Mr. Ball. Oswald did make some statement, though?
Mr. Boyd. I believe he said something—yes, sir.
Mr. Ball. Did he ask for a lawyer?
Mr. Boyd. Well, let me see, he wanted to get in touch with a lawyer—I believe it was a lawyer by the name of Abt [spelling] A-b-t in New York City.
Mr. Ball. When did he say that? When did he tell you that?
Mr. Boyd. It was—either right before the first showup, or right after the first showup.
Mr. Ball. What did you tell him?
Mr. Boyd. Captain Fritz said he would—he didn't ask me, he was talking to Captain Fritz—yes.
Mr. Ball. This was in Captain Fritz' office?
Mr. Boyd. Yes.
