For a little while until it was time for the President to come by, and then we left.

Mr. Belin.

Where did you go?

Mr. Edwards.

Sir?

Mr. Belin.

Where did you go? You say you left. Where did you go?

Mr. Edwards.

You mean left the office?

Mr. Belin.

Yes.

Mr. Edwards.

Down on--I get the streets mixed up. Let's see, it would be Houston.

Mr. Belin.

Houston?

Mr. EDWARDS. Yes; I guess it would be Houston across the street in the little park right across from the courthouse, straight across from, facing the Depository.

Mr. Belin.

Well, let me ask you this now.

Mr. Edwards.

That is Elm, I guess that is what it is. I guess that is Elm Street.

Mr. BELIN. When you used the word "Depository," what building do you mean?

Mr. Edwards.

Texas School Book Depository.

Mr. Belin.

Texas School Book Depository Building?

Mr. EDWARDS. That building is at the corner of Elm and Houston, isn't it? Houston comes this way?

Mr. Belin.

Well, Houston, I believe, runs in a north-south direction. Elm runs in a east-west direction. Would a map help you at all?

Mr. Edwards.

Yes.

Mr. Belin.

Let me see if I can get one for you here.
I am handing you a portion of a map. You see Houston Street here on this map?

Mr. Edwards.

Yes.
Mr. BELIN. And you see Elm Street running this way, and the arrow pointing north, so Houston runs north and south.

Mr. Edwards.

Where do you put the courthouse?

Mr. BELIN. The courthouse would be off this strip of map, but that is Elm and here is Houston. This little black square would be the Texas School Book Depository Building.

Mr. Edwards.

It would have to be Houston and Elm.

Mr. Belin.

Here is Elm going in the parkway here. Do you see that right there?

Mr. Edwards.

Yes.
Mr. BELIN. All right, Main Street would be running toward the bottom of the map?

Mr. Edwards.

Yes; it was here.
Mr. BELIN. You are putting your finger at the point which would be to the west of Houston Street and to the south of Elm as it goes into the parkway, is that right?
You see the arrow pointing northwest would be to your left on the map, and you are going to be west of Houston Street and south of Elm going in the parkway, is that correct?

Mr. Edwards.

Yes; I would be over here, right over here.
Mr. BELIN. Here is the parkway. Can you see it upside down here? Let's see if I can show you a picture.

Mr. Edwards.

I am sorry. I don't have a picture.

Mr. Belin.

Here is a map and on the map north .is shown with an arrow. You see it right here?

Mr. Edwards.

Yes.

Mr. Belin.

Mr. Edwards, have you now located yourself on this map?

Mr. Edwards.

Yes; I have.

Mr. Belin.

All right, where were you located?

Mr. Edwards.

I guess I would plant myself right there.
Mr. BELIN. You are planting yourself now at a spot which would be on the west side of Houston Street near that entrance of Elm Street into the parkway
