Mr. Ball.

Then what did you do?

Mr. Boyd.

Then Mr. Sims and Hall and Mr. Dhority, who is another detective in our bureau--went out to 1026 North Beckley to recheck Oswald's room out there.

Mr. Ball.

Did you go out there then?

Mr. Boyd.

Yes.

Mr. Ball.

Did you have a search warrant?

Mr. Boyd.

Let me see---I'm not sure if I had a search warrant---I know the landlady was there and let us in there. I didn't have the search warrant myself, I'll say that. One of the other officers might have had a search warrant.

Mr. Ball.

But you didn't have one?

Mr. Boyd.

I didn't have one.

Mr. Ball.

You don't know whether you had one or not?

Mr. Boyd.

I know there was a search warrant gotten but I didn't get it.

Mr. Ball.

Well, there was a search warrant issued to search 1026 North Beckley the day before?

Mr. Boyd.

Yes.

Mr. Ball.

And it was searched the day before---you knew that, didn't you?

Mr. Boyd.

Yes.

Mr. Ball.

When you searched it this day, what did you find?

Mr. Boyd.

Nothing.

Mr. Ball.

Did you take anything with you?

Mr. Boyd.

No, sir.

Mr. Ball.

You took nothing out?

Mr. Boyd.

I don't believe so. I think it was pretty clean.

Mr. Ball.

What kind of furnishings did you see in there?

Mr. Boyd.

Well, I saw a little bed, just a little small dresser--it barely would go in there and you barely did have room enough to walk between the dresser and the wall. The fact is the whole works were wasn't any wider than that--just about that wide [indicating].

Mr. Ball.

The whole room?

Mr. Boyd.

The whole room.

Mr. Ball.

It wasn't any wider than how many feet?

Mr. Boyd.

I would say it wasn't over about 12 feet long and about 5 feet wide or something like that.

Mr. Ball.

Did it have curtains on the windows?

Mr. Boyd.

Well, it had---let's see, I'm not sure if it was curtains or blinds. It had one little bed in there and it barely did have room enough to get in there and go to bed.

Mr. Ball.

You don't recall whether it had curtains or blinds?

Mr. Boyd.

No, sir; I do not.

Mr. Ball.

Did you see Oswald again that day?

Mr. Boyd.

I don't believe I did--let me see.

Mr. Ball.

Well, it says in your report you brought him in at 6:30.

Mr. Boyd.

I didn't do that.

Mr. Ball.

You didn't do it? You were off duty?

Mr. Boyd.

I wasn't off duty, but I just wasn't at the office at that time.

Mr. Ball.

You don't think you saw him again?

Mr. Boyd.

I don't believe so.

Mr. Ball.

What about November 24?

Mr. Boyd.

I worked late on the night of the 23d so I wouldn't have to come back early the next morning.

Mr. Ball.

Then, you were with him on the 24th?

Mr. Boyd.

I wasn't with him on the 24th--I was watching on the TV at home I wasn't at home I was out at my mother-in-law's at Irving, Tex. and I called Lieutenant Baker right after I learned about Oswald.

Mr. Ball.

I Want to ask you a question about Oswald's appearance when you first saw him. Did he have any marks on his face?

Mr. Boyd.

He had one markup---I believe it was on his left eye---the thing that I noticed or was noticeable. And I asked him where he got that and he said, "Well, I struck an officer and he struck me back." He said, "Which he should have done."

Mr. Ball.

Did he say "He should have done that?" Did Oswald say that?
