A discussion took place in the Agency about 15 October 1972 on Mr. Silbert's question about "Tom's" phone calls to Mr. Hunt's number at the Mullen Company. None present had any knowledge thereof, and this reply was submitted to the Attorney General on 18 October 1972. Several day-s, later, an officer misunderstood the context of the question, believed it referred to the unknown identity of Mr. Hunt's associate Who had been given a disgui,,,t_t and papers and reported that the unknown "Torn" had later been identified as Mr. Gordon Liddy.
