 Hi Tom

 Tc>>> I would be very interested in knowing what your Library consists of.

 About 450 volumes (mostly hard cover) that are directly addressing the event or

 are related to individuals or subjects surrounding the event.

That's a decent library.  Are any of them for sale?

 Tc>>> Do you believe in the official theory?

 NO.

 Tc>>>  Or, do you believe there was a conspiracy?

 Yes.

 Tc>>> Do you have the WR w/26 vols.?

 I have multiple copies (by various publishers) of the WR.

 Unfortunately I DO NOT have the 26 Volumes. I was going to order them from the

 GPO when they first came out (for $85.), but they wanted the money up-front

 with as much as a year (or more) BEFORE delivery. I was dealing with the GPO

 sales office in Houston (on the Gulf Freeway). I passed .... to my chagrin,

 now. I do have a copy of Vol XII where I am identifed in the testimony of Sgt

 DF Steele (Acting Commander of the SW Substation). I was with Don all day on

 Sunday, and I drove the car out of the basement 4 minutes before Rio Sam Pierce

 when Jack Ruby entered. (He was in the WU office {in the same block} when I

 exited the basement.

How in GOD"s name did you get just 1 volume without buying the whole set?

 I MAY know where there is a MINT set. The owner was wanting $2500. TOO much for

 my wallet. 

I know of several sets ranging in price from $1,100 - $3,500.

 Tc>>>   Do you have the HSCA Report w/ the 12 JFK vols.?

 NO

 Tc>>> Do you have the Zapruder Film?

 NO

 Tc>>> Do you have the Z-Film in slide form?

 NO

 Tc>>> Do you have all the Dallas papers from THAT week-end with the

 Tc>>> "Original Reports"?

 YES from the preceeding Wednesday to the succeeding Wednesday.

 Tc>>>  Who did you personnaly know from the Sherrif's Dept.?

 NO-One really. The two law agencies were NOT really compatable with each other.

 Tc>>>  Have you met or been in touch with any of the authors?

 MANY of them.

 I have many works ONLY for reference purposes. I try to avoid reading them so

 that I don't cloud MY recall of events of those days.

 Tc>> My asking price is $300.00

 JH>> MAYBE LOW .... real LOW.

 Tc>>> VERY GLAD TO HEAR "THAT"  (Thanks)  I GUESS THAT MEANS YOU'RE NOT

 Tc>>> EXPECTING TO BUY IT?

 I wouldn't be considered a real good prospect .

 JH>> There is SOMETHING in the book that SOMEONE dosn't want out in the

 JH>> public. I DO NOT know what IT was.

 Tc>> POSSIBLY "605 ELSBETH STREET"

 605 is a BAD number. That PROBABLY came from Hosty to Revill in error OR Revill

 recalled the # on Elsbeth that Hosty said incorrectly. Revill and Hosty

 DESPISED each other. In this particular issue I am completely on Revill's side.

THEN, MAYBE IT'S PAGES 88 - 89  88 IS A PICTURE OF "EVIDENCE"  #1 thru 10.

PAGE 89 ID's #3 AS A FRAGMENT FROM JBC's ARM.  #4 IS A "WHOLE" .38 SLUG TAKEN FROM TIPPIT.  THEY ARE ABOUT THE "SAME SIZE"  THAT SCREWS UP CE 399.

BY THE WAY, WHAT CAN YOU TELL ME ABOUT TIPPIT?

 JH>> BTW I was a reserve DPD officer working in Criminal Intelligence on

 JH>> that fateful day in our history.

 Tc>> GREAT!!!  WHAT CAN YOU TELL ME ABOUT RUBY BEING AN INFORMANT?

 He was ... VERY much so. (OF COURSE in matters that did NOT pertain to him). He

 was what today we would call a "Police Groopie".

 JH>> Please re-read Jack Revill's memo to Capt Gannaway of the afternoon of

 JH>> the 22nd. We (the DPD) DID NOT know of LHO. The FBI DID but had not

 JH>> informed us.

 Tc>> I'M FAMILIAR WITH IT. IT'S ON PAGE 18. APPARENTLY "SOMEONE" ON THE

 Tc>> DALLAS P.D. KNEW OSWALD "BEFORE" 11/22/63.  BECAUSE IT WAS WRITTEN ON

 Tc>> 11/22/63. BUT., IT GIVES OSWALD'S ADDRESS AS "605 ELSBETH STREET".

 See above. Also it WAS an OLD location, he lived 3 places after that (before

 the 22nd).

 Tc>> BTW do you have ANY books on the subject published in French? I am

 Tc>> trying to identify the source of a picture and the captions are in

 Tc>> French.

 Tc>>> NOTHING IN FRENCH.  BUT, I DO HAVE  BOOKS BY LEO SAVAUGE - PARIS

 Tc>>> FLAMMONDE - JAUCHIM JOESTEN - THOMAS BUCHANNON.  THEY ALL STARTED OUT

 Tc>>> IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE.

 Shucks!

 Do any of them have a picture of Jack Ruby standing behind one of his tables

 with 7 people sitting at the table?

I'LL CHECK IT OUT & LET YOU KNOW.

 JH>> Thanks for the response.

 JH>> Jay

 Tc>>> I'LL RAISE YOU. WITH A "DOUBLE THANKS.

 Tc>>> Regards,   Tom

 We're almost in a High Stakes Poker Game. Double entende intended .
