Mr. PRIDDY. Yes, sir. That is the first thing when you stamp it--you
stamp it--then you put the number of the car.
Mr. HUBERT. I notice the word “Mike,” on the left-hand top, is that in
your handwriting, too?
Mr. PRIDDY. I don’t see it. Wait a minute. No, sir.
Mr. HUBERT. Also notice a name on this document, Hardin Exhibit No.
5125, printed, telephone number, and then written No. 19.
Mr. PRIDDY. You mean this printed?
Mr. HUBERT. Yes; that No. 19 there.
Mr. PRIDDY. I can’t tell.
Mr. HUBERT. All right. Now, then, there is on Hardin Exhibit No. 5125,
next to the printed item “time called,” a stamped time--and the time
stated there is 11:21, November 24. Can you enlighten us as to the
meaning of that entry?
Mr. PRIDDY. Whenever I receive a call from the ambulance--from
the police department I stick this card in the machine, and it
automatically stamps the date and the time that the----
Mr. HUBERT. What kind of machine is that?
Mr. PRIDDY. Just a time machine like a timeclock, except it is made for
these.
Mr. HUBERT. You slip a card in there and it automatically stamps the
time. You don’t have to hit it?
Mr. PRIDDY. No; you just shove it in there.
Mr. HUBERT. How accurate is that timeclock?
Mr. PRIDDY. Well, it is as accurate as the police department clock. I
mean, they are synchronized.
Mr. HUBERT. How are they synchronized and--how often?
Mr. PRIDDY. Don’t know the mechanism. I know a man comes out and they
are serviced regularly.
Mr. HUBERT. By the police department?
Mr. PRIDDY. No, by the manufacturer; and I don’t know who that is.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you know how often they are serviced for correction and
accuracy?
Mr. PRIDDY. No, sir.
Mr. HUBERT. But, you all rely upon them?
