I left there in November 1962.

Mr. Hubert.

What were the circumstances under which you left?

Mr. Daniels.

Let me see just how I can put this--well, I resigned, of course, I was asked to resign because of some conflicts I had with a tenant living in one of my apartments.

Mr. Hubert.

That is to say, you rented out some property to a tenant and you had some difficulty with the tenant ?

Mr. Daniels.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

Now, I know you have already made a statement to the FBI, as a matter of fact, I think you have made two statements, one to the State police I would now just like for you to tell us what you know of entry of Jack Ruby into the basement?

Mr. Daniels.

Well, actually, I don't feel like I really know anything, but I saw a guy go in the basement, but I don't think it was Ruby.

Mr. Hubert.

Let's start off with that morning, of course, you knew that the President had been killed ?

Mr. Daniels.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

And as I understand, you were riding in your own car over towards the place where he was killed ?

Mr. Daniels.

Yes, I was going out Main Street. I was going--let's see, that was Sunday morning and I was going down Main Street to look at the spot where the President had been assassinated and as I drove by the city hall, I noticed a bunch of people standing around and noticed this officer standing in the entrance to the basement.

Mr. Hubert.

On Main Street?

Mr. Daniels.

Yes; on Main Street, and so I made the block and turned around and came back and parked.

Mr. Hubert.

Where did you park?

Mr. Daniels.

Pardon?

Mr. Hubert.

Where did you park?
