FORGIVE MY GRIEF
Volume III
BY PENN JONES, JR.
This hard hitting book, a continuation of Mr. Jones’
investigation into the assassination of President John F.
Kennedy contains, among other firsts -
Evidence to sustain the claim that J. Edgar
Hoover was the man in charge of the killer
group that assassinated President Kennedy.
Points of evidence to back up the claim that
Lyndon Johnson knew of the assassination,
and agreed to protect the killers.
Mr. Jones published his first book, FORGIVE MY
GRIEF, Vol. I, in 1966, and it is this third volume of his
work which is the culmination of his years of intensive
research and investigation.
The conspiracy which murdered John Kennedy, and his
brother, Robert, is intentionally and totally ignored by the
mass media. We remind you that the work of Editor Penn
Jones is one of the truly rare opportunities to become
informed of the most frightening mystery of our time.

The angels didn’t have anything to do with this one.
A yield sign that was just a blur of yellow did. And before
that, more than one too many glasses of holiday cheer
helped things along.
It’s a proven fact that one or two drinks are enough to slow
many people’s reaction time appreciably. And slowed
reactions are nothing to have when you’re driving in .
holiday traffic.
Take it easy this year.
Or the holidays may be over before you know it.
