Mr. Hubert. And I see that you fixed it by relating it to Chief Curry’s announcement and then backing off from that time?
Mr. Waldo. That’s correct, sir. I did look at the clock as soon as we received Chief Curry’s announcement to know who would be on my desk of the newspaper to receive it and recall that it was 3 to 4 minutes of 6.
Mr. Hubert. Do you remember seeing Ruby at the jail on Friday afternoon or night?
Mr. Waldo. No, sir; I do not. It is stated in there that I did not.
Mr. Hubert. Did you know Ruby at all, sir?
Mr. Waldo. No.
Mr. Hubert. When did you first meet him or meet the man you now know to be Ruby?
Mr. Waldo. Well, if it can be called a meeting, it would be at approximately 2 p.m., Sunday, November the 24th when he was brought down from his seventh floor, I believe it’s the seventh floor jail cell to homicide offices on the third floor of Dallas Police Headquarters for interrogation and was led down the corridor from the jail elevator to the office.
Mr. Hubert. I had reference really to a meeting on the 23d, the day before—Saturday—but apparently you don’t classify that as a meeting. I think you saw the man that you ultimately identified as Ruby on the third floor or in the police building on Saturday?
Mr. Waldo. That is correct, sir.
