(Testimony of Malcolm Howard , Jr. Price)

Mr. Price.
gave me this gun to settle the debt" and he said, "I bought the scope and he mounted it and boresighted it."
Mr. Liebeler.
Did he tell you where this gunsmith was located?
Mr. Price.
No; he didn't say anything about the location other than it was in Cedar Hill.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did he tell you what the guy's name was?
Mr. Price.
No.
Mr. Liebeler.
Was there anyone with him that day or was he by himself?
Mr. Price.
I don't know; I don't know whether he was by himself or not.
Mr. Liebeler.
You didn't see anybody else that seemed to be with him?
Mr. Price.
No; there was a lot of people there and everybody was milling around talking to everybody else and I don't know whether he was with anyone or not.
Mr. Liebeler.
Now, what about the fellow that w. as in the booth on the other side of Mr. Slack, do you remember anything about him--I think you said.
Mr. Price.
All I remember about him was that he was a big fellow with a long black--it was either black or dark red beard.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did you talk to him at all?
Mr. Price.
Other than just to comment on his scope---I didn't have any conversation at all with him.
Mr. Liebeler.
You are talking about Oswald now?
Mr. Price.
No; I'm talking about the fellow with the beard.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did you look through his scope too?
Mr. Price.
Yes; I .did.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did Oswald talk to the fellow with the beard?
Mr. Price.
Well, I suppose he spoke to all of them--to Oswald and Slack both, about the clarity of the telescope.
Mr. Liebeler.
Were you there when they were talking about the clarity of Oswald's telescope?
Mr. Price.
Yes.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did you see this fellow that you think was Oswald come or go from the range or did you just see him there then?
Mr. Price.
I just saw him there. I just saw him there a couple of times.
Mr. Liebeler.
A couple of times that day?
Mr. Price.
No; two separate times, I believe, that Oswald was present at the range both times that he was, as I remember, but I don't know whether they were there together or not.
Mr. Liebeler.
We are getting our wires crossed--you're talking now about the fellow with the beard?
Mr. Price.
Yes.
Mr. Liebeler.
You meant that he was there on the range a couple of different times?
Mr. Price.
Yes; he was there both times that I saw Oswald.
Mr. Liebeler.
That you saw Oswald?
Mr. Price.
That I saw Oswald; yes. The second and third time.
Mr. Liebeler.
But you never saw them come and go together?
Mr. Price.
No; I didn't pay any attention to who came whether they came and left together or how they got there, but just that one particular time he was the only one there.
Mr. Liebeler.
You never noticed how Oswald came to the rifle range and left the range?
Mr. Price.
That's right.
Mr. Liebeler.
Except that first time you saw him?
Mr. Price.
That's right.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did anything else happen with relation to this fellow that you think was Oswald on this third time that you saw him there at the rifle range?
Mr. Price.
No; it was just a conversation about the telescope is all.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did you see the rifle closely that day--you must have handled it in looking through the scope?
Mr. Price.
Oh, yes; I handled it--it was a Mauser-type rifle.
Mr. Liebeler.
What do you mean by that--I don't know anything about rifles?
