TRAGIC DOCUMENTS

The official plans for President and Mrs. Kennedy on their trip to Dallas, Texas, in November 1963. The news pool covering the motorcade through the city comprised Merriman Smith, UPI; Frank Cormier, AP; Bob Pierpoint, CBS; and Chuck Roberts, Newsweek. Mrs. Kennedy's schedule describes exactly what she was wearing when her husband was murdered beside her: "Pink & Navy Chanel Suit Navy Shoes, Bag White Kid Gloves Chanel earrings -- gold & sapphire bracelet." The Kennedy's had arranged to visit the LBJ Ranch that evening after the non-press reception in the Governor's Mansion in Austin. Instead the First Lady returned directly to Washington, D. C. with the President's body.
