Mr. Walthers. Yes, sir.
Mr. Liebeler. Were you acting in any official capacity at that time?
Mr. Walthers. I was a deputy sheriff—I was on duty and had stopped there with Mrs. Decker to watch the parade go by.
Mr. Liebeler. You didn't have any specific assignment in connection with the motorcade or the President or anything like that?
Mr. Walthers. No, sir.
Mr. Liebeler. The motorcade came down Main Street and made a wide turn into Houston Street and went back down Elm Street; isn't that right?
Mr. Walthers. Yes.
Mr. Liebeler. After the motorcade turned onto Houston Street, what did you do?
Mr. Walthers. After it turned onto Houston and most of the motorcade went by, I turned to talk to Mrs. Decker and asked her if she was ready to go back inside and I proceeded to help her back up the steps and then we heard the shots.
Mr. Liebeler. You actually were still standing over on Main Street around the corner from Houston Street when you heard the shots?
