Sirs
I vi ;fi to submit the following report relative to the transfer of
L«o Oswald.
In the early afternoon of November 23, 19&3 Chief Gurry called me by tele-
phono and asked me when we would be ready to transfer Oswald# Either this con-
versation or a Inter conversation I made some remark that I didn*t know whether
wo were to transfer him or whether someone else was going to transfer hiia, and
the Chief made some remark ahout talking to tho Sheriff and that we were to
transfer bin, I told the Chief we were still talking to him, and he asked me
if we could be ready to transfer him by LtOO pm. t told him I didnH think we
could finish our questioning by that time, and he asked re if we could be finished
by 10:00 am the next morning. Chief Curry raid, "I need to tell the so peoplo
nrrethinr: definite." Vbo he was referring? to I do not know. I told him I
thought we could be read:? by that time.
During the nigrht or early morning hours of November ?3, I received a telephone
call from Captain W. E. Fraaier, who told me that they were going to have to trans-
fer Oswald as some threat had been received and that someone was going' to try to
kill him. I told Captain Frazicr that no security had been set up for bis trans-
fer at that time and that he had better check with the Qief , as he was making
rome arrangements for the transfer. J«atcr, Captain Frazier called me back and
said that he was unalle to reach the Chief and he was going to leave him whore he was.
