(Testimony of Alfreadia Riggs)
Mr. Hubert.
What I mean is that on Saturday, the day before this day, did you work your regular hours or----
Mr. Riggs.
I'm trying to think, because we had quite a bit of work that weekend, because actually, we had quite a few people over in the other building. They sent different ones. Only time I remember is--that day I don't know whether I worked that night before then, because I had worked quite a bit on that weekend, too.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, for the purposes of identification, I'm going to mark a document which. purports to be a photostatic copy of a sign-in sheet.
Mr. Riggs.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
Of porters and maids at the city hall on November 24, 1963, as follows: "Dallas, Texas, April 1, 1964. Exhibit No. 5128, deposition of Alfreadia Riggs." I am signing my name, and then another document also purporting to be sign-in sheet for the city hall porters and maids, dated November 23, 1963, and I am marking that at the bottom, "Dallas, Texas, April 1, 1964. Exhibit 5128-A, Deposition of Alfreadia Riggs." I am signing my name on it. Now, I will ask you to look at this document that has been marked Exhibit 5128, and see if your name is on it in print, and if your handwriting is on that document?
Mr. Riggs.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
Is that your--next to your printed name is that your signature?
Mr. Riggs.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
And the two columns that appear, "Sign in 7 a.m.," "Sign out 5:30 p.m."--no, 3 p.m., is that your handwriting, too?
Mr. Riggs.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
Both of those?
Mr. Riggs.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, look at the document marked 5128-A. Next to your printed name I see A.R. those are your initials?
Mr. Riggs.
That's right.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, there is a sign-in 11 p.m., and a sign-out at 7 a.m. does that mean you went on duty at 11 o'clock on that Saturday night, and got off at 7 o'clock in the morning, Sunday, or does it mean you signed in at 11 o'clock on Friday night and got off at 7 o'clock on Saturday morning?
Mr. Riggs.
This, I believe I worked that night.
Mr. Hubert.
Which night?
Mr. Riggs.
When it says--Saturday, 23.
Mr. Hubert.
Until Sunday morning?
Mr. Riggs.
Until Sunday morning. That is when I was signing out, and I worked right on through that Sunday.
Mr. Hubert.
In other words, you didn't go home at all?
Mr. Riggs.
No, sir; not until 3 p.m.
Mr. Hubert.
So, what it amounts to is that you started at 11 o'clock Saturday night and carried clean on through until that Sunday, but you signed in and signed out twice?
Mr. Riggs.
We usually have to do that on two different sheets.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, you were assigned particularly to what location?
Mr. Riggs.
Well, just 11--from 11 to 7, it was on the elevators.
Mr. Hubert.
Yes.
Mr. Riggs.
From 11 o'clock that night until 7 o'clock the next morning I was on the elevators, and then on this other deal, from 7 until 3 was cleaning up the Police and Courts Building.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, when you got off the elevator at 7 o'clock, who relieved you?
Mr. Riggs.
McKinzie, I believe.
Mr. Hubert.
Louis McKinzie?
Mr. Riggs.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
When did you finish cleaning up the police building?
Mr. Riggs.
Well, we never did finish cleaning it up, because after the incident came about----
Mr. Hubert.
After Oswald was shot, you mean?
Mr. Riggs.
There was so much disturbance in the halls, actually, I was never able to get back over there in the building to clean it up.
