Mr. O. A. Jones Captain of Police Forgery Bureau

Subject: William McEwan Duff Polygraph Examination Sir: A polygraph examination was given to William McEwan Duff upon the request of Lieutenant Cunningham to determine if he had any guilty knowledge about the shooting at General Edwin Walker. This test was conducted at 8:00 P.M. on June 12, 1963. Below is a list of pertinent questions asked. 1. Do you have a grudge with General Walker? Answer: No 2. Did you shoot at General Walker? Answer: No • 3. Do you remember who you were with the night General Walker was shot at? Answer: No 4. Have you given information to anyone about the activity of General Walker or the layout of the house except the two men from Oklahoma? Answer: No 5. Have you owned or had in your possession a high powered rifle since you have been in Dallas? Answer: No 6. Do you know who shot at General Walker? Answer: No Lieutenant Cunningham set this appointment up and was the investigating officer. This officer had left a set of questions for Lieutenant Potts to bring with Mr. Duff to be examined. Lieutenant Potts was not familar with this case. Lieutenant Potts was advised there was a definite language barrier between Mr. Duff and the examiner because Mr. Duff was an immigrant. Taking everything in consideration, it was the opinion of this examiner, that .tr. Duff was truthful ca all the above questions except question number three. Due to a lasp of time between the offense and examination, this person seemed puzzled over this question which could have caused the indication of deception. Due to the fact this person answered the other questions with the truth, it is believed Mr. Duff was confused rather than lying.

Respectfully submitted,

Q188 Bullet from Edwin A. Walker's residence

Results of examination: The remaining physical characteristics of the bullet, Q188, are the same as those of the bullet and bullet fragments recovered in connection with the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and the same as those of 6.5 millimeter Mannlicher-Carman bullets manufactured by tho Uestern Cartridge Company. The mutilation of Q103 prevents stating that it is of Western manufacture to the exclusion of all other sources.

2 - FBI, Dallas

Page 1 (continued on next page) Specimen Q188 was fired from a barrel rifled with four lands and grooves, right twist. Mannlicher-Carcano rifles of the typo used in the assassination of President Kennedy (described as specimen K1 in Laboratory report' PC-78243 BX) are among those which produce general rifling impressions such as were found on specimen Q188. Because of the'extreMe mutilation and distortion of Q188 and because the individual microscopic marks left on bullets by the barrel of the Kl.rifle could have chaugod subsequent to the time Q188 was fired, it was not possible to determine whether or not Q183 was fired from Kl. There are no specimens presently being maintained in the National Unidentified Ammunition Filo which could have been fired from the K1 rifle or which logically should be compared with Q183. Further, no bullets for rifles which logically should be compared with specimen Q1C3 have come to the attention of the FBI Laboratory since Larch, 1833. The copper jacket and the lend core of the Q183 bullet were determined to be slightly different in corpooitions from the copper jackets and lead cores of the Ql and Q2 bullets. Although the differences in composition between the Q188 and the Q1 and Q2 bullets wore srall and do not indicate that these bullets represent two different types of bullets, it was not possible to determine if theme bullets camp from the same box. It is to be noted that there is no assurance in the fabrication of ammunition that all the ammunition ending up in one box possesses bullets from the same batch of metal, that is, with the same composition. The bullet, Q183, is being temporarily retained in the Laboratory for comparison with any additional bullets which may be roceivod.

Ruth Paine with whom Yrs. Marina Oseead had been living. When these articles were examined in the Secret *Service Office there was found in a book a note written in very poor Russian which ear, in the handwriting of and which apparently was instr-ections to his wife what she should do in the event that he should be alive and taken as a prisoner.

On December 3, 1963 Frs. Marina Oswald was questioned about this note by one of our special agents who speaks Russian and she stated that this note had nothing to do with the assassination of President Kennedy and that the note was written by her husband prior to his attempted assassination of General Walker, uhon she classified as the head of the Fascist Orcanization in the United States and who lived in Dallas, Texas, when they, the 0:7,:alds, lived on Neely Street in Dallas; that the note, together with a Pets:: Office key was left on a dresser of their bedroom and after reading the note she was afraid that her husband was planning on doing something dreadZul due to his hate for the Fascist Organizations and their beliefs. She also stated that when her husband returned hone late that night he was very nervous and finally told her that he shot Walker with his rifle and that it was best for everybody that he got rid of him.

Oswald further stated that when it vas learned the next day from radios and newspapers that the rifle shot fired by an unknown person had missed :Calker that she decided to keep the note as a threat against her hus- band so that he would not mistreat her again (it was determined that when the Osualds lived on Neely Street thiee people living downstairs beneath the 0514alds had complained to the landlord about Oswald beating his wife) which he had leronised not to do. She further commented that she did not report this Witter to the Police as the loved her husband and particularly that she did not report it to the Police on account of their child. Sha stated, 2.

?:::cur, that had the shot hit General Walker, that she would have reported miy.:r to the Police. She as apprehensive about this matter being r.:::,ort:d to the Police because she had a fear of being taken in custody by the because the information contained in this letter regarding the C.,meral ::alkar incident and the rifle would show that she had not told the Police all she hn,:w uhen she was shown and questioned about the rifle that was used to assassinate President Kennedy. Cn Dec. 10, 1963, our Special Agent had an opportunity to question Hrs. Osuald more in detail regarding the General Walker incident and she stared that Lee Harvey Oswald told her that once before taking the shot at C:noral 1:alker on April 10, 1963, be had gone to the Walker residence for the cam.e purpose but he had changed his rind as the place had not looked just right for him and that 3 days prior to April 10, 1963, he took his rifle out cf the house aA buried it in a field near Walker's house. Hrs. Oswald P.;:rer stated that upon her huqband's return to the house after he had tried to :di' Cameral Walker and telling her about it that 3 days later she saw hiss t-hing his rilitary green raincoat for the purpose of wrapping the rifle and briaging it home. However, she stated that when he returned bore she ef.c mat see the rifle but several days later she saw the rifle on a shelf in apart=ent uhere he alwkys kept it. She also stated that the evening her bid s:hot at Walker he told her that the church which is located near the house had some gathering; that there was plenty of noise and that arta:. the shooting of Walker he buried the rifle in the same place.

s. Marina Oswald further stated that Lee Harvey Oswald told her after r.: ::g it nzwa?a?ers that score young man saw an automobile containing three auay from the scene of the shooting, that the Amaricans always they should have a car to get away from the scone of the trine but that he had rather use his feet tc do so rather than a car, and he stated that :ma had taken a bus to go to the Walker residence and that he took a different btu to return home after the shooting. .rs. Marina Oswald was questioned as to how she was able tc explain to msthar-in-la-J, Mrs. Marguerite Osuald, concerning the atterpted assassi- :%ntion of General Walker by her husband, and-she replied that she did to the best of her knowledge of the English language, and that no one else knew about the shooting at General Walker by her husband excepting her and her rother-in- law.
