"Well, I don't know what you are talking about."
He just cut it off. As I recall, he refused to even acknowledge there
was such a picture. They had none of these exhibits in the room.
Mr. BELIN. You didn't have the picture at the time in the room when you
were there?
Mr. HOLMES. No.
Mr. BELIN. Did anyone say anything about his living on a so-called
Neely Street, that you remember? Or Captain Fritz, did he say that he
told Oswald that friends had visited him there and that friends had
seen Oswald there? Do you remember at this time anything about that?
Mr. HOLMES. I don't remember his answer to it, whether he did answer.
Mr. BELIN. Was anything--pardon me.
Mr. HOLMES. I remember Fritz, I think, describe the fellow, and he just
ignored it. He was vague about it.
Mr. BELIN. Do you remember any statements that Oswald made about any
fight in New Orleans about Marxism or fair play for Cuba or anything?
Does that ring a bell with you?
Mr. HOLMES. I knew all about it, and I knew the police records and all,
but I don't know that it was brought up in that room at that time.
Mr. BELIN. Was anything in that room--was he asked about knowing Alek
Hidell? Or anything about Alek Hidell?
Mr. HOLMES. I brought it up first as to did he ever have a package sent
to him from anywhere. I said, "Did you receive mail through this box
2915 under the name of any other name than Lee Oswald," and he said,
"Absolutely not."
"What about a package to an A. J. Hidell?"
