Mr. Robertson. I was standing almost immediately opposite Captain Fritz’ door. Perhaps a matter of 2 feet beyond it toward the pressroom, which is opposite, the opposite direction of the elevators. As this happened, I stepped closer, and ultimately was on the elevator side of Captain Fritz’ door about the middle of the hall.
Mr. Griffin. Did you follow Ruby on down the hall to see where he went?
Mr. Robertson. No; I didn’t.
Mr. Griffin. Do you know how many feet he would have walked before he got out of sight?
Mr. Robertson. No. He was out of my sight almost instantly in that melee.
Mr. Griffin. So when you say he walked on down the hall, could it have been that he just walked a few feet and stopped?
Mr. Robertson. It could have been; that’s right.
Mr. Griffin. Did you ever see him come back down the hall in the other direction?
Mr. Robertson. No.
Mr. Griffin. How long did you remain at your position after you saw Ruby?
