(Testimony of Curtis Laverne Crafard Resumed)

Mr. Crafard.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Griffin.
The front part of page 7.
Now turning to the back of page 7, there are some entries in pencil, are those all in your handwriting?
Mr. Crafard.
Yes.
Mr. Griffin.
Now what is the first entry?
Mr. Crafard.
Ed McMulmore it looks like. It is probably spelled wrong.
Mr. Griffin.
Do you remember that name?
Mr. Crafard.
No, sir. I don't.
Mr. Griffin.
And then there is two telephone numbers written after that.
Mr. Crafard.
There is the word "Johnnie call Detroit."
Mr. Griffin.
But there are two telephone numbers.
Mr. Crafard.
Yes.
Mr. Griffin.
And then the note "Johnnie call Detroit Helene." What does that have to do with--?
Mr. Crafard.
Johnnie was the first name of one of the MC's Jack had working for him. I don't recall the last name. He got a call to call Detroit, to call Helene in Detroit. Apparently he had the number because that is all I got. I was told to have him call Helene in Detroit.
Mr. Griffin.
Do you know who Helene was?
Mr. Crafard.
No, sir. I thought it was possibly his wife.
Mr. Griffin.
Then there are three blank lines.
Mr. Crafard.
Yes.
Mr. Griffin.
And a number written upside down. What number is that?
Mr. Crafard.
That is RI 6-6807.
Mr. Griffin.
Do you recognize that number?
Mr. Crafard.
No; I don't. I don't believe that is my handwriting. It doesn't appear to be. For one thing for the fact that it is wrote with the page turned upside down, for one thing, and the numbers aren't shaped like any numbers are shaped.
Mr. Griffin.
Is it possible, referring to the top of the page, that this entry which looks like Ed McMulmore is really Ed Mc, and then Mulmore?
Mr. Crafard.
It could be; yes.
Mr. Griffin.
Would that mean anything to you reading it that way?
Mr. Crafard.
No.
Mr. Griffin.
Now written on the right side up on the back of page 7 after the entry RI 6-6807, there is another entry. What is that?
Mr. Crafard.
CEN, which would be I believe the abbreviation for Central, and EX, which I believe would be the abbreviation for Expressway, dash 5400.
Mr. Griffin.
What does that have to do with?
Mr. Crafard.
I don't think anything. I believe that is my writing. Let me see.
Mr. Griffin.
It is or is not?
Mr. Crafard.
I believe it is. Wait a minute, Jack was going somewhere or somebody else was going for him and he was having trouble, didn't know how to get there. Somebody was going somewhere and they didn't know how to get there and I was talking to the people they was going to see and they told me to have him turn at Central Expressway 5400 on McKinney to 2500.
Mr. Griffin.
Those are directions to get to some place?
Mr. Crafard.
Yes; McKinney, but I don't remember where.
Mr. Griffin.
And were they directions for you or for Jack?
Mr. Crafard.
For somebody else. I don't recall who it was for.
Mr. Griffin.
For a friend of Jack's?
Mr. Crafard.
I don't recall. I give the directions to somebody else but I don't recall who it was.
Mr. Griffin.
Now is it your understanding then that you would drive out Central Expressway to the 5400 block?
Mr. Crafard.
Yes.
Mr. Griffin.
And then at the 5400 block you would find McKinney?
Mr. Crafard.
Make a right-hand turn I believe on McKinney, the 2500 block.
Mr. Griffin.
What makes you think you make a right-hand turn?
