Mr. Hill. I wouldn't know, but I know they identified themselves to us as deputy sheriffs, and some more people knew them.
So we went into the building, and Captain Fritz and his men said they would start at the first floor and work up, and they asked several of us to go to the top floor and work down.
We went up to the seventh floor on the elevator and I believe the elevator ran to the sixth, and we cut around the stairway and got to seven and shook it down.
At this time there were the two deputy sheriffs and I and one uniformed officer up there.
Mr. Belin. You went to the top floor of the building?
Mr. Hill. Right.
Mr. Belin. Do you know whether or not the elevator went all the way up, or did you climb?
Mr. Hill. I think we climbed a flight of stairs. In fact, I am almost sure.
Mr. Belin. Do you think you climbed a flight of stairs because the elevator went no further?
Mr. Hill. I think it either went to fifth or sixth, but I am almost positive it didn't go to seventh. I may be wrong, but I didn't particularly take notice.
