Mr. MAYO. I mentioned that to Jack Revill, and they said, well, it was
probably just like lots of people trying to gain entrance. They didn't
think it had much value.
Mr. HUBERT. And he suggested that it be left out of your report?
Mr. MAYO. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Is there anything else?
Mr. MAYO. When I changed positions--stations, and went from Commerce
Street to the Main Street side, about 10 minutes after Oswald had been
placed in the ambulance, I cleared the way for them to get out of the
entrance.
Mr. HUBERT. Yes.
Mr. MAYO. I went to the other side, and a large gentleman, well, he was
slightly bald, weighed over 200 pounds, and walked with a limp. He came
up to me and then said that he was a roommate of Jack Ruby, and that he
wanted to go down and talk to him. And I told him he could not enter. I
asked him what was the nature of his business and he said that Mr. Ruby
had quite a sum of money on his person and he wanted to go down there
and see if he wanted him to handle it for him. I told him he couldn't
go down and he stayed up around there about 20 or 30 minutes, and
finally went on down Main Street.
Mr. HUBERT. Did he give you his name?
Mr. MAYO. I didn't ask him his name. He didn't give me his name. I told
him he couldn't enter--and he walked with a limp. I remember that. He
was a large fellow. Had no tie on and slightly bald. No hat on.
Mr. HUBERT. And he claimed to be a roommate of Jack Ruby?
Mr. MAYO. Jack Ruby; yes, sir.
