Mrs. Markham.

Yes, I saw the taxicab driver.

Mr. Ball.

Where was the taxicab?

Mrs. Markham.

Parked on Patton.

Mr. Ball.

On Patton?

Mrs. Markham.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Ball.

Did you see the man later, did you see him before the shooting?

Mrs. Markham.

Yes, he was sitting in his cab.

Mr. Ball.

He was. Then you saw him afterward, didn't you?

Mrs. Markham.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Ball.

Those are all the questions I have of this witness. Do you have something additional?

Mrs. Markham.

Believe me, it was just like--

Mr. Dulles.

I believe Mr. Ford would like to have the witness repeat what she saw the man, now known as Oswald, do after the shooting. Will you just repeat that for Congressman Ford?

Mrs. Markham.

After he shot the policeman--

Mr. Dulles.

After he shot the policeman.

Mrs. Markham.

After he shot the policeman he turned around, came back around toward Patton Street. He wasn't he didn't seem to be in a no hurry. I thought he hadn't done anything, and he was fooling with his gun in his hands, and he seen me, and he stops.

Mr. Dulles.

He stopped?

Mrs. Markham.

When he saw me. That is the reason we were looking at each other.

Mr. Dulles.

He hadn't seen you before so far as you could tell?

Mrs. Markham.

I put my hands over my face and closed my eyes, because I knew he was going to kill me. I couldn't scream, I couldn't holler. I froze.

Mr. Dulles.

I think you testified about that then he began to run slowly.

Mrs. Markham.

Then-

Mr. Dulles.

Was that after he saw you?

Mrs. Markham.

Yes; after I put my hands up, and when I had opened my fingers and my eyes and slowly pulled them down, he was trotting off.

Mr. Dulles.

Trotting off?

Mrs. Markham.

Yes, sir. He wasn't out of sight when I started running to this police car. He was not out of sight.

Mr. Dulles.

You didn't see which way he turned at the end of this run?

Mrs. Markham.

No; he cut across like this, across Patton, and went out like that.

Mr. Dulles.

Like this means to the right or to the left?

Mrs. Markham.

It means to the right, sir.

Mr. Belin.

To his right, to the man's right, as he was running?

Mrs. Markham.

He ran back, turned and came back down 10th to Patton Street. He cut across Patton Street like this.

Mr. Belin.

Heading toward what street?

Mrs. Markham.

Toward Jefferson; yes, sir. Then he was still in sight when I began to scream and holler and run to this police car, well, to Mr. Tippit.

Mr. Dulles.

Thank you.

Mr. Ball.

Are there any more questions? You can be excused, Mrs. Markham.

Mr. Dulles.

Do you have any questions you would like to ask, Mr. Attorney General?

Mr. Carr.

No; I have not.

Mr. Dulles.

Could you wait for just a moment. We are sorry to detain you. There is something that might come up with the next witness, and we might wish to ask you another question. I do not think we will. We are very grateful to you, Mrs. Markham.

Mr. Ball.

Exhibit previously marked "533," which is the squad car, Tippit, showing the street and blood spot in the street, I would like to have marked as "Exhibit 527." It was marked by mistake.

Mr. Dulles.

Is that our last exhibit?

Mr. Ball.

That is our last exhibit, 527 is our last exhibit now.
(The item identified as Commission Exhibit No. 527 was received in evidence.)
