Mr. Sims. Well, I didn't go inside the sheriff's office—I stayed out in the corridor there.

Mr. Ball. The sheriff's office is just a half a block from the Texas School Depository Building?

Mr. Sims. Yes, sir; it's across the street.

Mr. Ball. And the city hall where your office, the police offices are located, is how far from the corner of Elm and Houston?

Mr. Sims. Well, that's the 500 block there and the city hall is, let's see, in the 2000 block, I believe, so it would be 15 blocks.

Mr. Ball. A couple of miles—a mile and a half?

Mr. Sims. I don't know what it is.

Mr. Ball. When you went back to your offices, was Fritz there at that time?

Mr. Sims. No, sir; he went back with Boyd and I.

Mr. Ball. After you left Decker's?
