Mr. BALL. Does that look anything like the southeast corner of the
building as you saw it that afternoon?
Mr. MOONEY. Yes, sir.
Mr. BALL. About what time of day was this?
Mr. MOONEY. Well, it was approaching 1 o'clock. It could have been 1
o'clock.
Mr. BALL. Did you look at your watch?
Mr. MOONEY. No, sir; I didn't. I should have, but I didn't look at my
watch at the time to see what time it was.
Mr. BALL. Were you the only officer in that corner?
Mr. MOONEY. At that very moment I was.
Mr. BALL. You say you squeezed behind certain boxes. Can you point out
for me what boxes you squeezed through?
Mr. MOONEY. If I remember correctly, I went in there from this angle
right here--right through here. There could be a space. There is a
space there I squeezed in between here, and that is when I got into
the opening, because the minute I squeezed through there there lay the
shells.
Mr. BALL. All right. Let's make a mark here. Is this the space?
Mr. MOONEY. I believe that is going to be the space; yes, sir.
Mr. BALL. If I make an arrow on that, would that indicate it?
Mr. MOONEY. Yes, sir. There is another picture I have seen later that
shows an opening in through here, but I didn't see that opening at that
time.
Mr. BALL. That is the opening through which you squeezed? And it is an
arrow shown on Exhibit 508.
Now, I will show you 509.

Is that the way the boxes looked?
Mr. MOONEY. That is the three boxes, but one of them was tilted off
just a little, laying down on the edge, I believe, to my knowledge.
