Mr. Ball. Don Braswell and John Abel.

Mr. Fritz. No, sir; that would be done by my officers.

Mr. Ball. And you don't think you were present at that?

Mr. Fritz. No, sir; I don't believe so.

Mr. Ball. Did you ever ask him if he had kept a rifle in the garage at Irving?

Mr. Fritz. Yes, sir; I did. I asked him and I asked him if he had brought one from New Orleans. He said he didn't.

Mr. Ball. He did not.

Mr. Fritz. That is right.

I told him the people at the Paine residence said he did have a rifle out there, and he kept it out there and he kept it wrapped in a blanket and he said that wasn't true.

Mr. Ball. Do you remember when that was that you asked him?
