Curatorial Note:

Winfrey's records do not indicate why the Connallys were in Dallas at Love Field, though the Governor's work often took him around Texas and to other states. He and his wife were likely in Dallas for an appearance or, perhaps, a follow-up examination by one of the doctors who treated his injuries during the shooting. - Gary Mack, Curator
