Mr. REILLY. I went over to Mr. Holland's shop and then we went up there together to see the parade.

What is Mr. Holland's occupation?

He is a signal supervisor.

Mr. Reilly.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
Then, where did you go?
Mr. Reilly.
We taken a walk up through the overpass right there.
Mr. Ball.
Where did you stand on the overpass?
Mr. Reilly.
Well, we went over to the railing and stood there.
Mr. BALL. And with reference to what streets---were you standing over Elm. over Main, or over Commerce?

Well, you mean when this parade came down?

Yes.
Mr. Reilly.
We were between them.
Mr. Ball.
Between what streets?
Mr. Reilly.
Elm and Main.
Mr. BALL. I have a map here which has been used in the deposition of another witness, but it gives some idea of the location there--this is north--this shows the corner of Elm and Houston Streets.
Mr. Reilly.
Yes, sir.

Mr. BALL. And it shows where Elm turns and goes under the railroad, the overpass.
Mr. Reilly.
We were between the two.
Mr. Ball.
Will you take this pen and this is Elm and here is Main, and make a mark and show me where you were standing?
Mr. Reilly.
This is the overpass right here?
Mr. Ball.
Yes; this is the overpass.
Mr. Reilly.
We was between these two streets--there was big banisters up there and it was about like that, I guess.
Mr. Ball.
We will put a mark there.

Mr. REILLY. (The witness Reilly marked the instrument as requested by Counsel Ball.)

Mr. REILLY. Yes.
Mr. BALL. Who was standing there with you?
Mr. REILLY. I believe it was Mr. Dodd and Skinney.
