[00.59.48] Mr. LENZNER. Now, for the same date, February 4, is there also an indication that reads, file folders ready for AG? Mr. Reisner Yes, it does, at 2 o'clock. Mr. LENZNER. Would you explain what that means? Mr. REISNER. The nature of Mr. Magruder's, the way in which he prepared himself to go to meetings with Mr. Mitchell, both during the, time that; he was Attorney General and subsequently, was that he had two large gray file folders. One of them contained documents that Mr. Magruder wished to bring up with Mr. Mitchell, the other contained copies, identical copies of those documents and for Mr. Magruder's convenience so that if he handed Mitchell a copy of a document he would himself have a copy to refer to, and that is what this refers to. It means that, those two folders wore. prepared with the documents that he wanted to take to the meeting with him. Mr. LENZNER. Prior to the meeting with Mr. Mitchell, did Mr. Liddy ask you to obtain anything for him in preparation for that meeting? Mr. REISNER. I am not certain Whether this was. the meeting. I do not remember Mr. Liddy going to meetings, with Mr, 'Mitchell very often. I presume this was the meeting. I can remember a conversation with Mr. Liddy in which he came to me and indicated that he had something of the nature of a visual presentation that, he wished to make and He was interested in being certain that there was an easel or something that he could mount this on in Mr. Mitchell's office. I subsequently tried to determine whether there was such assistance. I do not, think I had it myself, I think I asked one of the secretaries to call Mr. Mitchell's secretary to make that determination, and there was none. That was the nature Of the conversation and his inquiry. Mr. LENZNER. Did you ever see Mr. Liddy with any charts or packages? Mr. REISNER. I saw him With a package that I think might have been charts and might not have been charts, I can't say. Mr. LENZNER. Do you remember approximately when that was? Mr. REISNER. I relate it to approximately the same period of time,. Mr. LENZNER. Do you know if anybody else attended this meeting on February 4 or was scheduled to attend it, besides Mr. Liddy and Mr. Mitchell and Mr. Magruder? Mr. REISNER. I do not know. I have been shown the records that were kept by the secretary who worked for me, Vicki Chern, and in those records it indicates that Mr. Dean attended, would have been Invited to attend that, meeting too, That, is what. the records show. I have no recollection myself. Mr. LENZNER. Now, in February or March of 1972, did Mr. Liddy furnish you with a document to give to Mr. Magruder? [01.02.49--TAPE OUT]
