOT SEEN NOR PURCHASED OR ACQUIRED ON HIS OWN, ONLY ONCE HAS HE EVER RETURNED IT TO ME. EVERYTHING ELSE, HE CHOOSES TO KEEP FOR HIMSELF AND HIS WORK AND PROMISES ME TIME A ND TIME AGAIN HE WI LL GET SUC H A ND SUCH IN THE MAIL TO ME, BUT NOTHING EVER COMES. BUT BACK TO MORROW, WHO JONN HAS ALREADY WRITTEN OFF AS A CIA PLANT, HE VERY WELL MAY BE, HE MAKES NO SECRET OF HIS ASSOCIATION WITH CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE, AND MORROW BRINGS IN A WHOLE NEW ELEMENT HE SAYS AND BACKS IT UP WITH DOCUMENTED PROOF THAT THE SHAH OF IRAN AND THE SAVAK SECRET POLICE IN CONCERT WITH CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE, THE FBI , ETC , ETC , ORDERED THE PRESI DENT" S A SSA SSI NATI ON AND BOBBY'S A S WELL. THIS WA S SOMETHING HE WAS TOTALLY UNAWARE OF TEN YEARS AGO WHEN HE WROTE "BETRAYL" AND ONLY LEARNED OF THIS ACCIDENTALLY (Li HI LE INVESTI-GATING THE ROLE OF ORGANIZED CRIME IN THE CUBA. N EXILE MOVEMENT. IN THE AUTHOR'S NOTE, MORROW EXPLAINS THAT "I N ADDITION TO THE INTERVIEWS AND EXHIBITS PUBLISHED IN THIS DOCUMENT, THERE ARE SEVERAL THOUSAND PAGES OF PERTI ENT DATA AVAILABLE TO THE READER, THAT COULD NOT BE PUBLISHED IN THIS BOOK DUE TO THE SHEER VOLUMNE IT WOULD ENCOMPASS. THIS DATA HAS BEEN MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE KIND AUSPICES OF THE A .A R • C " ADDRESS, ETC AND THEY WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE FOR ANYONE TO REVIEW BY MAKING AN APPOINTMENT AT THE CENTER'S OFFICES AFTER NOV 30, 1988. HAROLD, I AM TYPING THIS TINY? P • S. TO YOU 3000 MILES AWAY FROM WHERE JONN C. IS AND I SWEAR, I CAN HEAR HIM SCREAMING AT ME NOW FOR EVEN TYPING THIS, I CAN TELL YOU EXACTLY WHAT HE IS SAYING, "G D IT JAN, I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU WOULD EVEN CONSIDER FOR A MINUTE THAT MOR-RTM-HA S HIS HEAD ON RIGHT, IF I HAVE TOLD YOU ONCE, I HAVE TOLD YOU A MILLION TIMES WHERE FENSTERWALD IS COMING FROM INCLUDING HIS A .A R C . AND NOW MORROW " AND ON AND ON HE GOES NEVER STOPPING TO READ WHAT MORROW HAS SAID, SINCE MORROW DOESN'T AGREE PRECISELY WITH JONN THEN MORROW IS COMPLETELY "WALKED OUT OF HIS MIND", ONE OF JONN'S FAVORITE EXPRESSIONS OF ANYONE WHO DOES NOT AGREE WITH JONN'S SENARIO OF EVENTS LEADING UP TO AND INCLUDING THE ASSASSINATION. AND " SENA RI 0" IS EXACTLY THE RIGHT WORD FOR JONN'S BOOK, MUCH OF WHAT HE HAS TAKEN FROM LILLIAN'S WORK AND OTHERS AS WELL:A S HIS AND TURNER'S WOULD STRONGLY SUGGEST HIS "SENARIO" TO BE AS WE HAVE BELIEVED AS WELL TO BE CORRECT, HOWEVER , AND THAT'S A BIG HOWEVER, JONN NOR BILL COULD EVER BACK UP THEIR SENARIO WITH ACTUAL PROVABLE FACTS IN A COURT OF LAW, CONTRARY TO WHAT JONN WOULD HAVE US BELIEVE. THIS I S WHY IRA WEINER WHO HAS ALL OF THIS AND NOW MUCH MORE IF YOU WILL INDULGE ME HERE HAS MADE NO MOVE TO INDICT CEASAR FOR THE MURDER OF ROBERT KENNEDY. IRA IS NO FOOL, HE IS NOT ABOUT TO INDICT A MAN BASED ON WHAT JONN HAS GIVEN HIM AS WELL AS JACK KIMBROUGH ALONG WITH ALL THE RECENT LA PD DISCLOSURES UNTIL AND IF HE CAN SECURE AN INDICTMENT FROM THE GRA ND JURY. HE IS NOT A MAN TO CHASE AFTER THEORIES OR SENA RI 0"S, HE WANTS FACTS, HARD COLD EVIDENCE BEFORE HE WILL PLACE HIS CAREER ON THE LINE BY INDICITING A MAN THAT HE CANNOT GET A CONVICTION ON.

