Captain Talbert. Yes.
Mr. Hubert. What did you tell him?
Captain Talbert. At the time, I told him to take his elevator up on the first floor. I put the parking attendant on that elevator, or instructed the parking attendant to get on that elevator and go up to the first floor, and for the parking attendant to maintain a vigil lookout on this elevator marked Nos. "1" and "2" here, which will be "5" and "6" in my route. I told him to see that no one came nearby those elevators, and told the operator of the service elevator to stay on it, and not bring anyone to the basement.
Mr. Hubert. Who was the parking attendant?
Captain Talbert. I'm going to have to utilize his nickname, and it is rather far-afield. I should know his name. His nickname is "King," it is one we have used for quite some time.
Mr. Hubert. Is he a member of the police department?
Captain Talbert. No, sir; he is a colored parking attendant who works for the municipal garage.
Mr. Hubert. Do you know whether he carried out your orders, Captain Talbert?
Captain Talbert. To my knowledge, he did. I don't know that he did, but to my knowledge, he did.
Mr. Hubert. You don't know to the contrary then?
