Alright, already!
GME did not swear me to secrecy, and I know that he told at least one other person about this. Nonetheless I'll be guarded. The essence is as follows:
GME was leaving his house one fine day (at a time when JJA was still head of CI) when a bicyclist he had not seen before slowed to a stop and made the initial overture.
It came in the form of a request to help a member of JJA's family in need of ... how shall I put this ... attention.
GME hardly was surprised that JJA knew he was in a position to facilitate matters in this regard. Nor was he unmindful of the levels of gamesmanship that were opening.
On humanitarian grounds alone GME had no real choice; cautiously and not without trepidation he made what even by his own harsh investigative standards was an innocent connection -- in and of itself.
Apparently things went well. The bicyclist sometime later returned with a quid pro quo -- a message from JJA.
"I know your JFK work, and you're on the precisely correct track," or words to that effect.
No further message traffic of which I'm aware.
Best I can do.

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
