Mr. Griffin. About 50 in there? Did you see them search the basement?
Mr. Beaty. Yes, sir.
Mr. Griffin. Did they search the basement, can you remember, before or after you got the instructions from Captain Jones?
Mr. Beaty. I couldn't remember. I don't know.
Mr. Griffin. Were you down in the basement?
Mr. Beaty. What do you call the basement now, this or this?
Mr. Griffin. I am talking about the whole bottom area, all the way from the elevators that come down from the upstairs.
Mr. Beaty. After the instructions, because I wouldn't be out here.
Mr. Griffin. Were you, prior to the time that your friends planned to go out for coffee, down in the basement at all?
Mr. Beaty. No, sir.
