Mr. Smart.

That is right.

Mr. Griffin.

Now, let me ask you if you have any questions about what we are doing here?

Mr. Smart.

No; I think I understand.

Mr. Griffin.

Let me swear you in, then. If you will, will you raise your right hand? Do you solemnly swear that the testimony you are about to give is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but but truth?

Mr. Smart.

I do.

Mr. Griffin.

Mr. Griffin.

How long have you been with the police department?

Mr. Smart.

No, sir.

Mr. Griffin.

Other than me?

Mr. Smart.

No, sir.

Mr. Griffin.

And have I interviewed you before taking your deposition here?

Mr. Smart.

No, sir.

Mr. Griffin.

All right. I am going to mark here for identification purposes a copy of an interview that was held with you by Special Agents Bookhout and Myers, [spelling] M-y-e-r-s, and that is Bookhout [spelling], B-o-o-k-h-o-u-t, of the Federal Bureau of Investigation on November 25, 1963. I am going to mark that, "Dallas, Texas, Lietenant Smart, 3-25-64, Exhibit 5021." I am going to hand it to you and ask you if you have had a chance to read that over?

Mr. Smart.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Griffin.

Now, are there any additions or corrections that you would care to make in that?

Mr. Smart.

No. I told it to them just as I saw and heard it.

Mr. Griffin.

Now, did you file a report of your own activities with the police department?

Mr. Smart.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Griffin.

I wonder if you would be good enough to provide us with a copy of that. You think, after this interview is over, you could get a copy of it and provide it to us?

Mr. Smart.

Could I?

Mr. Griffin.

Yes.

Mr. Smart.

You say could I?

Mr. Griffin.

Yes.

Mr. Smart.

I think so. I don't have it in my possession.

Mr. Griffin.

We have asked everybody else, and there is no problem on that.

Mr. Smart.

Yes I am sure they will.

Mr. Griffin.

Mr. Smart.

Wait a minute. November 22?

Mr. Griffin.

Mr. Smart.

No, sir.

Mr. Griffin.

Mr. Smart.

Yes, sir.
