Mr. Specter.

Mr. TOMLINSON. There was a stretcher about 2 feet from the wall already there.
(Indicating on drawing to which the witness referred.)
Mr. SPECTER. Now, you have just pointed to a drawing which you have made of this situation, have you not, while we were talking a few minutes before the court reporter started to take down your testimony?

Mr. Tomlinson.

Yes, sir.
Mr. SPECTER. Now, would you mark in ink with my pen the stretcher which you pushed off of the elevator?

Mr. Tomlinson.

I think that it was this one right here (indicating).
Mr. SPECTER. Will you draw the outline of it in ink and mark an "A" right in the center of that?
(Witness complied with request of Counsel Specter.)
Mr. SPECTER. Now, would you mark in ink the position of the stretcher which was already on the first floor?

Mr. Tomlinson.

This was the ground floor.
Mr. SPECTER. Pardon me, on the ground floor? Is there a different designation for the first floor?

Mr. Tomlinson.

Yes.

Mr. Specter.

Where is the first floor?

Mr. Tomlinson.

One above the ground. We have basement, ground, first, second, and third on that elevator.

Mr. Specter.

What floor was Governor Connally taken to, if you know?

Mr. TOMLINSON. He was on two, he was in the operating rooms up on two. That's our surgical suites up there.

Mr. Specter.

And what level is the emergency entrance of the hospital on?
Mr. TOMLINSON. Well, it's the ground floor---it's there at the back of the hospital, you see, it's built on the incline there.
Mr. SPECTER. And the elevator which you found in this area was on the ground floor?

Mr. Tomlinson.

The elevator?

Mr. Specter.

The stretcher.

Mr. Tomlinson.

Yes.

Mr. SPECTER. Will you mark with a "B" the stretcher which was present at the time you pushed stretcher "A" off of the elevator?
Mr. TOMLINSON. (Witness complied with the request of Counsel Specter.) I believe that's it.

Mr. Specter.

Now, what, if anything, did you later observe as to stretcher

Mr. TOMLINSON. Well, sir; I don't recall how long it had been exactly, but an intern or doctor, I didn't know which, came to use the men's room there in the elevator lobby.

Mr. Specter.

Where is the men's room located on this diagram?

Mr. Tomlinson.

It would be right there (indicating) beside the "B" stretcher.
Mr. SPECTER Would you draw in ink there the outline of that room in a general way?

Mr. Tomlinson.

Well, I really don't know.

Mr. Specter.

And would you mark that with the letter "C"?
(Witness complied with request of Counsel Specter.)

Mr. Specter.

That's fine. What happened when that gentleman came to use the men's room?
Mr. TOMLINSON. Well, he pushed the stretcher out from the wall to get in, and then when he came out he just walked off and didn't push the stretcher back up against the wall, so I pushed it out of the way where we would have clear area in front of the elevator.

Mr. Specter.

And where did you push it to?

Mr. Tomlinson.

I pushed it back up against the wall.

Mr. Specter.

What, if anything, happened then?
Mr. TOMLINSON, I bumped the wall and a spent cartridge or bullet rolled out that apparently had been lodged under the edge of the mat.

Mr. Specter.

And that was from which stretcher?

Mr. Tomlinson.

I believe that it was "B".
