              MEMORANDUM FOR:  Deputy  Director Security

              SUBJECT



                   1.  Subject is a staff employee of  OEL.  She advised
              the undersigned on the morning of 18 May  1964 of statements
              made to her on Thursday evening 14 May, which  associated
              the CIA with.the assassination of President Kennedy.  She
              wanted a report of the conversation made known to the Office
              of Security.

                   2.  Mrs.     jindicated  that she resided in Prince
              Georges County, Maryland, and several months previously had
              registered as a Republican in order to vote in the up-coming
              primary elections*o This past Thursday night a Mrs. Sherwood
              telephoned Mrs.  ---  indicating she was one of the Delegates
              on the Republican ballot and was supporting Senator Barry
              Goldwater.  Mrs.      told Mrs. Sherwood that she had not
              decided which candidate to support, and that although she had
              registered Republican she held a deep respect for the late
              President Kennedy.  Mrs. Sherwood then made some disparaging
              remarks about the late President Kennedy.  She also furnished
              specific information regarding what she described as a
              reliable prediction, made prior to November 1963, that
              President Kennedy would be assassinated.

                  3.  Mrs.  Sherwood indicated that an acquaintance in West
             Virginia, who  said he was a former CIA courier, had told her
             prior to  the assassination of President Kennedy that President
             Kennedy would  be assassinated and that the assassin in turn
             would alsope  killed.   Mrs. Sherwood further advised, according
             to Mrs.         that her attempts to locate this person in
             West Virginia,  after the assassination, were not successful.
             Apparently,  in Mrs. Sherwood's words, this person just dis-
             appeared from sight,  following the assassination of President
             Kennedy.
