Mr. Belin. Then what did you see happen?
Mr. Holmes. Then just people went from every direction hunting around the railroad yard and among the cars parked in the area. I saw a policeman rushing into the School Book Depository Building.
Mr. Belin. Was this a motorcycle policemen?
Mr. Holmes. I did definitely see motorcycle policemen, one of—one or two or three—with their white helmets, and these motorcycle uniforms rushed up in the crowd with drawn pistols. And I thought maybe they might have been shooting to frighten the people.
Mr. Belin. Where did the noise sound like it came from?
Mr. Holmes. It reverberated among the buildings and I couldn't tell you. It sounded like from the crowd over there.
Mr. Belin. Anything else happen that afternoon that you think is important insofar as the investigation of the assassination is concerned?
Mr. Holmes. I watched for hours from that vantage point up there with my binoculars, hoping I would see someone running across the railroad tracks, or maybe that I could get word to the police as to where they were, because it was like a birdseye view of the panorama of the whole area.
Mr. Belin. Did you see anyone run across the railroad track?
Mr. Holmes. No. I saw nothing suspicious and I am a trained suspicioner.
