AFFIDAVIT IN ANY FACT
THE STATE OF TEXAS
COUNTY OF DALLAS

BEFORE ME, Mary Rattan, a Notary Public in and for said County, State of 
Texas, on this day personally appeared Barbara Jeanette Davis w/f/22, 400 
E. 10th, WH3 8120. Bus: same who, after being by me duly sworn, on oath 
deposes and says:

Today November 22, 1963 shortly after 1:00 pm, my sister-in-law, Virginia 
Davis, and I were lying on the bed with the kids. I heard a shot and 
jumped up and heard another shot. I put on my shoes and went to the door 
and I saw this man walking across my front yard unloading a gun. A woman 
was standing across the street screaming that "he shot him, he killed him" 
and pointed towards a police car. That is the first time I noticed a 
police car there. I ran back in the house and called the operator and 
reported this to the police. When the police arrived Ishowed [sic] one of 
them where I saw this man emptying his gun and we found a shell. After the 
police had left I went back into the yard and Virginia found another shell 
which I turned over to the police. About 8:00 pm the same day, the police 
came after me and took me downtown to the city hall where I saw this man 
in a lineup. The #2 man in a 4-man lineup was the same man I saw in my 
yard, also the one that was unloading the gun.

/s/ Barbara Jeanette Davis

SUBSCRIBED AND SWORN BEFORE ME THIS 22 DAY OF November A.D. 1963
