Mrs. Davis.

No.

Mr. Belin.

They did not?

Mrs. Davis.

No.

Mr. Belin.

Did they read the statement back to you?

Mrs. Davis.

Not that I remember.

Mr. Belin.

They may have but you don't remember.

Mrs. Davis.

May have but I don't remember.

Mr. Belin.

Now, Mrs. Davis, you and I never talked about this matter until the court reporter started taking your testimony, have we?

Mrs. Davis.

No, sir.

Mr. Belin.

I never met you before, is that correct?

Mrs. Davis.

No, sir.

Mr. Belin.

Have you ever talked with any person in connection with the President's Commission before we started taking your testimony here?

Mrs. Davis.

No, sir.
Mr. BELIN. I want to be certain that we get this time sequence correct as to when you saw the man with the gun and when the police were called, so I am just going to ask you to sit for about 30 seconds and Just think as to just what did happen, and then just tell the court reporter in your own words just what did happen there.
(Three minutes of silence.)
Mr. BELIN. Now, Mrs. Davis, you may not be able to remember just what exactly the time sequence was. You have been sitting here about 3 minutes, and if you don't remember what the time sequence was, why I would like to have you so state. But if you do remember---or do you want more time to think about it?
Mrs. DAVIS. Well, the best I can remember, it was before that we saw the boy cut across the yard that we called the police, the best that I can remember.
Mr. BELIN. In other words, it is your testimony, as I understand it now, that you heard the shot, and then what did you do?

Mrs. Davis.

We heard the second shot and we ran to the front door.

Mr. Belin.

What did you see?

Mrs. DAVIS. We saw this boy cut across the yard, and we had seen this woman was coming home from work, she had on a uniform, that was Mrs. Markham---we didn't know it was at the time, but she saw all that happen.

Mr. Belin.

What did you do when you got to the door?

Mrs. Davis.

We saw the boy cut across our yard.

Mr. Belin.

At the time you got to the door, did you also see Mrs. Markham?

Mrs. Davis.

Yes, sir.
Mr. BELIN. Did you see both at approximately the same time? I will ask you whom did you see first, Mrs. Markham, or the boy cutting across the yard?

Mrs. Davis.

The boy.

Mr. Belin.

You saw the boy first?

Mrs. Davis.

That is who we saw first.

Mr. Belin.

Then you saw Mrs. Markham second?

Mrs. Davis.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Belin.

Did the boy say anything?

Mrs. Davis.

No, sir.

Mr. Belin.

Did Mrs. Markham say anything?

Mrs. DAVIS. Well, when she got across the other street, 10th, she hollered, "He's dead, he's dead, he shot him."

Mr. Belin.

Then what did she say?

Mrs. Davis.

She was screaming. I don't know.

Mr. Belin.

Then what did you do?

Mrs. Davis.

Well, we called the police. Notified them.

Mr. Belin.

So you called the police after you saw the boy?

Mrs. Davis.

After we saw the boy.

Mr. Belin.

And Mrs. Markham?

Mrs. Davis.

Yes.

Mr. Belin.

You are nodding your head yes. Is that your testimony, to the best of your recollection?
