"It was most likely for this reason that it later came to the murder of the murderer, whose action was begrudged him. . "{ had originally predicted, and had also made it a condition in conversations with the President, that I would not make known the truth about the murder to the public until half a year after the deed. I also suggested the founding of a memorial library. _ “However, Kennedy did not agree that the announcement of the truth about the murder should wait so long; rather, he demanded that his family be told about it in time. Therefore, some 14 days after the deed, I informed Robert Kennedy, who then informed the widow of the President. Jacqueline Kennedy then sent me a telegram which stated that she thanked me very much and was of the opinion that what I had reported was the best solution of the case. Unfortunately I no longer have the telegram."
