Mr. HUTSON. We stayed in the service station business 18 months. I sold my interest to him around February the 5th, and I went to work for the Dallas Police Department. Mr. BELIN. What year? Mr. HUTSON. 1955. Mr. BELIN. What were your duties in the Dallas Police Department in the fall of 1963? Mr. HUTSON. I was a 3-wheel motorcycle officer. Mr. BELIN. Would that have included November 22, 1963? Mr. HUTSON. Yes, sir; it would. Mr. BELIN. Did you have anything to do in connection with the Presidential motorcade on November 22? Mr. HUTSON. Yes; I did. Mr. BELIN. What did you do? Mr. HUTSON. I was in charge of "no parking" on all of North Harwood Street and Main Street to Field on both sides of the street. Mr. BELIN. After the motorcade passed down Main, what did you do? Mr. HUTSON. I was at Main and Ervay Avenue, and after the motorcade passed, I began to pick up my "No-parking" signs. Mr. BELIN. Were you at Main and Ervay when the motorcade passed? Mr. HUTSON. Right. Mr. BELIN. To direct traffic? Mr. HUTSON. I was trying--we were trying to hold the noon crowds back that was surging in the street. Mr. BELIN. After the motorcade passed, then you started picking up the signs? Mr. HUTSON. Yes. Mr. BELIN. What did you do after that? Mr. HUTSON. As I was picking up the signs, I heard a Signal 19, involving the President of the United States at Elm and Houston. Mr. BELIN. Now had you heard anything ahead of that time? Mr. HUTSON. I saw this squad car go by me with the siren on. Mr. BELIN. All right. Mr. HUTSON. And as I got back to my motorcycle from picking up the signs, I heard the Signal 19, involving the President of the United States at Elm and Houston. I immediately made an emergency run to this location. Mr. BELIN. What did you do when you got there? Mr. HUTSON. I pulled up in front of the Texas School Book Depository and got off my motorcycle and took a position up on the sidewalk in front of the main entrance. Mr. BELIN. Now there are a few steps between the sidewalk and the main entrance. Were you at the bottom of the steps? Mr. HUTSON. Yes; I was at the bottom of the steps. Mr. BELIN. What did you do at the bottom of the steps? Mr. HUTSON. I stopped people and screened them from trying to enter, and prevented anyone from leaving if he got through the other two officers. Mr. BELIN. You were there with two more officers? Mr. HUTSON. Yes, sir. Mr. BELIN. Where were they? Mr. HUTSON. They were at the top of the stairs at the door. Mr. BELIN. Do you know the names of these officers? Mr. HUTSON. I am not positive, but the best of my knowledge, it was J. B. Garrick and H. R. Freeman. Mr. BELIN. Were those officers there when you got there? Mr. HUTSON. Yes, sir. Mr. BELIN. Were they motorcycle officers or not? Mr. HUTSON. Solo motorcycle officers. Mr. BELIN. How long did you stay there? Mr. HUTSON. I don't know the exact amount of time that I stayed there. Mr. BELIN. What is your best judgment?
