Mr. Martin. I was assigned to ride on the left-hand rear side of President Kennedy.
Mr. Ball. And were you riding alone there, or was another officer riding with you?
Mr. Martin. There was another officer riding with me, B. W. Hargis.
Mr. Ball. He was parallel to you on another motorcycle?
Mr. Martin. Yes, sir; we were——
Mr. Ball. Two motorcycles abreast?
Mr. Martin. Yes.
Mr. Ball. As you turned onto Houston from Main, can you tell me about the speed of the President's car?
Mr. Martin. My estimation would be 4 to 5 miles an hour when we made the turn onto Elm Street from Houston.
Mr. Ball. From Houston?