4 IT IS NOT FOR ME TO SAY UNTIL I ACTUALLY COMPLETELY READ MORROW'S BOOK AND EITHER REVIEW THE DOCUMENTS MYSELF AT THE A.A.R.C. OR FIND SOMEONE WHO HAS DONE SO, TO REFUTE WHAT MORROW SAYS. FROM THE SMALL AMOUNT THAT I HAVE GARNERED THUS FAR, IT WOULD APPEAR AT FIRST GLANCE THAT MORROW IS GIVING US THE TRUTH, NOT AS HE SEES IT, NOT AS A THEORY OR A SENARIO, BUT WITH FACTS THAT ARE EASILY VERIFIED IF ONE TAKES THE EFFORT AND TIME TO SO, WHICH I INTEND TO DO AS SOON AS I AM SETTLED HERE AND CAN TAKE THE TIME NECESSARY TO DO SO. IF MORROW IS RIGHT AND THERE ARE STRONG INDI-CATIONS HE IS, THEN INDEED THOSE OF US THAT HAVE BELIEVED AND SAID SO FOR YEARS THAT CEASAR WAS THE MAN WHO FIRED AND MURDERED ROBERT KENNEDY HAVE CAUSED AN INNOCENT MAN TO SUFFER FOR OVER TWENTY YEARS. GOD HELP US IF WE HAVE BEEN WRONG ALL THESE YEARS AND MORROW IS RIGHT, THERE IS NO WAY TO RIGHT SUCH A WRONG, THE ONLY THING I CAN SAY IS THAT EVERYTHING ANY OF US COULD LAY THEIR HANDS ON, ALL LED TO THE CONCLUSION THAT CEASAR SHOT BOBBY, BUT I AM BEGINNING TO LEARN A MOST PAINFUL WAY, THAT LEADS DO NOT NECESSARILY IN ALL CASES LEAD TO THE TRUTH. THERE ARE NO EXCUSES IF WE HAVE BEEN WRONG, OTHER THAN TO SAY THAT NONE OF US WERE PRIVILEDGED TO THE INFORMATION THAT MORROW WAS ABLE TO UNCOVER. HE CERTAINLY WAS IN A BETTER POSITION TO FIND OUT THE FACTS, IF INDEED THEY ARE TRUE THAN ANYONE I KNOW. MORROW GIVES US A GREAT DEAL TO GO ON WITH FACTS TO BACK UP WHAT HE SAYS, ALBEIT THE ACTUAL ASSASSIN FLED THE COUNTRY AFTER THE ASSASSINATION AND MORROW SAYS HE DOESN'T KNOW WHERE HE IS, BUT THE MEN BEHIND THE GUNS HE NAMES ALL THE WAY UP TO RICHARD HE'JV1S, RICHARD NIXON, ETC, ETC AND MORROW'S BOOK, IF TRUE, LEAVES THEM ALL OPEN FOR IMMEDIATE PROSECUTION FOR THEIR COMPLICITY IN THE ASSASSINATIONS OF BOTH PRESIDENT KENNEDY AND SENATOR ROBERT KENNEDY. I WRITE THIS WITH A LITTLE GRIN HAROLD, IN SAYING THAT IF YOU HAVENHT YET READ MORROW:S BOOK, I THINK I MIGHT HAVE PEAKED YOUR INTEREST IN DOING SO, OR DUE TO YOUR EYE PROBLEMS HAVE SOMEONE READ IT TO YOU. MY LORD, I SOUND LI4E MORROW'S PUBLICST, WITH MY CRITIA OF THIS BOOK THAT I HAVE NOT THROUGHLY READ MYSELF, I AM ENTICING MYSELF TO FINISH THIS LETTER AND BEGIN READING IT FROM BEGINNING TO END, EVEN THOUGH MORROW COULD BE A PLANT, IT'S DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE THE CIA WOULD LEAVE SO MANY OF THEIR OWN OUT TO DRY, I REALIZE THEY LEFT McCORD TO FEND FOR HIMSELF AND THEY MAY HAVE DONE THE SAME WITH CEASAR, BUT MORROW TURNS ON THEM AND LEAVES MANY IN AND OUTSIDE CIA TO FEND FOR THEMSELVES. AS YOU CAN SEE, I AM IN A DITHER HERE ABOUT THIS INFORMATION, I CERTAINLY WILL FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE AFTER YOU HAVE READ IT AND GIVE ME YOUR EVALUATION. THERE IS NO ONE IN THE WORLD I TRUST MORE THAN YOU TO SET ME STRAIGHT. YOU HAVE NO SINISTER MOTIVES IN HELPING ME IN CONSTRAST TO SOME OTHER"GENTLEMEN" I S.HALL NOT NAME IN ALL DUE RESPECT, NOT EVERYONE I HAVE COME TO KNOW AND MEET THROUGH THIS WORK HAVE ALWAYS HAD THE PURIST MOTIVES FOR HELPING ME. I VALUE YOUR INTELLIGENCE AND KNOW THAT I NEED NOT SAY MORE. SO, IT IS TO YOU MY WONDERFUL HAROLD THAT I TURN FOR MUCH NEEDED GUIDANCE. PLEASE FORGIVE ME FOR DOING SO, I WILL UNDERSTAND IF YOU CANNOT HELP ME, I HONESTLY DEPLORE THE FACT THAT I FEEL THE NEED TO TURN TO YOU, NOT BECAUSE I DON'T TRUST YOU, THAT'S THE REASON I AM ASKING YOU FOR YOUR GUIDANCE, BECAUSE I DO TRUST YOU AND I KNOW OF YOUR LOVE AND DEVOTION TO YOUR PRECIOUS LIL, THAT I FEEL NO FEAR WHATSOEVER IN COMING TO YOU FOR YOUR ADVICE AND GUIDANCE. WHAT I DEPLORE IS THAT YOU ARE ILL AND I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO BOTHER YOU WITH ANYTHING, MUCH LESS HELPING ME, BUT PLEASE KNOW THAT I DO SO OUT OF LOVE AND RESPECT FOR YOU AND EVEN IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO GIVE ME ANY GUIDANCE, I WILL UNDERSTAND AND THANK YOU ANYWAY FOR EVEN READING ALL OF THIS. HAD I KNOWN I WAS GOING TO WRITE A BOOK TO YOU, WHEN I STARTED THIS P.S., I WOULDN' HAVE BOTHERED WITH THE CASSETTE, WELL AT LEAST THIS GIVES YOU A VARIETY OF THINGS TO DO AND MAYBE HELP YOU FROM GETTING SO BORED DURING YOUR RECOVERY. WELL, I REALLY HAVE TO GET OFF THIS TYPEWRITTER HAL, IT IS SO HOT FROM ALL THE TYPING, THE HEAT FROM THE MOTOR IS GOING THROUGH THE TOWEL I HAVE ON MY KNEES WHERE THE TYPEWRITTER IS, MY KNEES ARE BEGINNING TO BURN. SO LOOKING FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU, I PRAY YOU WILL ANSWER ME, I PROMISE TO MAKE THE NEXT ONE MUCH SHORTER. PLEASE TRY AND UNDERSTAND MY DELIMA AND FORGIVE ME. -7—h:a /4,_ s n o rt-fl P 0-- c-
