(Testimony of Clyde A. Haygood)

Mr. Belin.
Anything else?
Mr. HAYGOOD. That is about all.
Mr. BELIN. Did you search the building on the sixth floor or not?
Mr. HAYGOOD. Yes.
Mr. Belin.
Were you there when they found the rifle?

Mr. HAYGOOD. Yes.
Mr. Belin.
Were you there when they found the shells?
Mr. HAYGOOD. Yes.
Mr. BELIN. Where were you when the shells were found?
Mr. Haygood.
I was on the sixth floor when the shells were found. I was still on the sixth when they found the rifle on the fifth.
Mr. BELIN. On the fifth?
Mr. Haygood.
Sixth floor, rather, I am sorry.
Mr. Belin.
Where on the sixth floor were you when the shells were found?

Mr. HAYGOOD. I don't recall just exactly where it was at. It was on the floor though. It was just a big open floor.
Mr. Belin.
Do you mean they were somewhere on that open floor?
Mr. HAYGOOD. Yes.
Mr. BELIN. Did you hear someone say they have shells, something like that?
Mr. HAYGOOD. Yes.
Mr. BELIN. Do you remember who that was?
Mr. HAYGOOD. No; I don't.
Mr. BELIN. What did you do then?
Mr. Haygood.
Went up to another location there.
Mr. Belin.
You saw some shells there?
Mr. Haygood.
Yes.
Mr. Belin.
Where did you see them?
Mr. Haygood.
They were there under the window.
Mr. Belin.
Which window?
Mr. Haygood.
On the southeast corner.
Mr. Belin.
South side or east side?
Mr. Haygood.
On the southeast corner facing south.
Mr. Belin.
See any paper bags or anything around there?
Mr. Haygood.
Yes; there was a lunch bag there. You could call it a lunch bag.
Mr. Ball.
Where was that?
Mr. Haygood.
There at the same location where the shells were.
Mr. Belin.
Was there a coke bottle or anything with it?
Mr. Haygood.
Dr. Pepper bottle.
Mr. BELIN. See any long bags which would be a foot or foot and a half or more long?
Mr. Haygood.
Yes; just a plain brown paper bag with tape in the corner.
Mr. Belin.
What tape?

Mr. HAYGOOD. Yes; there was just brown paper tape on it. Just a brown paper bag with paper tape. It had been taped up.
Mr. Belin.
How long was that, if you can remember?
Mr. Haygood.
The exact length, I couldn't say. It was approximately rifle length.
Mr. BELIN. Would this have been right under the window, or to the east or west of the window, if you remember?
Mr. HAYGOOD. As I remember, it was directly in the corner, in the southeast corner.
Mr. BELIN. Well, as you remember, was the window directly in the southeast corner, or was the window a little bit to the west of that corner, if you remember?
Mr. HAYGOOD. The window at that location faces south, on the southeast corner.
Mr. Belin.
About how far from the east corner of the building is the window?

Mr. HAYGOOD. Well, it is just approximately like that, and then the corner here. Like the window would be there, and then it would be a corner.
Mr. Belin.
As far as the window in this room from that corner [indicating in room]?
