Summary  
The documents detail a 1968 FBI investigation into telephone calls originating from Alpine, Texas, and surrounding areas, with connections to James Earl Ray, later identified as the assassin of Martin Luther King Jr. The inquiry spans December 1967–May 1968, focusing on payphone calls linked to individuals in Alpine, including Tom Henderson, Bobby Smith, and Sul Ross College students. Law enforcement agencies, including the FBI’s SAC El Paso (157-186), interviewed residents in El Paso, Kermit, and Midland to trace call patterns and verify potential links to Ray. References to "wanted flyer numbers" (e.g., 422-A, 442-44-2) indicate efforts to identify individuals matching Ray’s description. The text also includes fragmented telephonic records from May 1968 involving Daniel Colley, arrested for drunkenness in Saltville, Virginia, and attempts to trace calls linked to him. Administrative notes mention U.S. Savings Bonds promotions and document classification under Executive Order 14176.
