Summary  
The document contains fragments from newspaper clippings and administrative notes dated March 1977, referencing George de Mohrenschildt’s death in Florida on March 30, 1977. De Mohrenschildt, described as a friend of Lee Harvey Oswald and a professor at Bishop College, was found dead under circumstances suggesting suicide or foul play. His death is linked to his prior testimony before the Warren Commission (April 1964) regarding his relationship with Oswald and alleged CIA/FBI connections. The text mentions his daughter, Alexandria de Mohrenschildt, who reportedly had no knowledge of suspicious activity at the time. A Dutch journalist, William T. Smith, is noted as a longtime friend of de Mohrenschildt.  

The document also includes excerpts from a Dallas Times Herald article (March 29, 1977) discussing a House committee’s investigation into potential conspiracies surrounding JFK’s assassination and the 1968 Memphis shooting involving Martin Luther King Jr. The committee reportedly considered extending its probe, citing unresolved questions about CIA/FBI involvement, Oswald’s actions, and alleged ties to organized crime. The text references conflicting reports, arrests of individuals (including "172" or "179"), and confusion over substitutions among investigators.
