He was coming down the street.
:46:01
My 5-year-old and myself
were by ourselves on Palmer Street.

:46:06
I waved, and the m...
:46:08
The man...
:46:09
That's all right.
:46:11
Go ahead.
:46:13
As he was waving, a shot rang out.
:46:15
He slumped down.
:46:17
His wife reached up toward him.
:46:19
He was slumping down
:46:21
and the second shot went off
and knocked him down.

:46:25
Two shots?
:46:26
Did you see who...
:46:27
I did not see the man who did it.
:46:28
I'm sorry.
:46:33

Here is a flash
from the Associated Press.

:46:39
Dateline: Dallas.
:46:40
Two priests who were
with the President say

:46:44
he is dead of bullet wounds.
:46:45
There is no confirmation.
:46:47
This is what we have on a flash basis

We have two men...
:46:54
who administered the last rites
of the Catholic Church to the President

:46:58
President Kennedy
has been assassinated. It's official.

:47:02
The President is dead.
:47:05
Women here in shock. Some have fainted.
:47:08
Two Secret Servicemen,
standing by the Emergency Room

:47:11
tears streaming down their faces.
:47:14
There's only one word to describe
the picture here and that's grief.

:47:21
It's official. It just came in:
:47:24
The President
of the United States is dead.

:47:30
It feels like there isn't a single
adult left on the entire planet.

:47:40
Oh, God, what are you doing?
:47:43
How could you let this happen?
:47:51
I miss my father.
:47:53
Is he watching television?
:47:56
Maybe he's in Brazil
and doesn't know what's happened.
