Curatorial Commentary
The Fort Worth Press published afternoon editions Monday through Saturday only and this "special" has a good 16-page summary of what was known about the assassination as of late Saturday morning.  Articles include both wire service and Press reporters' accounts and almost all are assassination-related. - Gary Mack, Curator
