(Testimony of Louis D. Miller Resumed)

Mr. Miller.
Juvenile bureau.
Mr. Griffin.
How long have you been in the juvenile bureau?
Mr. Miller.
Since October of last year.
Mr. Griffin.
And where were you before that?
Mr. Miller.
Radio patrol division.
Mr. Griffin.
All right. Whose platoon did you work on?
Mr. Miller.
The last platoon that I worked on was Captain Souter's.
Mr. Griffin.
Now, I understand that you were off duty on Friday, November 22, is that right, of last year?
Mr. Miller.
The best that I remember, yes, I was off the day the President was shot.
Mr. Griffin.
And how about the next day, Saturday; November the 23d, were you on duty or off duty that day?
Mr. Miller.
On Saturday, I should have worked. I don't remember specifically any particular incident that happened that day that would bring to my mind that I did work.
Mr. Griffin.
Well, is there any reason for you to think that you didn't work that day?
Mr. Miller.
No.
Mr. Griffin.
Do you have any records of any sort back at the police department or notes that you have maintained which would indicate whether or not you worked?
Mr. Miller.
There should be some, yes.
Mr. Griffin.
What sort of records would those be?
Mr. Miller.
Offenses that was assigned to me, prisoners handled.
Mr. Griffin.
I wonder if you could, when you return to the police department, if you could check to see if those records are available and provide copies of them to us, or if you can't make the copies, why if you will provide us with the originals, why we will make the copy and return the originals to you. Would you be willing to do that?
Mr. Miller.
If I could. I would have to look through things that I have in my locker, a place there, and see if I have any there that were assigned to me on that date, otherwise it would be next to impossible, and see what prisoners I did handle.
Mr. Griffin.
Are you supposed to make a report at the end of the day as to your activities?
Mr. Miller.
No.
Mr. Griffin.
Well, I don't want you--I am not asking you to go through that and see what prisoners you handled if you can't find it readily, but it would be easy to find some record of whether you were on duty at all, wouldn't it?
Mr. Miller.
It would be marked in the duty book.
Mr. Griffin.
All right. If you would, check that and let us know, and if you do have any notes that pertain to those days, I would appreciate that, also. All right. Now, do you have any recollection of when you first heard in any way that Lee Harvey Oswald might be moved to the Dallas County Jail?
Mr. Miller.
No; I don't remember when I heard it or how. I heard it.
Mr. Griffin.
Do you recall coming to work Sunday morning on the 24th?
Mr. Miller.
I remember being at work. As to the time that I came to work, no.
Mr. Griffin.
Do you remember what time you usually report to work?
Mr. Miller.
I usually get in the office sometime between 7 and 7:30 and some days earlier than that.
Mr. Griffin.
Do you have any reason to think you arrived any later than 7:30
Mr. Miller.
No; I don't think so.
Mr. Griffin.
On Sunday?
Mr. Miller.
I couldn't be definite on it because I don't remember.
Mr. Griffin.
Do you ride to work when you come, take public transportation, or do you drive?
Mr. Miller.
I drive.
Mr. Griffin.
And do you drive in alone or with somebody else?
Mr. Miller.
I drive in alone.
