Memorandum:
Relating to the death of Luis Bosch y Martinez Age 46, a
citizen of
Cuba, born in Regla, Prov. Of Havana, living at the New York
Apts. 11th, and Miami Ave. – Miami: -
–
Luis Bosch y Martinez, a political Refugee, of the past
administration
in Cuba, came to the United States Nov. 4th, 1933, via Pan
American
Airways:
Upon his arrival in Miami, he rented and lived in an
apartment at No 12
N. W. 11th St. and Miami Ave., in company with Dr. Rogelio
Diaz Pardo,
an ex senator and Pedro Anyaumat, ex second chief of police
Department
of Justice, Havana- Cuba, both persons of good conduct and
standing:
It is reported by his friends Dias Pardo and Anyaumat, that
Bosch, won
about $1600.00 in a Tampa Lottery, on or about the later
part of the
Month of March 1934:
That he cashed the ticket, from a Cuban named, or known as
"El Consul"
who also sells these tickets in Miami, and that Bosch was
carrying the
money with him in his pockets: That Dr. Diaz Pardo advised
Bosch, to
deposit the money in a Bank, as he considered it very
dangerous to
carry it with him:
That Bosch, accepted the advise and went to the First
National Bank of
Miami, and made a deposit of $1400, in the Savings Dept. of
said bank:
The investigation shows that on Saturday, April 21st. Bosch
accompanied
by a man 5'10", dark complexion, weighing about 190 or 200
lbs. 35 to
38 years of age, went to the First National Bank of Miami,
and
extracted the balance, issuing a check for $1100.00.--

On Monday morning April the 23rd. Luis Bosch appeared at the
office of
Jose T. Medina, in the Immigration and Naturalization
Service, P. O.
Building 338, accompanied by two other men, and informed,
that he
intended to depart from the United States, for Mexico, and
that he was
going with one of the two men, there, who at the time had
his back to
Medina: Bosch called this man as Sr. BOUSQUE, who turned
around and
reluctantly, came over to be introduced: This man is about
5'10" tall,
dark complexion heavy set, must weight near 200 Lbs. black
hair, black
eyes, well dressed, clean shaven, round face, shook hands
with Medina,
and told Bosch to hurry that they had to leave:
Last night, Thursday, April the 26th, I was at my apartment
in Miami
Beach, and about ten o'clock, a call was made for me I asked
the party
to come up, and, found Mr. Antonio Bosch, a doctor, Pedro
Anyaumat, and
another lawyer named Roig, who has just arrived from Havana,
and who
incidentally was the third person to visit me at the Federal
Building:
Anyaumat, who has been a policeman for many years undertook
to tell me,
that something of a rather mysterious nature had taken
place, and
wanted to explained to me, and obtain my advise: He said
that Bosch,
had won the lottery along the lines previously explained:
That, about
two or three weeks ago, Bosch, had been spending money
freely and going
to cabarets or night clubs, accompanied by his new friends
Bosque and
One Perez (Alias) Tripita, who was then residing at the
Hotel Concha,
No, 38 N West. 5th. Street:
That Bosch had also made the acquaintance of two ladies, one
(Page 3)
living at the same apartment house Bosch lived (#12 N.W.
11th ST.
Vorner Miami) and that it was Bosch's intention to take one
of these
women to Mexico with him, if she desired to go:
That on Wednesday, last, Bosch, invited all his friends to
the Concha
Hotel, for a farewell dinner party, and the following are
the persons
who were present in accordance with Anyaumat: two American
ladies, one
of them the one living at the New York Apt. another man (an
American)
who is the husband of the other lady: Freddy Bosque,
Salvador Perez,
(Alias) Tripita) of room No. 1 Concha Hotel, a man from
Tampa known as
Omero, works in a cigar factory Jose Roig, a Judge of Regla
(the home
town of Bosch) and Mr. Anyaumat: That the dinner party
started at 8:30
and was over at 10 P. M.: That after the dinner Bosch, left
the Concha
hotel with the American couple, Omero and the American lady
living at
the New York Apartment (No. 10) and went in the American's
car to a
night club: That about 12:30 that night, Anyaumat, was
walking to his
apartment (Miami and 11th.) on Miami Ave going North) and
saw Bosque
and Perez, driving a Chevrolet, Two door sedan, looked new
bright
paint, and stopped the car to talk to Anyaumat, and asked
him if he had
seen Bosch: Anyaumat said no, and Bosque then said, that if
he saw
Bosch to tell him not to consider taking the two women with
them as it
was very dangerous to travel with women in the United States
when you
are not married to them: Anyaumat, then went to New York
Apt. (Room 4)
where Bosch was living with him, and started to write a
letter, and
about 2 in the morning, Luis Bosch arrived in the apartment,
and told
Anyaumat, that he had arranged with the two American women,
to leave
Miami at 4 A. M. that day, in
(Page 4)
Bosques automobile towards Tampa Fla., at the time Bosh was
telling
Anyaumat the above, in came FREDDY BOSQUE, alone, and Bosch,
began to
tell Bosque, the story of his outing with the Americans at
the night
club, and said: that the two women were ready and prepared
to leave
with them at 4 P.M. that day: That Bosque then said, "O. K.
we have
time, lets take a drive until 4 A.M." then, both Bosque and
Bosch went
to Apt. 10, and after talking to the lady in Apt. 10 they
left:
That due to the fact that Bosch did not show up the next
morning, that
is Thursday morning, and had not return to get his baggage,
and the
idea that he was to go to Mexico, without his clothes, began
to worry
Anyaumat, who made certain investigations as to the
possibilities of
Bosque having left Miami, and found that Bosque, had a room
at the
Francis Hotel, and investigations there disclosed that he
had checked
out at 3 P M/ that day, and subsequently, Anyaumat, went to
the Concha
Hotel, where he was told that Perez, Alias Tripita- had also
left the
hotel:
That he also had heard Bosque tell, Luis Bosch, that
Tripita, had
wished himself on the party to Tampa, and that he was unable
to refuse
him, there by Anyaumat, has the impression that Perez or
Tripita, was
in the combination:
That, all these details were given me, and information was
filed by the writer with Chief Scarboro, early today:
That the writer, had some pictures taken, some time ago at
the Miami
Photo Studios, and while there, saw a Photo, of Luis Bosch,
in the
counter there, and this morning, asked the proprietor of the
studios to
let me have it for identification purposes, and same has
seen files
with Chief Scarboro.
