You have put an "O" on Exhibit 497.

What did you see or hear the officer say or do?

Mr. Truly. When I reached there, the officer had his gun pointing at Oswald. The officer turned this way and said, "This man work here?" And I said, "Yes."

Mr. Belin. And then what happened?

Mr. Truly. Then we left Lee Harvey Oswald immediately and continued to run up the stairways until we reached the fifth floor.

Mr. Belin. All right.

Let me ask you this now. How far was the officer's gun from Lee Harvey Oswald when he asked the question?

Mr. Truly. It would be hard for me to say, but it seemed to me like it was almost touching him.

Mr. Belin. What portion of his body?

Mr. Truly. Towards the middle portion of his body.
