Mr. HUBERT. You are satisfied that the evidence shows that really Ruby came through one man? Mr. CURRY. That's right. Mr. HUBERT. And that was Vaughn? Mr. CURRY. That's right. Mr. HUBERT. Have you anything else to say, chief? Mr. CURRY. No, sir; I believe not. Mr. HUBERT. Well, sir, on behalf of the Commission and myself personally, I want to thank you very much for coming here and being frank and contributing, I think, a great deal of the permanent record in this matter. Mr. CURRY. Thank you, sir, if there is anything that I might know that I haven't brought out, I will be happy to. The only thing I can say is that our security broke down at one place. I can't deny that, and I don't think it intentional on the part of the police department to have this thing occur. Mr. HUBERT. I think that's covered. I wanted to ask you those questions and I think they are going to be asked and we are going to have an answer to them now and you are the man to do it. Thank you very much, chief. Mr. CURRY. All right. Thank you. TESTIMONY OF SHERIFF J. E. (BILL) DECKER The testimony of Sheriff J. E. (Bill) Decker was taken at 10:44 a.m., on April 16, 1964, in the office of the U.S. attorney, 301 Post Office Building, Bryan and Ervay Streets, Dallas, Tex., by Mr. Leon D. Hubert, Jr., assistant counsel of the President's Commission. Mr. HUBERT. This is the deposition of J. E. (Bill) Decker. Mr. Decker, my name is Leon Hubert. I am a member of the advisory staff of the general counsel of the President's Commission under the provisions of Executive Order 11130, dated November 29, 1963, the joint resolution of Congress 137, and the rules of procedure adopted by the Commission in conformity with the Executive order and the joint resolution. I have been authorized to take a sworn deposition from you, Sheriff Decker. I state to you now that the general nature of the inquiry of the Commission's inquiry is to ascertain, evaluate, and to report upon facts relating to the assassination of President Kennedy and the subsequent violent death of Lee Harvey Oswald. In particular as to you, Sheriff Decker, the nature of the inquiry today is to determine what facts you may know about the death of Oswald and any other pertinent facts you may know about the general inquiry, including the security of Oswald, and the method and so forth by which he was killed. I think, Sheriff Decker, that you have appeared here today by virtue of a letter written to you by Mr. J. Lee Rankin? Mr. DECKER. Yes; I think that's correct. Mr. HUBERT. Who is the General Counsel of the staff of the President's Commission? Mr. DECKER. I know there was a letter--anyway, I am here due to that reason. Mr. HUBERT. I had the impression you had a letter, but let me say this, that in any event, you are appearing here by virtue of a request made to appear here? Mr. DECKER. I was notified by the U.S. Secret Service to appear here and I presume that was a summons.
