Mr. Hubert. What did you tell Ruby?

Mr. Standifer. I told him I would try to locate Joe, or would give him a message that he wanted to talk to him about that safe.

Mr. Hubert. Did you do so?

Mr. Standifer. I wrote a note on an office memo and put in each detective’s box when something comes in like that, and I am sure I wrote a note.

Mr. Hubert. Do you remember whether Cody contacted him?

Mr. Standifer. No, sir; I don’t.

Mr. Hubert. Can you tell us what opinion, generally, the members of the police department had of Ruby?

Mr. Standifer. Oh, I think maybe they was friendly toward him and they would visit him down to his place for a drink, I understand.

Maybe they would go down there and drink with him occasionally. I don’t know. I have never been there with any of them, and I don’t know that to be a fact. In all probability, that is what would take place.

Mr. Hubert. Now I understand you did see him on the third floor of the Dallas Police Department on the night of November 22, 1963?
