Mr. Boyd.

I came to work at 9 o'clock. Is it all right for me to go by this?

Mr. Ball.

I see you have there a report that is entitled "Report on Officer's Duty in Regard to the President's Murder, R. M. Sims. No. 629, and E. L. Boyd, No, 840."

Mr. Boyd.

Yes; we are partners.

Mr. Ball.

Did you prepare that report yourself?

Mr. Boyd.

He and I together prepared it.

Mr. Ball.

When did you prepare it?

Mr. Boyd.

Let me see---the last part of November---I'm not sure of the date.

Mr. Ball.

Was it within a week after the events took place that are recorded there?

Mr. Boyd.

I would say so; yes.

Mr. Ball.

You dictated it to a secretary?

Mr. Boyd.

Well, I wrote it out in longhand and carried it to the secretary and she typed it up.

Mr. Ball.

It was written out in your longhand?

Mr. Boyd.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Ball.

Do you have those longhand notes?

Mr. Boyd.

No, sir; I do not.

Mr. Ball.

This report has already been attached to Officer Sims' deposition as Exhibit A, so we have read it.

Mr. Boyd.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Ball.

During the course of your work, did you make notes of what you were doing in a notebook?

Mr. Boyd.

Well, I made notes, and I believe I had a notebook.

Mr. Ball.

Did you make it a habit of carrying a notebook with you?

Mr. Boyd.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Ball.

When you work?

Mr. Boyd.

Yes.

Mr. Ball.

And you just jot things down as they occur?

Mr. Boyd.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Ball.

Do you have that notebook with you?

Mr. Boyd.

No; I do not.

Mr. Ball.

Do you know where it is?

Mr. Boyd.

No, sir; right offhand, I don't know where it is. Part of the time, you know, I just took a sheet of paper and put down the particular times, you know, and after I fixed this--I don't recall what I did with it. I may have torn it up.

Mr. Ball.

You didn't have a regular notebook that you kept with you at all times?

Mr. Boyd.

I had a regular notebook, but I didn't put everything in it, I'm sure.

Mr. Ball.

This notebook that you had on November 22, 1963, have anything in it with respect to what you did on the 22d and the 23d of November?

Mr. Boyd.

Of 1963---I don't recall if I have these showups in there or not--it seems like I did.

Mr. Ball.

Do you have it with you?

Mr. Boyd.

No; I do not.

Mr. Ball.

Can you get it for me?

Mr. Boyd.

I probably could if I have it.

Mr. Ball.

Will you look it up?

Mr. Boyd.

I will look for it.

Mr. Ball.

I'll be down to the police department tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock and will you look it up between now and then and then let me see it if you still have it?

Mr. Boyd.

All right.

Mr. Ball.

I'll be up there in your department--near Captain Fritz' office.

Mr. Boyd.

What time---at 10 o'clock?

Mr. Ball.

At 10 o'clock in the morning.

Mr. Boyd.

I'll be there---I come on at 10.

Mr. Ball.

You come on at 10?

Mr. Boyd.

Yes.

Mr. Ball.

Then, I'll see you in the morning.
