Mr. Greer. Houston to Elm Street.
Mr. Specter. Now, as you were proceeding down Main Street, which I will add is in a generally westerly direction, what is your best estimate of your speed as you turned the corner right onto Houston Street?
Mr. Greer. I would estimate the speed was somewhere between 12 to 15 miles per hour, coming through there.
Mr. Specter. And as you made that right-hand turn onto Houston Street, what was the composition of the crowds along the way, if any?
Mr. Greer. On Main Street there were very, very large crowds. They were almost close up against the automobile. Sometimes the motorcycles on the sides could not even get through. They were real close to us. And very large crowds. And when we got around on Houston Street, the crowds thinned out quite a lot. My recollection here is that there wasn't too many people on Elm Street—a few scattered people at that point.
Mr. Specter. And your finger indicated there the position near the Texas School Depository Building?
Mr. Greer. Yes, sir.
Mr. Specter. Now, you have described motorcycles. How many were present with the President's automobile, if any?
Mr. Greer. I could not tell the exact amount of motorcycles that were escorting us at that time. We usually do have them on the two front fenders and two rear fenders, and some probably preceding that, and some along the motorcade behind us. I could not tell you exactly how many there probably would be.
Mr. Specter. Do you recollect that there were some on this occasion, however?
