Mrs. Bledsoe.

Well, because I forget what I have to say.

Mr. Ball.

When did you make those notes?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

What day did I make them?
Miss DOUTHIT. When Mr. Sorrels and I were talking about her going to Washington, he made the suggestion that she put all the things down on paper because she might forget something, and I said, "Mary, you put everything on a piece of paper so that you can remember it and you won't forget anything, you know, what happened," and that's when she started making notes.

Mr. Ball.

You have made the notes in the last week?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

Yes.
Miss DOUTHIT. At my suggestion and Mr. Sorrels.

Mr. Ball.

You didn't make any notes during the week he was there?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

No; I didn't pay any attention to him.
Mr. BALL. Your address, make sure that we have this. The address where you were living on the 7th of October was 621 Marsalis--North Marsalis, Dallas. Tex. ?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

That's right. Marsalis.

Mr. Ball.

And you are still living there, aren't you?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

Yes.

Mr. Ball.

And the foreign language that you heard Oswald using over the telephone on this Wednesday afternoon, do you know what the language was?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

No; I didn't.

Mr. Ball.

Are you familiar with the Spanish language?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

No; I am not. Not familiar with any of them.

Mr. Ball.

All you know it was not English?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

No.

Mr. Ball.

But, you can't tell what language?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

No.

Mr. Ball.

Can you make a guess?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

No; I have no idea. I do, because the girl is Spanish, hut I don't know whether he called her or not.
Mr. BALL. What girl is Spanish?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

I mean--his wife was Russian.

Mr. Ball.

Russian.

Mrs. Bledsoe.

I don't know.

Mr. Ball.

Now, when did you see Oswald again?

Mrs. BLEDSOE. Well, I went down to the parade. Oh, when was the parade? The 22d of---the next---22d of February---when was the parade?

Mr. Ball.

The 22d of November the President came to Dallas.
Mrs. BLEDSOE. And I first got off at Neiman's and I---the parade didn't come on, and I kept walking on up, and walked in front of Titche's over on that side there, and I saw the parade there. He passed--I saw the President, oh, I was happy I got to see him. And--so then I got on across and went over to the Athletic Club, and caught the bus.

Mr. Ball.

What bus did you catch?

Mrs. BLEDSOE. Well, I don't remember whether it was the Marsalis or the Romana.

Mr. Ball.

Both go by your house, do they? What was the last one?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

The Marsalis.

Mr. Ball.

What was the second name?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

Romana.

Mr. Ball.

And both go west on Elm?

Mrs. BLEDSOE. Right--so, I got on the bus, and while it was awfully crowded there----

Mr. Ball.

You mean crowded on the bus?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

No; outside.

Mr. Ball.

Were there many people on the bus?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

No.

Mr. Ball.

How many people on the bus?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

Oh, about 10.

Mr. Ball.

And what was the location on Elm where you boarded this bus?

Mrs. Bledsoe.

At the Athletic Club.
