Mr. Ball.

Mark it.
(Witness marked instrument referred to as requested by Counsel Ball.)

Mr. Ball.

Point out the row of ears where the jacket was found.

Mr. Westbrook.

Well, that, I don't believe I could do----

Mr. Ball.

Was it near the alley?

Mr. Westbrook.

It was near--but not this close it don't seem to me.

Mr. Ball.

Not as close as shown in the picture?
Mr. WESTBROOK, It don't seem to me I can't remember for sure.

Mr. Ball.

I offer this exhibit, Westbrook No. D.

Mr. Westbrook.

Now, I did, when I left this scene, I turned this jacket over to one of the officers and I went by that church, I think, and I think that would be on 10th Street.

Mr. Ball.

I show you Commission Exhibit 162, do you recognize that?

Mr. Westbrook.

That is exactly the jacket we found.

Mr. Ball.

That is the jacket you found?

Mr. Westbrook.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Ball.

And you turned it over to whom?

Mr. Westbrook.

Now, it was to this officer--that got the name.

Mr. Ball.

Does your report show the name of the officer?

Mr. Westbrook.

No, sir; it doesn't. When things like this happen--it was happening so fast you don't remember those things.

Mr. Ball.

Then, it was after that you went over to 10th and Patton?

Mr. Westbrook.

To 10th and Patton--yes, sir.

Mr. Ball.

And from there you went to the theatre?

Mr. Westbrook.

Yes; from there we went to the theatre, and I can't remember exactly how that I got back with Bob Barrett and Stringer, but anyway, we got together again--probably at 10th and Patton.

Mr. Ball.

Were you in the personnel office at a time that a gun was brought in?

Mr. Westbrook.

Yes, sir; it was brought to my office when it shouldn't have been.

Mr. Ball.

But it was brought to your office?

Mr. Westbrook.

Yes; it was.

Mr. Ball.

And it was marked by some officer?

Mr. Westbrook.

It was marked by Officer Jerry Hill and a couple or three more, and when they come in with the gun, I just went on down and told Captain Fritz that the gun was in my office and he sent a man up after it. I didn't take it down.

Mr. Ball.

Did you see McDonald mark it?

Mr. Westbrook.

He possibly could have he was in there.

Mr. Ball.

Did you See the .gun unloaded?

Mr. Westbrook.

No, sir; I didn't see it unloaded. When I saw it, the gun was laying on Mr. McGee's desk and the shells were out of it.

Mr. Ball.

Did you look at any of the shells?

Mr. Westbrook.

No, sir.

Mr. Ball.

Did you look the gun over?

Mr. Westbrook.

No, sir.

Mr. Ball.

Do you have any questions?

Mr. Ely.

Yes; I have one. Captain, you mentioned that you had left orders for somebody to take the names of everybody in the theatre, and you also stated you did not have this list; do you know who has it?

Mr. Westbrook.

No; possibly Lieutenant Cunningham will know, but I don't know who has the list.

Mr. Ely.

That's all.

Mr. Westbrook.

And I'm sorry that I'm so vague on names, but it's just--- the only reason that I knew Sergeant Stringer, I think, that day he worked with me.

Mr. Ball.

Do you have any questions?

Mr. Stern.

No, sir.

Mr. Ball.

I think that's all. Thank you very much, captain.

Mr. Westbrook.

Thank you, sir, Mr. Ball, it has been a pleasure.
