New York Herald Tribune 11/22/63:
Mr Campbell entered the front lobby and saw Mr Oswald in the small storage room by the front stairs:
Now!
Just
before being seen by Mr Ochus Campbell in the small storage room just off the front lobby, Mr Oswald
-------------was out front standing right at Mr Lovelady's shoulder:
-------------after which he had his encounter with Officer Baker.
But where exactly was the encounter with Officer Baker?
We are fortunate to have an answer of sorts from Officer Baker himself (in the 11/22 affidavit--------that's right, the one in which he goes on to tell us not about a second-floor lunchroom man but about a man caught "walking away from the stairway" on the "third or fourth floor"!
) ----------------
Officer Baker asked Mr Oswald 'Do you work here?' ----------as a prelude to:
Do you know where the nearest stairs are?But Officer Baker's affidavit account is a little bit ambiguous..........
--------> were the "several people"----------one of whom was Mr Oswald------------"standing around"
outside on the front landing or
inside in the vestibule?
----------------If Mr Oswald
is PrayerManInDarnell, then the former seems the more likely (although he
could have gone in the door just after Mr Darnell stops filming that area)
----------------If Mr Oswald
is not PrayerManInDarnell, then the latter seems the more likely, and Mr Oswald re-entered the building immediately after the shooting.
Which is the more natural reading of "As I entered the door I saw several people standing around"? I'd incline towards: the people were inside in the front lobby.
Kindly note! Mr Truly's 11/22 interview with the FBI states that, once inside the front entrance, he and Officer Baker "saw no one there"! While we're on the subject!Doesn't Darnell show the glass front door moving?
This may actually be from the re-entry into the front lobby of Mr Oswald himself!
