Mr. Belin. Sometime on November 22d did you go to the southeast corner of the building?
Mr. Truly. Yes, sir.
Mr. Belin. Did you notice anything particularly about the books that were in the southeast corner?
Mr. Truly. I didn't at that time—with the exception of a few cartons that were moved. But I did not know any pattern that the boys used in putting these cartons up there. They were just piled up there more or less at that time.
Mr. Belin. Well, handing you what has been marked as Exhibit 503, which is a picture, does this appear to portray the southeast corner of the sixth floor as you saw it on November 22d?
Mr. Truly. Yes, sir.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 503 for identification.)
Mr. Belin. Now, I notice some rows of books along the east wall. Did those books go all the way to the corner or not?
Mr. Truly. They did not in front of the window extend very much in height, but they did go all the way on the floor to the corner of the building.
Mr. Belin. Was this prior to November 22d?
