Mr. Hutchison.

the morning, you naturally acquaint yourself with people more than when you are real busy. I mean, when you are there and there's, say, three or four in the store and you're checking out, you notice people, you observe them a lot more than you do if you're real crowded.

Mr. Jenner.

So, this being relatively early in the morning, it was something that arrested your attention?

Mr. Hutchison.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

Was he accompanied by anyone?

Mr. Hutchison.

Never; never.

Mr. Jenner.

How Often did this take place?

Mr. Hutchison.

I would say I saw the boy approximately four or five times at the maximum that I can remember--four or five times. And it would be a day or two or three between. It was always in the morning.

Mr. Jenner.

Always?

Mr. Hutchison.

I open at 7 o'clock in the morning, and I would say it was between 7:20 and 7:45 because it was--it just got to be a routine.

Mr. Jenner.

Does your memory serve you sufficiently as to whether these purchases or visits included midweek days? That is, let's take Monday through Thursday. Would there be any on those days?

Mr. Hutchison.

No, sir; I couldn't say. I couldn't pinpoint the day. I know that--that it was between--there would be a day or two between, or maybe three between.

Mr. Jenner.

Would your memory serve you as to whether--let's take one day--there-was any degree of regularity of this person's visits to your market on Monday?

Mr. Hutchison.

No; no--I couldn't pinpoint Monday. No, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

You are open on Sunday, you say. Do you recall this gentleman you have in mind ever having visited and made purchases on Sunday morning?

Mr. Hutchison.

No; no, sir. We do very, very little business up until 9 o'clock. They'd just be occasionally a drop-in for a, say, a package of cigarettes or something like that.

Mr. Jenner.

I see.

Mr. Hutchison.

Sunday morning is very quiet, sir. I think I'd have recognized him on Sunday.

Mr. Jenner.

All right. We can eliminate Sunday?

Mr. Hutchison.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

And what about Saturday?

Mr. Hutchison.

I'm not there very often on Saturday morning because I work Saturday nights. So, I couldn't--I couldn't pinpoint Saturday morning.

Mr. Jenner.

And the odds are, then--let's see, we've eliminated Sunday morning--and the likelihood is that you did not see him on Saturday?

Mr. Hutchison.

No, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

I see. So, it would be----

Mr. Hutchison.

During the week.

Mr. Jenner.

Monday through Friday?

Mr. Hutchison.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

When did these visits commence, if you recall?

Mr. Hutchison.

I would say--uh--I came back from out of the country trip in September; so it would have had to have started late September.

Mr. Jenner.

And what is your recollection as to their persistence up to and including November 22, 1963?

Mr. Hutchison.

Well, it would have been just an occasional drop-in.

Mr. Jenner.

During that period?

Mr. Hutchison.

Yes, sir; during that period. Yes, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

Did you see this man at any time subsequent to November 22, 1963?

Mr. Hutchison.

After?

Mr. Jenner.

Uh-huh.

Mr. Hutchison.

No, sir. No, sir. I sure didn't.

Mr. Jenner.

I think I asked you whether he was accompanied by anyone at anytime and you said, "No."

Mr. Hutchison.

Only one time.
