Mr. Griffin. Now, during the period that you were there, did you see Jack Ruby?
Mr. Beers. No, sir; I didn’t.
Mr. Griffin. Did you have occasion to return to the police station that day, Saturday?
Mr. Beers. No, sir; I did not.
Mr. Griffin. Where did you spend the remainder of Saturday?
Mr. Beers. I think, I can’t remember exactly where I spent the remainder of Saturday, but I think just on general assignments out of the paper there. On Saturday afternoon it is usually rather quiet, and I possibly, I may have had one or more assignments, but I don’t think so.
Mr. Griffin. Now, before you left work on Saturday, did you have any instructions as to what you were to do the next day, Sunday?
Mr. Beers. No; I did not. It was approximately midnight anyway when I left work Saturday night. I had no instructions. And at midnight, I was called to the telephone and told to report to the basement of the city hall Sunday morning at 10 a.m., to photograph the transfer of Lee Harvey Oswald from the city jail to the Dallas County Jail.
Mr. Griffin. What time did you actually arrive there?
Mr. Beers. I arrived at the city hall just about 9 o’clock.
