The call went through very quickly. And I left that area then and went back to Captain Fritz’ office, because I was interested in talking to the man who had shot Oswald as quickly as possible.
Mr. Hubert. Now, when you went down there to the jail office and saw Oswald, as you testified, and made the call, was Jack Ruby there?
Mr. Sorrels. I did not see him.
Mr. Hubert. You did not?
Mr. Sorrels. No, sir.
Mr. Hubert. To your knowledge, he had already been removed?
Mr. Sorrels. That is correct; yes, sir.
Mr. Hubert. Now, how did you get up to Fritz’ office?
Mr. Sorrels. I went back up the elevator, the regular public elevator, and went to his office and inquired of Captain Fritz, and I was informed that he was not there, that he had gone to the hospital. I then asked him where was Jack Rubin.
Mr. Hubert. That is to say, you had been informed at that time that the last name of Jack Ruby was Rubin, R-u-b-i-n?
