Mr. Specter.

Is it customarily your Job to put it back on the elevator?

Mr. JIMISON. Yes; it is.
Mr. SPECTER. Did you ever take it down and put it in order yourself?
Mr. JIMISON. No, sir; we never carry it down ourselves. The fact is---the purpose is---we have enough to do up there, and we have men up there to take care of that.
Mr. SPECTER. Somebody else is supposed to take the elevator up there? Is that right?

Mr. Jimison.

One of them---we put it on the elevator, then it becomes the responsibility of the emergency room.
Mr. SPECTER. Was there any other stretcher placed on that elevator later that day?

Mr. Jimison.

Not during my shift.
Mr. SPECTER. Are you the only man who would put the stretcher on the elevator if there were one?

Mr. Jimison.

No, I is not, but might near--I could might near see of anybody--from where the elevator sits from where the halls were--I could might near see all of the stretchers put on there.
Mr. SPECTER. If a stretcher was put on there it would have to be in your presence?

Mr. Jimison.

I would have had to be hid where I wouldn't be able to see it.
Mr. SPECTER What time did you put the stretcher from Governor Connally on the elevator?

Mr. Jimison.

I'm not too sure I know of the time. I really don't know exactly the time.
Mr. SPECTER Well, about how long after he was taken into the operating room, did you?

Mr. Jimison.

It was lesser than 10 minutes before or after.

Mr. Specter.

What time did you get off that day?

Mr. Jimison.

3:30.
Mr. SPECTER. And you say there was no other stretcher placed on that elevator from the time you put Governor Connally's stretcher on until the end of the day ?

Mr. Jimison.

Until the end of my shift. You see, that's the emergency---- from the emergency that we had from that time that he was brought up until I was relieved from duty that afternoon.

Mr. Specter.

Did you notice any bullets on the stretcher?

Mr. Jimison.

I never noticed any at all.

Mr. Specter.

Did I sit down and tall with you for a few minutes before the court reporter came in to take this all down here today?

Mr. Jimison.

Yes.

Mr. Specter.

And have I asked you questions and have you given me answers just like in our short discussion before this deposition started?

Mr. Jimison.

(No response.)

Mr. Specter.

Did you and I talk about the same things we have been talking about since. the court reporter came in?

Mr. Jimison.

Yes.

Mr. Specter.

Have you ever been talked to by any other person from the Federal Government?

Mr. Jimison.

Yes, I have.

Mr. Specter.

And who was that?

Mr. JIMISON. I don't remember his name, but shortly after that happened---I don't know, as I say, it was the Federal Government.
Mr. SPECTER. What branch was he from?
Mr. JIMISON. I thought he was from the Secret Service.
Mr. SPECTER. How many times did you talk to somebody from the Secret Service.
Mr. JIMISON. Well, I talked to him once; he just talked to me once.
Mr. SPECTER. And what about?
Mr. JIMISON. The same thing.
Mr. SPECTER. And did you ever talk to anybody else about this fact?
Mr. JIMISON. No.
