The priest who administered the last rites to John F. Kennedy. Original Last Rites leaf, 2.5 x 4, used by Father Oscar Huber when he administered the last rites to President John F. Kennedy at Parkland Hospital on November 22, 1963. Page reads, in part: “May the most clement Virgin Mary, Mother of God, loving consoler of the afflicted, commend to her Son, the soul of this Servant…so that through her maternal intercession he (she) may not fear the terrors of death.” Accompanied by a signed statement of provenance from Huber stating, “This original leaf was taken from the ritual of Father Oscar Huber, C.M., of Holy Trinity Church, Dallas, Texas. This ritual was used by Father Huber when he administered the last rites to President John F. Kennedy at Parkland Hospital, Dallas, Texas, November 22, 1963.” Both are matted and framed to an overall size of 10 x 13. In fine condition, with a thin line of toning along top edge of leaf.
