   > Mr. BALL. That is Neches, that is Beckley.    
   > Mr. WHALEY. Yes, sir; that is right, because that is the 500 block of North   
   Beckley.    
   >    
   > So Ball points out Neches on the map, and Whaley agrees, "Yes, that is it",   
   and he thinks that's an intersection of Neches and Beckley and that it's the   
   500 block. The online reproductions of 371 which I've seen don't seem to have   
   an "X" on them. So we    
   have to trust Ball when he says "Here is Neches right here" and trust Whaley   
   when he agrees and says "Yes, that is it. This is the intersection right   
   there," where Ball points out Neches.    
   >    
   > Either we trust Ball and Whaley here, or conclude that neither of them can   
   read a map. Or that Ball lied when he said "Here is Neches". Or that they are   
   both misreading and misspeaking. Yes, Ball clears it all up.

   revolver in evidence is traceable to Oswald, and numerous witnesses at the   
   scene said the gunman discarded the shells from his handgun, tossing them   
   aside as he walked away    
   from the crime scene, and since Oswald punched McDonald and drew his handgun   
   on him, and since numerous witnesses picked Oswald out of lineups as the   
   gunman (stuff you don't admit, but an even bigger deal, as this is the kind of   
   stuff a prosecutor takes    
   to trial).    
      
   Maybe I'll get to this in the next few days, after we're done with the actual   
   subject here.
