I have to go out - I'll be back. I want to talk about the so called, "Walker Note"
The note is written in Russian. There is no date. There is no signature. There is NO MENTION of Walker at all.
How is this in anyway related to the General? Any thoughts on why he would even write this note?
In translation, the note read as follows:
1. This is the key to the mailbox which is located in the main post office in the city on Ervay Street.
This is the same street where the drugstore, in which you always waited is located. You will find the mailbox in the post office which is
located 4 blocks from the drugstore on that street. I paid for the box last month so don't worry about it.
2. Send the information as to what has happened to me to the Embassy and include newspaper clippings
(should there be anything about me in the newspapers). I believe that the Embassy will come quickly to your assistance on learning everything.
3. I paid the house rent on the 2d so don't worry about it.
4. Recently I also paid for water and gas.
5. The money from work will possibly be coming. The money will be sent to our post office box. Go to the bank and cash the check.
6. You can either throw out or give my clothing, etc. away. Do not keep these. However, I prefer that you hold on to my personal papers (military, civil, etc.).
The note is written in Russian.
James Cadigan testified the note was written by Oswald, besides there is information contained within that Oswald was privy to, stay tuned.
There is no date.
Huh? Why would the note require a date, if Oswald succeeded in killing General Walker then everything contained in that note needed immediate action.
There is no signature
Another Huh? The note clearly came from Oswald. When you leave a note on the fridge telling your significant other that you are going for a beer with the fella's do you sign it and date it? When you leave a shopping list for the missus, do you sign it and date it?
There is NO MENTION of Walker at all.
Triple Huh? Did you expect Oswald to write something like, "I Harvey Lee Oswald of sound body and mind will on the 12th of April of the year of our lord 1963 will go forth and assassinate General Edwin Walker, So help me God!"? The name was not necessary for Marina or frankly anyone, because if Marina or anyone found the note early and rang the Police, Oswald's hopes and dreams would disappear like sands through the hourglass.
How is this in anyway related to the General?
As stated above, secrecy is the secret to success!
Any thoughts on why he would even write this note?
The note was simply advice for Marina who being in a new Country, had a small circle of friends and who knew little English would be initially frightened and confused, so Oswald did his best to comfort her before he potentially shattered her World!

7) Certain of my documents are in the small blue valise.
8] The address book can be found on my table in the study should need same.
9) We have friends here. The Red Cross also will help you. (Red Cross in English). [sic]
10) I left you as much money as I could, $60 on the second of the month. You and the baby [apparently] can live for another 2 months using $10 per week.
11) If I am alive and taken prisoner, the city jail is located at the end of the bridge through which we always passed on going to the city (right in the beginning of the city after crossing the bridge).705Now we know when and where the note was written by clues, clues that obviously weren't needed by Marina because she was there living the dream!
• The Neely street apartment was leased on the 3rd of March and Oswald paid in advance on the 2nd. Oswald says he paid the rent money on the "2d" of what must be April. 8 days before the Walker assassination attempt.
• And we know that Oswald took out the Post Box at that address on the 9th of October till mid May. So this note was written in that time frame.
• The note mentions paying for rent meaning that it was written before Marina moved in with Ruth Paine.
• Oswald's directions to the Jail, even though he confused the city jail with the county jail, gave instructions to get there consistent if they were coming from Neely street.
So that along with the map marked with Walker's residence, the covert photographs with the shooting location and a decade and a half later Marina's testimony confirming Oswald's confession when any threat of deportation was a faded memory, all is evidence of Oswald's assassination attempt!
