The 25-year-old witness said could easily get away if bail were granted because he had a great deal of money. Mr. Lamontagne had talked about the Rivard property at Ste. Rose. Mr. Lord said he had worked at the hotel on this property in the summer of 1961 when it was under the proprietorship of a man named Trudel. Trudel had sold to a group of individuals including Rivard and the new proprietors had re- fused to keep him on. Mr. Lord said he had told Mr. Lamontagne that this Rivard was not a person for whom he had any sympathy. Andre Desjardins, commission counsel, asked whether Mr. Lord knew at that time whether the U.S. government was inter- ested in the Rivard case. Mr. Lord said he didn't know and Mr. Rouleau had not. told im.
