(Testimony of Curtis Laverne Crafard Resumed)

Mr. Hubert.
On your part against him, but, rather, that you wanted to see your sister?
Mr. Crafard.
That is right.
Mr. Hubert.
You don't think you owed it to him just to leave him a note?
Mr. Crafard.
It just never entered my mind.
Mr. Hubert.
Did it occur to you that there might be a question of how much cash you had in fact taken?
Mr. Crafard.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
What about the salary that was owed to you? Weren't you interested in that?
Mr. Crafard.
I didn't even think about it.
Mr. Hubert.
You didn't say goodbye to anybody when you left Dallas?
Mr. Crafard.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
You didn't advise anyone that you were leaving Dallas?
Mr. Crafard.
No; other than the fact that I give the key to the boy at the parking lot and told him to tell Jack goodbye for me.
Mr. Hubert.
You did send a message of goodbye to Jack through this man?
Mr. Crafard.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you leave word where you would be?
Mr. Crafard.
No.
Mr. Griffin.
Did you leave any message to the effect that you had taken $5 out of the till?
Mr. Crafard.
I left a draw slip in the till just like I always have.
Mr. Hubert.
Were you in any kind of trouble there with a girl or something of that sort?
Mr. Crafard.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
That required you to leave as hastily as you did?
Mr. Crafard.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
Is it your custom to move around like that without leaving any contact points?
Mr. Crafard.
Quite frequently; yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Who knew you were working at the Carousel among your family or friends?
Mr. Crafard.
I believe I had wrote my cousin and informed her. I believe I wrote my mother and informed her.
Mr. Hubert.
This girl Gall knew it?
Mr. Crafard.
That is my cousin.
Mr. Hubert.
That is your cousin?
Mr. Crafard.
Yes; the cousin I was referring to at this time.
Mr. Hubert.
What did you expect to have happen to the mail that you got at the Carousel?
Mr. Crafard.
I didn't even realize I had left any mail. I had wrote to the people. I hadn't been getting any answers. My mother doesn't write an awful lot, and I hadn't got any letters from my cousin for a little while. My sister hadn't answered the letter I wrote to her, so I just----
Mr. Hubert.
Weren't you going out with a girl that you had gotten fairly close to by that time?
Mr. Crafard.
She had left Texas at this time. She had left Texas and, as far as I know, went out to California.
Mr. Hubert.
Was there anybody else that you were interested in there?
Mr. Crafard.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
Do you say to us now that in your opinion, and by this I mean your departure from Dallas under the circumstances you did depart was normal in your life?
Mr. Crafard.
Somewhat, yes; most of the time I go to leave, I just take off and go.
Mr. Hubert.
You have done that before?
Mr. Crafard.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Many times?
Mr. Crafard.
I've done it two or three times I can recall. I usually leave from around my people, if I'm around my sister I'll say something to her that
