(Testimony of Mrs. Helen Markham)

Mr. Ball.
Make a mark and put an arrow. That was the direction he was walking?
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
The police car had not come into sight yet?
Mrs. Markham.
That is right.
Mr. Ball.
Put an X where the police car was when you first saw it, put an X there and we will mark that B. Now, after the shooting, where was the man when you looked at him?
Mrs. Markham.
He turned and came back this way.
Mr. Ball.
Where did he stand and look at you?
Mrs. Markham.
Right here.
Mr. Ball.
Put a mark there. We will mark that C. Where were you standing when he was looking at you?
Mrs. Markham.
The same position.
Mr. Ball.
The same position as the girl shown on this picture?
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
Is that your picture?
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
That is you there in that picture?
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
Did you stand there for the photographer to show him where you were standing?
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
I would like to offer into evidence the diagram in this book, together with the picture which illustrates the diagram.
The Chairman.
Under what numbers?
Mr. Ball.
As 523, which is the diagram, and 524, which is the picture.
The Chairman.
They may be admitted.
(The documents identified as Commission Exhibits Nos. 521-524 were received in evidence.)
Mr. Ball.
You went out there in picture number 3. Now, Mr. Dulles, I think this will explain it.
Mr. Dulles.
Yes, Mr. Ball.
Mr. Ball.
I have some other pictures here that might illustrate. Do you recognize this?
Mrs. Markham.
Yes.
Mr. Ball.
You were here the time the picture was taken?
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
You told the parties where to put the squad car?
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
Does this show the place where the police car was when this happened?
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
The place at the arrow?
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
It shows a corner.
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
On the picture make a mark where the man was when he came back and looked at you.
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir. He was a little behind this.
Mr. Ball.
Just make an X there in general.
Mrs. Markham.
That is supposed to be on the sidewalk.
Mr. Ball.
I would like to have this marked as Commission Exhibit 525. The X marks the position of the man who did the shooting on the corner after the shooting, and the arrow points to the squad car. Here is another picture marked 4 in this book which I will mark as Commission Exhibit 526. Is that you in the picture?
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
You went out there the day the picture was taken?
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
Is that where you were standing?
Mrs. Markham.
Yes, sir.
