Mr. STERN. That the shots were fired?
Mr. HOLLAND. The shots was fired.
Mr. STERN. Two motorcycle policemen who were in the motorcade?
Mr. HOLLAND. In the motorcade, and one of them throwed his motorcycle
down right in the middle of the street and ran up the incline with his
pistol in his hand, and the other motorcycle policeman jumped over
the curb with his motorcycle and tried to ride up the hill on his
motorcycle, and he--tipped over with him up there, and he ran up there
the rest of the way with his----
Mr. STERN. Did you see anything further involving those two?
Mr. HOLLAND. No; I ran around, I was going around the corner of the
fence.
Mr. STERN. When they were coming up the incline?
Mr. HOLLAND. When that happened.
Mr. STERN. But, nothing further came of that, that you observed?
Mr. HOLLAND. No.
Mr. STERN. Did you talk to them?
Mr. HOLLAND. No.
Mr. STERN. Anything else occur to you?
Mr. HOLLAND. No; that is about all of it. If I have been of any help, I
am tickled.
Mr. STERN. You certainly have. I appreciate very much your coming here
today. Our reporter, Mr. Holland, will transcribe your testimony, and
you then have the opportunity of reviewing it and signing it, or if
you prefer you can waive your signature and she will send it directly
to the Commission. Either one, it is entirely up to you, whichever you
prefer.
Mr. MORRISON. I prefer that he read it and sign it.
Mr. STERN. Fine. Then the reporter will get in touch with you as soon
as his transcript is ready to read.
Mr. MORRISON. I would like to say--now, you will cooperate with the
authorities in any way?
Mr. HOLLAND. I surely will.
Mr. MORRISON. To clear this up?
Mr. HOLLAND. I sure will.
Mr. MORRISON. And you and have--you and I have been close personal
friends for over 10 years, haven't we?
Mr. HOLLAND. That's right.
Mr. MORRISON. And you wanted me to come down here because you thought
you would be nervous, and if I were with you maybe you would be less
nervous?
Mr. HOLLAND. That's correct, because I was real nervous when I went
over to that sheriff's office that afternoon.
Mr. MORRISON. I believe that is all.
Mr. STERN. Thank you.
