Mr. Reynolds.

Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

You were in no way, if I understand it correctly then, properly identified as anyone who had told the authorities that this man that was going down the street was the same man as Lee Harvey Oswald, is that correct?

Mr. Reynolds.

Well, yes and no. When it happened, and after I seen--and you probably know what I did-- after I saw the man on the corner of Patton and Jefferson, I followed him up the street behind the service station and lost him I went back there and looked up and down the alley and didn't see him, and looked through the cars and still didn't see him.
Then the police got there, and they took my name. While they were taking my name, some television camera got me, and I was on television, I am sure nationwide. Then some man that I worked with wanted to be big time, I guess, so he called some radio station and told them what I had done, and they recorded that and ran it over and over and over again over the radio station. And other than that, no.

Mr. Liebeler.

. Well, what was it that they said you had done? All you had done was try to follow this man and he got away from you?

Mr. Reynolds.

And he got away.

Mr. Liebeler.

Then you went back and you looked around for him around the car lot in the area and you weren't able to find him?

Mr. Reynolds.

I looked through the parking lot for him after. See, when he went behind the service station, I was right across the street, and when he ducked behind, I ran across the street and asked this man which way he went and they told me the man had gone to the back. And I ran back there and looked up and down the alley right then and didn't see him, and I looked under the cars, and I assumed that he was still hiding there.

Mr. Liebeler.

In the parking lot?

Mr. Reynolds.

Even to this day I assume that he was.

Mr. Liebeler.

Where was this parking lot located now?

Mr. Reynolds.

It would be at the back of the Texaco station that is on the corner of Crawford and Jefferson where they found his coat.

Mr. Liebeler.

They found his coat in the parking lot?

Mr. Reynolds.

They found his coat there.

Mr. Liebeler.

So that he had apparently gone through the parking lot?

Mr. Reynolds.

Oh, yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

And gone down the alley or something back to Jefferson Street?

Mr. Reynolds.

Yes. When the police got there, and they were all there, I was trying to assure them that he was still there close. This was all a bunch of confusion. They didn't know what was going on. And they got word that he was down at a library which was about 3 blocks down the street on the opposite side of the street.

Mr. Liebeler.

Down Jefferson?

Mr. Reynolds.

Down Jefferson. And every one of them left to go there. So when they left, well, I did too, and I didn't know this man had shot a policeman. I wouldn't probably be near as brave if I had known that. The next time, I guarantee, I won't be as brave.

Mr. Liebeler.

No; I can't say that I blame you, although we don't know there is any connection. But we would certainly like to find it, if there is.

Mr. Reynolds.

There is no connection that you can prove now.

Mr. Liebeler.

Let's come to that a little bit at a time.

Mr. Reynolds.

Okay.

Mr. Liebeler.

When you were on television, what was shown is that you were talking to the policeman?

Mr. Reynolds.

They were taking my name. No name was shown, was mentioned.

Mr. Liebeler.

They were just taking down your name?

Mr. Reynolds.

Just my name.

Mr. Liebeler.

When it was told on ,the radio about your involvement in it was it also made clear that you had not, in fact, directed--let me ask the question this way. Was it ever stated either on the television or the radio that you had directed the police to the Texas Theatre?
