Mr. GRIFFIN. Was anything said to you by any of the people with Ruby when you went up to the jail to get him? Mr. MONTGOMERY. No; they didn’t say anything to me. Mr. GRIFFIN. Did they pass on any information about anything Ruby had said? Mr. MONTGOMERY. No. Mr. GRIFFIN. No; did you people talk at all with Ruby as you brought him downstairs? Mr. MONTGOMERY. I’m sure we did, and I am trying to remember what we said. Let’s see. Mr. GRIFFIN. Well, now, you knew Ruby. Did you try to get him to open up on the way down? Mr. MONTGOMERY. No; I didn’t. Usually when we are bringing a prisoner down I don’t try to talk to them too much. I don’t want to upset anything, you know, any plans he has to talk to him. Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, did Captain Fritz know that you were acquainted with Ruby? Mr. MONTGOMERY. He knew when I told him; yes. Mr. GRIFFIN. When did you tell him that? Mr. MONTGOMERY. As we was going out to Parkland Hospital. He kept saying, “Who is Jack Ruby?” And I told him, “He is a man that runs the Club Vegas out on Oak Lawn.” Asked me did I know him, I said, “Yes; I used to have a district for about 4 years out there.” Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you feel that if you would talk to Ruby, that Ruby might have been willing to give you any information? Mr. MONTGOMERY. No; because Ruby and I, first of all, weren’t that close or anything. As a matter of fact, I don’t guess he even remembers my name or face, either. Mr. GRIFFIN. Uh-huh. Mr. MONTGOMERY. But he was used to seeing officers come in his place. I don’t imagine he would remember one any more than others--another. Mr. GRIFFIN. Did any of the officers up there at the jail cell with Ruby when you went up there to get him come down on the elevator with you? Mr. MONTGOMERY. I believe Hall, FBI Agent Hall. Mr. GRIFFIN. And did Hall go into Captain Fritz’ office? Mr. MONTGOMERY. Now, our Detective Hall rather than Agent Hall did. I just don’t know, because I couldn’t say for sure. Mr. GRIFFIN. Who do you remember being in Fritz’ office the first time, or--on this occasion when Ruby was brought down by you? Mr. MONTGOMERY. Well, I know that Captain Fritz, Ruby, and, of course, Detectives Hall and Boyd--Detective M. G. Hall. I know they were there for sure, and who else was there I couldn’t swear, because I just saw them walk up to the door to Captain Fritz’ office. And they went in, of course, the blinds were drawn in Fritz’ office, so, I couldn’t see who was in there. Mr. GRIFFIN. What did you do after they took Ruby into Fritz’ office? Mr. MONTGOMERY. Well, I sat down and answered some more of them phone calls. Mr. GRIFFIN. How long did you do that? Mr. MONTGOMERY. I don’t recall anything outstanding from then on. I know I didn’t get off until, have to look at my notebook again. Yes; seemed to me about 10. Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you take Ruby back upstairs? Mr. MONTGOMERY. No; I didn’t take him back upstairs. Mr. GRIFFIN. No? Mr. MONTGOMERY. No; I didn’t take him back upstairs.
