Mr. Hubert. What connection have you with O’Neal?
Mr. Hardin. I drive the ambulance for the funeral home. We are under contract to the city for emergency ambulance service.
Mr. Hubert. Now, you have produced written records which you have in your hand now. Do you, from your own knowledge, know those records to be the official records of the O’Neal Funeral Home?
Mr. Hardin. Yes; I do.
Mr. Hubert. Are those records relied upon by the O’Neal Funeral Home in the course of their ordinary normal business transactions?
Mr. Hardin. Yes.
Mr. Hubert. Is it a normal administrative matter to make such records as you now hold in your hand, which you are producing?
Mr. Hardin. Yes, sir; it is.
Mr. Hubert. Well, now, we’ll mark these various documents for identification, as follows, to wit: And I might add that although you have the originals we have compared the originals, have we not, with these photostatic copies, and, of course, they are identical. Therefore, I am not going to take the original from you, or even mark them for identification, but use, for all purposes the photostatic copies that you have supplied and you may keep the originals, or return them where you got them from. But for the purposes of identification, now, let us mark the documents as follows: There is an ambulance call record which I am identifying as follows:
“Dallas, Tex., March 31, 1964. Exhibit No. 5125, deposition of Michael Hardin,” and signing my name on it.
