Mr. Griffin. How long have you been assistant chief?
Chief Batchelor. Since January 20, 1960.
Mr. Griffin. Of course you and I have spoken at some length earlier this afternoon. In that conversation, we discussed your activities from the time that you learned that President Kennedy was shot on November 22 until Saturday, November 23, when you first heard something about the movement of Lee Harvey Oswald from the Dallas City Jail to the Dallas County Jail. I believe you told me that sometime on Saturday night you were confronted by some newspaper reporters with respect to the movement of Lee Harvey Oswald?
Chief Batchelor. Yes, sir.
Mr. Griffin. Would you tell us, Chief Batchelor, about what time of the night these reporters approached you?
Chief Batchelor. This must have been somewhere around 7:30 or 8 o'clock at night.
Mr. Griffin. Where were you?
Chief Batchelor. I was in the administrative offices of the police department at headquarters.
Mr. Griffin. That is on the third floor? On the third floor of the police and——
Chief Batchelor. Yes, sir.
