Mr. Hubert.

You don't know that?

Mrs. Grant.

I know it's in Hollywood and I know Earl says he received about $23,000.

Mr. Hubert.

It was not handled in Dallas.

Mrs. Grant.

Not to my knowledge 1 cent of that.

Mr. Hubert.

But you say that Earl is the one who is handling the money?

Mrs. Grant.

At that time, Earl had power of attorney.

Mr. Hubert.

He had a power of attorney from Jack?

Mrs. Grant.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

In other words, this contract was made for the benefit of Jack, as it were, and the money that came in was put into some escrow agreement and then Earl was able to withdraw from that and sign checks against it by virtue of the power of attorney; is that right?

Mrs. Grant.

That's right, that's right; these people received, I would say, 35 percent.

Mr. Hubert.

Is that correct--the way I put it?

Mrs. Grant.

Yes; but we received ourselves, I think, $23,000--there may have been $30,000.

Mr. Hubert.

What happened to the money you did receive?

Mrs. Grant.

Earl has checks that were made out directly to Belli, which I think he himself cashed about $13,200.

Mr. Hubert.

Who is "he"?

Mrs. Grant.

Mr. Melvin Belli. I do know that the doctors were paid and that may have run to $3,500, and we do know that Bob Dennison received $4,000. I cannot give you step by step because I do not have it, but Earl has an accounting of all the money received through the efforts of that story; however, Earl has spent--I don't know how many thousands. In the first place, I think Earl put in $7,000 right away for things, but he took it out later.

Mr. Hubert.

Do you know how much has been received all told--you say about $23,000 as a result of the story?

Mrs. Grant.

That's as much as I know. This is what I know. There may have been some money--we were supposed to get money in later, but I don't know if we got it.

Mr. Hubert.

Were there any other people or organizations that contributed any money?

Mrs. Grant.

No; well----

Mr. Hubert.

Or, do you know?

Mrs. Grant.

Yes; I know. But I'm trying to think how to tell it to you. Recently we received $100 from Walter Winchell in the last 10 days. We received $250 a month ago from friends back in Chicago. Then there is a lot of 5's and 10's--I guess I, myself, could not go into that account, by the way. In the city of Dallas, I received $245 that I had given to Eileen to reimburse Earl. We put that in a Jack's defense fund. I received that amount, then that was December and January--those months, and then in March or April, I think I also took $110--let me tell you, the money comes into the county building, you know, the checks, and when I say I received it, it doesn't come directly to me.
I typed up all the money on a list and I sent it on to Eileen with a check for deposit of $110. That's the money that I know, but if we will stop for a minute, I know the hundred, the 250, the 245 and the hundred--those were plus .that $23,000. Now, if there is any other money--did I tell you any other money? I told you everything there was.

Mr. Hubert.

There are no substantial amounts?

Mrs. Grant.

Oh, no; listen, 'don't listen to those reports.

Mr. Hubert.

Except from the result of the selling?

Mrs. Grant.

The big fee was $250 and the .story was sold, and we received--I would say Larry Schiller and Billy Wood field took 35 percent of the money--the writer and the agent that sells it of the story. I know there was $23,000 came in and there may have been more since then.

Mr. Hubert.

In any case, Earl would have more accurate figures?

Mrs. Grant.

Oh, yes.

Mr. Hubert.

As far as you know, in the handling of the money, it is less than a thousand dollars that came through you?
