(Testimony of Robert Studebaker Lee)

Mr. Studebaker.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
Now, you outlined that before you took the picture, did you?
Mr. Studebaker.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
And that is the outline shown in this picture?
Mr. Studebaker.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
Now, in Exhibit F, does that also show--did you attempt to show the diagram of the palm in Exhibit F; did you do that?
Mr. Studebaker.
No; could I?
Mr. Ball.
Did you?
Mr. Studebaker.
Did I do this?
Mr. Ball.
Yes.
Mr. Studebaker.
No.
Mr. Ball.
But, does that correspond with your opinion as to the direction of the hand, the position of the hand at the time the palm print was made?
Mr. Studebaker.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
There were no fingers shown in that print, just the palm print?
Mr. Studebaker.
No, sir; just the palm print.
Mr. Ball.
Now, do you have some more pictures there to show me?
Mr. Studebaker.
Well, I've got a bunch of them. I made this diagram of the whole sixth floor of that building. This isn't the original, and J. B. Hicks and I measured this thing and I drew the diagram.
Mr. Ball.
Now, did you find a two-wheeled truck up there?
Mr. Studebaker.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
And did you take a picture of it?
Mr. Studebaker.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
Let me see that one.
Mr. Studebaker.
All right---it has the Dr. Pepper bottle and the paper sack that was sitting there in the picture.
Mr. Ball.
Let me see that one.
Mr. Studebaker.
(Handed instrument to Counsel Ball. )
There are two different views of it--there's one and here's one. That was before anything was touched and before it was dusted. This is a shot--I believe that's in the third aisle and let's see what it is marked---it's the sixth floor of 411 Elm Street looking south and the third aisle from Houston Street on the south side of the building. That was taken looking directly into that---this is the sack with those chicken bones and all that mess was in there too.
Mr. Ball.
Is the sack shown there?
Mr. Studebaker.
Yes; it's a little ole brown sack--yes; it's right there.
Mr. Ball.
We will mark this as "Exhibit H," which is your No. 6.
(Instrument marked by the reporter as "Studebaker Exhibit H," for identification.)
Mr. Ball.
That's the sack, is that right?
Mr. Studebaker.
Yes.
Mr. Ball.
And it shows--it has some chicken bones in it?
Mr. Studebaker.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
Any chicken bones in any other place?
Mr. Studebaker.
No.
Mr. Ball.
None outside the sack?
Mr. Studebaker.
No; they were all inside the sack, wrapped up and put right back in. It had a little piece of Fritos in the sack, too.
Mr. Ball.
Then, we will have the next picture marked Exhibit I, which shows the Dr. Pepper bottle with the two-wheeler, is that right?
Mr. Studebaker.
Yes, sir.
(Instrument marked by the reporter as "Studebaker Exhibit I," for identification.)
Mr. Ball.
And that's your No. 7.
Mr. Studebaker.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
That's the third row over?
Mr. Studebaker.
That's the third aisle from Houston Street.
Mr. Ball.
That would be the third set of windows?
Mr. Studebaker.
That would be the third set of windows--it would be--one, two, three.
