Mr. Ball. Now, at that time you were standing behind the screen, were you?
Mr. Hawkins. No; we had walked out onto the stage itself and could see the people sitting in the show—the house lights had been turned on—the show was still going on, but we did walk out onto the stage.
Mr. Ball. And did you later learn that the man's name was Brewer?
Mr. Hawkins. The man whom I had been talking to?
Mr. Ball. Yes; the shoe salesman.
Mr. Hawkins. I don't remember what his name is, but I think he did identify himself and we did have his name.
Mr. Ball. Were you armed?
Mr. Hawkins. Yes, sir; I was.
Mr. Ball. With what?
Mr. Hawkins. I had my Service .38 revolver.
