Mr. Griffin.

Have you seen a copy of that statement since you signed it?

Mr. Croy.

Just a while ago.

Mr. Griffin.

Is there any question in your mind but that the statement that you signed is a complete and accurate copy of the statement that you prepared in your own hand in the police department ?

Mr. Croy.

Yes.

Mr. Griffin.

Do you recall what day it was, the day you prepared that statement?

Mr. Croy.

The following Tuesday night. I don't know what date it was.

Mr. Griffin.

Well, Mr. Croy, why didn't you mention in this report, dated November 26, your seeing this man you believe to be Ruby?

Mr. Croy.

Why didn't I mention that in there?

Mr. Griffin.

Yes.

Mr. Croy.

Because at that time Captain Solomon told me that there would be another report made and I would have to go downtown to the city hall before a stenographer, and he told me just to leave that out for the time being, and put this in this other affidavit that you have, that this right here was just basically to find out where we were in the city hall.

Mr. Griffin.

Then when you prepared this other statement on December 1, who called you and how did you come to go before Notary Public A. L. Curtis?

Mr. Croy.

He is a lieutenant. After I signed it, I took it there to be notarized by him.

Mr. Griffin.

Well, then, how did you happen to--was this done in the police department ?

Mr. Croy.

Yes, it was.

Mr. Griffin.

How did you happen to go to the police department that day?

Mr. Croy.

They called me.

Mr. Griffin.

Who called you ?

Mr. Croy.

Captain Arnett.

Mr. Griffin.

Did you meet Captain Arnett down at the police department?

Mr. Croy.

Yes, I did.

Mr. Griffin.

Did you talk with him before this statement was drawn up?

Mr. Croy.

No, sir.

Mr. Griffin.

Who did you talk to before the statement was drawn up?

Mr. Croy.

Lieutenant Revill.

Mr. Griffin.

Did Lieutenant Revill have any information before him about this, about your having seen Ruby ? Did Lieutenant Revill have any information before him about your having seen Ruby go into the, brush by you?

Mr. Croy.

No.

Mr. Griffin.

He didn't have any information to that effect?

Mr. Croy.

No.

Mr. Griffin.

How did you happen to be called down there?

Mr. Croy.

Because of my position in the basement where I was standing when he shot Oswald.

Mr. Griffin.

All right Now, what did Captain Solomon say to you when you told what you had seen to Revill? Did Revill indicate that he had heard about this before, about your having been a witness to this?

Mr. Croy.

Not that I recall.

Mr. Griffin.

Was anybody else there?

Mr. Croy.

Yes; Lieutenant, I think his name is Cornwall, he was present.

Mr. Griffin.

Did either of them indicate surprise by having seen this?

Mr. Croy.

No.

Mr. Griffin.

You got the impression from the way they spoke, or any impression from the way they spoke, that they had heard this information before?

Mr. Croy.

Well, they didn't act surprised. They didn't act like they didn't know about it. It kind of tied in with the other reports that they had gotten, I presume, from the way they acted.

Mr. Griffin.

Now, what was the general attitude on their part in the taking of these statements. Did you feel that there was some, Cornwall and Revill were concerned about this situation?

Mr. Croy.

Yes; they were.

Mr. Griffin.

How would you describe their general attitude in this interview ?
