(Testimony of Paul M. Raigorodsky)

Mr. Jenner.
Is that George De Mohrenschildt?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
Is everything that is in handwriting on the face of that letter in his handwriting?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
And you received that in due course?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
All right.
Mr. Raigorodsky.
This was written from Port-au-Prince.
Mr. Jenner.
It was written on the stationery of a hotel. Hotel Sans Souci, Port-an-Prince, Haiti. [Raigorodsky Exhibit No. 11-A.]
The next document is an original letter from the De Mohrenschildts, it is a typewritten letter and is signed, "George and Jeanne" over the typewritten signature "Jeanne and George De Mohrenschildt," and is addressed to "Dear Paul." Up here in the right hand corner is "Port-an-Prince, September 12, 1963, c/o American Embassy." [De Mohrenschildt Exhibit No. 9.]
That is a letter to you, is it?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
You received it in due course?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
There is attached to the letter an envelope addressed to you, it looks like that is his handwriting?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
Yes, that George's handwriting.
Mr. Jenner.
And is that the envelope in which the letter of September 12, 1963, was enclosed?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
Yes, I'm sure it is.
Mr. Jenner.
Is that correct?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
Correct.
Mr. Jenner.
Now, Mr. Raigorodsky has handed me an envelope postmarked in New York, May 18. 1963, to which he has made reference in his testimony. It is addressed to Mr. Paul M. Raigorodsky, and it looks like fifth floor, First National Bank Building, Dallas, Tex., and it has a stamp on it, "May 20, 1963." That is a rubber stamp imprinted, accompanying this envelope, and there is handed to me his longhand note on "Racquet & Tennis Club" imprinted card. dated in longhand, "May 18, 1963." [Raigorodsky Exhibits Nos. 14 and 14--A, respectively.]
It begins, "Dear Paul," and is signed by "Geo. De M."
Mr. Raigorodsky, are this envelope and card in Mr. De Mohrenschildt's handwriting?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
Yes, they are.
Mr. Jenner.
And was the card enclosed in the envelope here?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
Yes, and here is another letter.
Mr. Jenner.
Mr. Raigorodsky has handed me another letter written on both sides, entirely on both sides in longhand, dated June 30, at Miami, and signed "Jeanne and George De M.". [De Mohrenschildt Exhibit No. 4.]
Do you recognize the handwriting on each side of that letter, Mr. Raigorodsky?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
Whose is it?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
De Mohrenschildt's.
Mr. Jenner.
And did you receive it in due course subsequent to June 30--of what year?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
1963. This is very interesting--this is a map of Haiti. You see where he sent me he said "Our Shada Concession."
Mr. Jenner.
Mr. Raigorodsky, has opened up a Texaco map of Haiti, [De Mohrenschildt Exhibit No. 11] Republica Dominicana on the face of the map---there is handwriting--do you recognize that handwriting?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
Yes; that's George De Mohrenschildt's.
Mr. Jenner.
Did you receive that from him?
Mr. Raigorodsky.
I can't answer that--it probably is mentioned in one of the letters.
Mr. Jenner.
One of the letters I have identified?
