   PART 6   
      
   This report was typed onto disc verbatim from the original   
   document which was sent by John Lear via Federal Express and   
   arrived on October 8, 1988 by Bill Cooper.  I Bill Cooper do   
   swear that no changes were made and do swear that this is an   
   exact verbatim copy of the original.

                             STATEMENT   
      
      
      
      
   I, William S. English, do hereby state and affirm that I   
   have met with Mr. John Olson Lear, on September 16-17, of   
   1988, and that we discussed my original report on my viewing   
   of the Grudge/Bluebook Report 13, in June of 1977.   
      
   I Further state that whatever opinions Mr. Lear form or   
   express on this matter are entirely his own, and that I stood   
   behind my statements made originally when I came forward with   
   this matter, and that I continue to stand behind my   
   statements to this date.   
      
   I further state that anyone saying that they have an   
   admission from me personally that this was a hoax is a liar   
   and that if I was in fact perpetrating a hoax I could have   
   found a better way of doing it.  Instead I have chosen to   
   allow time to either prove or disprove my claims on the   
   information on this matter.  Time it seems has proven the   
   validity of my statements.   
   I welcome the chance to defend my position in either public   
   or private debate and will continue to stand behind by   
   original report.
