Mr. Holmes. Harry D. Holmes.
Mr. Liebeler. You are the chief postal inspector?
Mr. Holmes. No; it is just postal inspector.
Mr. Liebeler. Stationed with the post office here in Dallas; is that correct?
Mr. Holmes. Yes, sir.
Mr. Liebeler. I just have a few questions that I wanted to ask you that have come up since we took your testimony the last time. One of the things I would like to know about, if you have any information on it, is how long it ordinarily takes a parcel post shipment to come to Dallas from Chicago.
Mr. Holmes. It would depend on the time of day it was mailed, and whether it was mailed just prior to the next most expeditious dispatch. But I would say certainly not over, well, it would be in Dallas the next day. But whether it would get to a box—that's right, it would be available at his box—should be the next day.
Mr. Liebeler. Of course, this question relates specifically to the shipment of the rifle.
Mr. Holmes. That's right.
Mr. Liebeler. Shipped from Chicago and addressed to Mr. Hidell at Post Office Box 2915 here in Dallas, and you say that it generally would have been available at the post office here in Dallas the day following its delivery to the post office in Chicago?
