Mr. Hubert. Did you give any consideration to borrowing from your family or friends or other people rather than Ruby?
Mr. Carlin. Well, yes; I probably could have except for two things: First, I had no car to go somewhere to borrow it, and second, it was fairly late at night, and third, I was in Dallas where I could not get back to borrow money that late at night.
Mr. Hubert. You say you made the call from the garage, but you had previously been at the Colony Club, had you not?
Mr. Carlin. That’s correct.
Mr. Hubert. Why didn’t you make the call from the Colony Club?
Mr. Carlin. I remember now—the call was made from the Colony Club and she said that he was very upset and rude to her and we went back down to see—it seems as though Andy was in here somewhere, at least he was supposed to be at the club or something—that’s what he said. At least, Karen told me he said Andrew was supposed to be at the club. After upsetting her and hanging the phone up, we went down to see if the club was open and we knocked on the door and no one was there, and we went back to the parking lot again and called because it was downstairs and the Colony was upstairs and farther away, and much more noise.
Mr. Hubert. Did you have any connection with an outfit called Banker’s Drug Co. or Bankers’ Drugs?
Mr. Carlin. Bankers’ Drugs—not to my knowledge. You might tell me some more about them, if I did?
Mr. Hubert. Well, you mentioned that when you were servicing these little motels, these setups in motels, that some of it was with drugs like aspirin and so forth?
Mr. Carlin. Yes; definitely so. That’s what we did.
