Mr. Ball.

in front of me and shaking shells from a pistol into his hand as he walked," this says here. "The man was walking in a normal direction and walked across the corner of my property towards Patton Street."
Did you ever tell anyone that you saw the man walking in a normal direction?

Mrs. Davis.

No; I showed them where it was at, and they done that.

Mr. Ball.

I see. He was walking--what direction?

Mrs. Davis.

I didn't know. And so they figured that out.

Mr. Ball.

He was walking towards what street?

Mrs. Davis.

He was going down Patton.

Mr. Ball.

Towards what street?

Mr. Davis.

Jefferson. And so they figured it out for me.

Mr. Ball.

However--when--did you see the man after he went around the corner of your house?

Mrs. Davis.

No, sir.

Representative Ford.

Did you see the taxicab parked on the corner?

Mrs. Davis.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Ball.

Let's go back to that afternoon, and you give your best memory of what the man looked like. Don't think of what anybody has told you or what has happened in between. Try to remember the vision you had of that man--the color of his hair, the size of his build and so forth.

Mrs. Davis.

You mean weight and like that?

Mr. Ball.

He was white, wasn't he?

Mrs. Davis.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Ball.

Light complexioned, or dark?

Mrs. Davis.

He was more light complected than he would have been dark.

Mr. Ball.

Color of his hair?

Mrs. Davis.

It was either dark brown or black. It was just dark hair.

Mr. Ball.

And the color of his clothes?

Mrs. Davis.

Well, I said he had on--he looked to me that he had on dark trousers, and it looked like a light colored shirt, with a dark coat over it.

Mr. Ball.

About what age would you say the man was?

Mrs. Davis.

I am not very good on that. I don't know. I would say he was about 23, 24.

Mr. Ball.

And what about his weight and height?

Mrs. Davis.

I--

Mr. Ball.

You have to be general, I know that.

Mr. Dulles.

Just your best recollection. If you haven't any, just tell us.

Mrs. Davis.

I just don't know.

Mr. Ball.

Was he fat or slender?

Mrs. Davis.

He was slender built, and not very heavy.

Mr. Ball.

Was he a tall man, or a real short man, or average?

Mrs. Davis.

Oh, he wasn't especially tall. I would say he was about medium height or a little taller. I mean he wasn't extra tall.

Mr. Ball.

Now, did you have some difficulty in identifying this No. 2 man in the showup when you saw him?

Mrs. Davis.

Well, they made us look at him a long time before they let us say anything.

Mr. Ball.

What about you? I am not talking about what you told them.

What was your reaction when you saw this man?

Mrs. Davis.

Well, I was pretty sure it was the same man I saw. When they made him turn sideways, I was positive that was the one I seen.

Mr. Ball.

I have no further questions.

Mr. Belin.

Thank you, Mrs. Davis.

Mr. Dulles.

Did your sister-in-law go with you to the lineup?

Mrs. Davis.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Dulles.

Did she make an identification?

Mrs. Davis.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Dulles.

At the same time as you did?

Mrs. Davis.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Dulles.

Did you see her identification?

Mrs. Davis.

We didn't discuss it.
