(10:10:39) Mr. HUBBELL. If I had the time and the resources. Senator BOND. If there were items in there that you felt might be within the scope of the request, but would be subject to a privilege, you would indicate a description of the document without the content and indicate that it was privileged? Mr. HUBBELL. That's the way it's handled in a lot of civil litigation, yes, sir. Senator BOND. Are you aware of any documentation made of the contents of Mr. Foster's office? Mr. HUBBELL. Not one way or the other, Senator BOND. Are you aware of any notes taken by the Associate White House Counsel and Mr. Foster's attorney after the death? Mr. HUBBELL. Not one way or the other, Senator. Senator BOND. Thank you, Mr. Chairman, The CHAIRMAN. Thank you, Senator Bond. We'll return to this side because we only have a minute left. Senator Kerry. OPENING COMMENTS OF SENATOR JOHN F. KERRY Senator KERRY. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Hubbell, you were not really directly involved in any of the ctual search for any files in Mr. Foster's office; correct? 84 Mr. HUBBELL. That's correct. Senator KERRY. You, in effect, took yourself completely out of the investigation portion with respect to the office; correct? Mr. HUBBELL. That's correct, Senator. Senator KERRY. You issued no orders with respect to the search?, Mr. HUBBELL. I was acting as a family friend from the moment., I heard of Vince's death, and I don't believe I issued any orders. Senator KERRY. So, essentially, any questions that have been asked of you with respect to the search of the office, whatever you know, you only know as a secondhand matter; correct? Mr. HUBBELL. Regarding Vince's office, that's correct. Senator KERRY. Do you, as a matter of fact, now know that the' Park Police succeeded in seeing each file that they wanted to see? Mr. HUBBELL. I don't know one way or the other. Senator KERRY. You have no knowledge whatsoever? Mr. HUBBELL. I do not. Senator KERRY. You can't shed any light on the central question that's on this Committee about the handling of the documents? Mr. HUBBELL. That's correct. Senator KERRY. Now, at some point prior to coming to Washington during the course of the campaign, you came to have possession of the so-called Whitewater files; correct? Mr. HUBBELL. No, I don't know what people mean by Whitewater file, Senator KERRY. You had a file that was built up in the course of the campaign to respond to questions during the campaign? Mr. HUBBELL. I had a file that had been assimilated by the campaign that was labeled Whitewater, but I don't necessarily-and I'm sure that was not all the Whitewater files. Senator KERRY. But whatever you had, were you the designated holder, in a sense, of the campaign's accrued information on this issue? Mr. HUBBELL. That's correct. Senator KERRY, It was an issue that was brought up several times during the course of the campaign and the campaign needed to respond? Mr. HUBBELL. That's correct. Senator KERRY. You were the central repository of that information? Mr. HUBBELL. After the election, yes. Senator KERRY. After the election you took that central repository and you put it in your home? Mr. HUBBELL. That's correct. Senator KERRY. After you put it in your home in Little Rock, at some point it came to be in your home in Washington? Mr. HUBBELL. That is correct. Senator KERRY. But it never went to the Justice Department? Mr. HUBBELL. Never went to the Justice Department. Senator KERRY. It never went to Vince Foster's office? Mr. HUBBELL. No, it did not. Senator KERRY. You never had a conversation with Vince Foster about the files that you had, did you? Mr. HUBBELL. Vince was aware that I had the campaign files, but not what they were. 85 Senator KERRY. You never gave him any portion of them? Mr. HUBBELL. No, I did not. Senator KERRY. Did Vince ever call you and ask you a question about your files? Mr. HUBBELL. No, Vince did not. Senator KERRY. In effect, while you were the central repository of this information in the course of the campaign and retained all of the files from the campaign, which was about as heated and as intense a period of scrutiny as you could find, those files never found their way into Vince Foster's hands? Mr. HUBBELL. That's correct. Senator KERRY. Nor to the White House? Mr. HUBBELL. Nor to the White House, except for one file that's not related to Whitewater in any way. Senator KERRY. Now, it's my understand ing-again, this is secondhand for you, it's secondhand for all of us, but with respect to the question Senator Shelby was asking, it's my understanding that the Park Police were not there to specifically look at a Whitewater file?

(10:15:45) Mr. HUBBELL. I really don't know what they were there for. I would assume they were there to see if there was some kind of a note. Senator KERRY. Correct. The note was the evidence, if you will, of the state of mind of Vince Foster at this moment; is that correct? Mr. HUBBELL. You're talking about what Senator KERRY. You hoped? Mr. HUBBELL. You hoped, yes. Everybody was looking for some idea of what was on Vince's mind. Senator KERRY. That hope is what, in fact, elicited a fairly significant search for a note in the immediate intervening hours after notification of his death; correct? Mr. HUBBELL. That's correct. Senator KERRY. You, in fact, took significant steps to find that note, did you not? Mr. HUBBELL. I looked with Lisa in the house that evening, yes. Senator KERRY. So this is very important, I think. In the immediate aftermath, right after notification, Vince Foster's widow is now looking in her own house for a note? Mr. HUBBELL. That's correct, with me. Senator KERRY. Is it fair to say that at the White House and elsewhere, people were anxious to try to find a note? Mr. HUBBELL, I don't know this for sure because a lot of things happened that night, but I believe I even asked people, did anybody find a note. Senator KERRY. Have you read the note that was subsequently found? Mr. HUBBELL. I have read a copy of the note. I've read the transcription of the note, Senator KERRY. But you know the substance of that note? Mr. HUBBE LL. Yes, I do. Senator KERRY. Is there anything in that note, now a matter of Public knowledge, found several days later, that suggests to you there was a reason that someone might not have wanted that note found prior to that moment in time? 86 Mr. HUBBELL. No, Senator. I think it is the best insight we have into what was troubling Vince at the time. Senator KERRY. Pretty straightforward, is it not? Mr. HUBBELL. Yes, it is. Senator KERRY. Did you have any further conversation with Bernie Nussbaum subsequent to the conversation that you've discussed here? Mr. HUBBELL. No, I did not. Senator KERRY. So you had no further contact with him, other than the one where you said you were out of it, out of the investigative process? Mr. HUBBELL. That's correct. I mean, the only conversations I would have at that point with Bernie were grief conversations. Bernie and I were both pallbearers and I obviously saw Bernie at the funeral, Senator KERRY. I wonder if you would share with us for a moment, so that people who are really interested in this can understand what was going on, if you could describe the concern you had and what you observed in your good friend, Vince Foster, in the weeks preceding the 20th. Mr. HUBBELL. With hindsight, Vince was troubled by the publicity he had been getting in The Wall Street Journal. He was troubled by the fact that the internal audit of the Travel Office affair had been very critical of our good friend Bill Kennedy, and he felt personally to blame for that. With hindsight, the significance of the disease was a lot worse than anybody saw. He was overly suspicious about things, was afraid to use the telephone when he talked to me. Senator KERRY. Did he not relay to you in a conversation, in fact, he was frightened, didn't trust the telephones at the White House? Mr. HUBBELL. Yes, he did. Senator KERRY. What was your reaction to that when you heard that? Mr. HUBBELL. At the time I just thought ah, Vince. With hindsight, I think it was significant of how serious the disease had become. Senator KERRY. What other observations did you make? Mr. HUBBELL. Most of the people, as you know, spent the weekend together before he died and we talked about how tired he was, how down he was. But actually having a good weekend away from Washington, he said he felt a lot better when I left him that evening and then I saw him on Monday.
