Captain JONES. Yes, sir.
Mr. HUBERT. But note for the record: The report which Captain Jones is
referring has been designated as Commission Report No. 81-A. This is a
copy of that, isn't it?
Captain JONES. Yes, sir. That is it.
Mr. HUBERT. All right. So, that the chart really is an estimation based
upon the persons involved, what they said themselves, and also as to
what other people said as to where they were.
Captain JONES. Yes, sir; we were limited as to the miles and distances
of contacting some of the witnesses.
Mr. HUBERT. Once again I thank you for appearing.

waive the 3-day----
Lieutenant REVILL. I will waive it, yes.
Mr. HUBERT. All right. Now, let's swear you.
If you will stand and raise your right hand. Do you solemnly swear to
tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you
God?
