Mr. BOYD. Well, yes, sir. I can tell you I was born in Navarro County--the particular place was Blooming Grove, Tex., and it's about 15 miles west of Corsicana, and I was raised up about 7 miles north of there. I attended school, well, I started at a little country school--it was Pecan, was the name of the school. I went there 2 years and then they sent me to Blooming Grove and I started to school in my second grade. The reason I was in the second grade--I had to go through a primer before I got in the first grade--I didn't fail--I just had to go through this primer before I got in the first grade, and I graduated from high school at Blooming Grove in 1946 and I went into the Navy and served for 2 years, I believe I served about 22 months in the Navy--I joined and I went through boot training at San Diego, went from there to Newport, R. I., and caught my first ship, the USS Kenneth D. Bailey. I don't recall just how many months I spent on that--somewhere around 15 or 16 months, I've forgotten, and then they sent me to--I transferred from that ship and went on the USS Cone, that's another destroyer [spelling] C-o-n-e, and along about the first part of January, I believe, in 1948, they transferred me to Pensacola where I caught my third destroyer, the USS Forrest Royal, and we operated in and out of there until I got out of the Navy, and I believe it was about the first day of April 1948, when I was discharged, and I came to Dallas and I have been here in Dallas ever since. I went to work on the police department May 19, 1952. Prior to that I worked, I believe, about 3 years for the gas company and I started out reading gas meters, and then I went into collecting, and I was a collector for the gas company when I came on the police department. I think I worked a couple of more places before then--one for a printing company down here on Cockrell, down here by Sears & Roebuck for a while, but I didn't stay there long. Mr. BALL. How long have you been in homicide? Mr. BOYD. I came in there on October 15, I believe, in 1957. Mr. BALL. November 22, 1963, what were your hours of duty? Mr. BOYD. Well, my hours of duty on November 22, 1963, I believe, was 4 to midnight. Mr. BALL. So, on that day you went to work earlier? Mr. BOYD. Yes, sir; I did. Mr. BALL. What time? Mr. BOYD. I came to work at 9 o'clock. Is it all right for me to go by this? Mr. BALL. I see you have there a report that is entitled "Report on Officer's Duty in Regard to the President's Murder, R. M. Sims, No. 629, and E. L. Boyd, No. 840." Mr. BOYD. Yes; we are partners. Mr. BALL. Did you prepare that report yourself? Mr. BOYD. He and I together prepared it. Mr. BALL. When did you prepare it? Mr. BOYD. Let me see--the last part of November--I'm not sure of the date. Mr. BALL. Was it within a week after the events took place that are recorded there? Mr. BOYD. I would say so; yes. Mr. BALL. You dictated it to a secretary?
