Mr. Smart.

A single key.

Mr. Griffin.

Was this--where was this?

Mr. Smart.

Just laying in the floor of the glove compartment.

Mr. Griffin.

Was it under some papers or anything like that?

Mr. Smart.

No, sir; wasn't much stuff in the glove compartment.

Mr. Griffin.

Was there anything else in the glove compartment besides the key and the wallet?

Mr. Smart.

I remember looking, but I remember there was' nothing of importance that would have any bearing on anything. There was something there, not much, though.

Mr. Griffin.

Was the key on top and exposed?

Mr. Smart.

No. The billfold was on top and the key was laying over on the side.

Mr. Griffin.

I see.

Mr. Smart.

Just a lone key, a General Motors key.

Mr. Griffin.

I see. Did it appear there had been any effort to conceal it?

Mr. Smart.

No, sir.

Mr. Griffin.

Now, after you searched the glove compartment, what did you do? What did you search after the glove compartment?

Mr. Smart.

Well, I sat down in the front seat to try this key, and I put my hand down on these papers, and that is when I felt the dog. The dog raised up. It didn't fit the ignition keys, I mean the ignition switch, so I knew it was a General Motors key, and I owned an Oldsmobile, and it looked like it might be a trunk key, and I tried it, and it worked.

Mr. Griffin.

Now, up to this point, you hadn't searched the interior of the car, nothing but the glove comparment?

Mr. Smart.

No, sir; nothing but just look over.

Mr. Griffin.

Now, when you took this key, you were able to open the trunk, weren't you?

Mr. Smart.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Griffin.

What did you see when you opened that trunk?

Mr. Smart.

Well, some paper bags and some bank sacks, maybe one bank sack, and just full of junk, almost full of junk, except there was a set of keys laying fight down in the open.

Mr. Griffin.

Now, was this a set of keys?

Mr. Smart.

Well, it was a bunch of keys.

Mr. Griffin.

Were they on a ring?

Mr. Smart.

A ring or something to hold them together; I don't remember.

Mr. Griffin.

How many keys would you say were on this?

Mr. Smart.

Oh, roughly four or five.

Mr. Griffin.

Now, were there any keys that looked like they might be keys to a house or door?

Mr. Smart.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Griffin.

And how many keys on there appeared that they would be automobile keys?

Mr. Smart.

I don't remember now. I can tell that the other key, you know, they were shaped a little different, one of them was the ignition key, and I tried it, and it worked.

Mr. Griffin.

Now, if you were to see these keys, do you think that you would recognize them?

Mr. Smart.

Yes, sir; I think so.

Mr. Griffin.

Where did you see the keys in the car, in the trunk of the car?

Mr. Smart.

Laying right in the floorbeard of the trunk.

Mr. Griffin.

Near the front?

Mr. Smart.

Near the front.

Mr. Griffin.

Exposed to view?

Mr. Smart.

Right.

Mr. Griffin.

Where were they in relationship to the paper sacks and the money bags?

Mr. Smart.

To the right. The paper bags were more in the back. He had two or three boxes of pictures of girls, and things like that, that we just
