But Captain Fritz is a quiet and deliberate sort of individual and said, "Don't worry about the men. If you got any more questions, ask him."
Mr. Belin. Who would be the people knocking and tapping on the window and would be impatient?
Mr. Holmes. It was Chief Curry, and I didn't recognize the others, but there were people who later took him on downstairs, so they were waiting. They wanted to make this transfer, is what it was. In fact, the captain mentioned, he said, "We are going to have a little while to talk. I don't know how long, because they want to effect this transfer."
And everybody assumed that that was why they were getting impatient outside about, they wanted to go ahead and complete the transfer.
Mr. Belin. Were there glass walls on Captain Fritz' office?
Mr. Holmes. Yes; with venetian blinds.
Mr. Belin. Were the venetian blinds closed?
Mr. Holmes. They were closed, but you could see around the edges and through and every once in a while someone would lift a blind, and once in a while they would crack the door and look in.
Mr. Belin. Were the venetian blinds inside or outside, or do you know?
Mr. Holmes. I don't know, to tell you the truth.
