Beard. Male. #14: Are they hostages? #36: I haven't thought about that. I think so. I think so. I just had a warm feeling towards them. I just naturally assumed they were Americans. +45 #14: I have no further questions. Is there anything you'd like to add? #36: Did I say, the street, down the bottom, forty feet to street level is very bright, way down the street and there's some people out there. This person seems to be coping with a bad situation at this moment better than anyone. . . . . well, very well at any rate. Perhaps more calm than anyone I've seen. Seems to have complete faith that . . . all will be well. All she has to do is wait. That's about it. PAUSE Boy, I feel like I could . . . . TURN OVER TAPE Let's see, the first scene I got was looking over a person's shoulder Lhrough a big window down a brightly lit street, far below. Most of the buildings above street level was very dark, dim, except for the reflection from the street. And, there was a woman to the left, wrapped up in bedspread and a blanket pulled over her shoulders kind of Indian style. . . just looking out the window. I had the feeling it was quite high. And perhaps, one to two stories above the roof of the building. I had the feeling it was at least one floor above this level. If I remember correctly.

PAUSE #14: You said you were high. #36: I was quite high. But, I thought there was a floor - one or two floors above me. I felt the building rather than being very wide and high, was fairly slim with a width ratio of about two to one. I think I can draw that. And there was other buildings off behind this, but I felt it was somewhere around the vicinity of the . of the window indicated by the arrow. And, I . . . . . felt that off over in this direction, indicated by Arrow B, I'll make the first one Arrow A. In the direction of Arrow B, I thought I saw the drooping, line like shape of wires, which I interpreted to be . . . It was like looking at the end of a four shortened suspension bridge. And for some reason, I thought, I interpreted that to be perhaps the big, big monument they put up to something a few years ago. Beyond, was either a picture or another window, I couldn't . . couldn't make it out, but I suspect it was a picture on the wall. This is not a very good drawing. For quite a while she was standing near the window with her hands on the window sill. And, there was a table back over here. PAUSE With a fairly comfortable chair nearby. PAUSE #14: Then you went out, must have been in the hallway. And, I'd like you to draw a picture of that, and you mentioned a TV camera. #36: Oh, Okay.

That hall was quite long. It was down here on the right here somewhere and some of these rooms below the camera on here, I felt there was some other people. There appeared to be a central area in here; the elevators are somewhere in this area here. Then there was, apparently, more windows and rooms over on the other side. But, the TV camera was way down the hall looking down past the door up here. That's better. I don't know, I think the elevator might have been this (not audible) section down around here somewhere. There was more than one elevator and I tried to see where they were in relationship to each other, but I couldn't make it out. But I did have a very strong feeling there was more than one. But there was some- thing about one could stop at this floor. One elevator could stop at this floor. I don't know whether it was because of mechanical or whether someone . . . made a ruling that that's the way it would be. I had a feel- ing that you had to get permission to stop at that floor. . from somebody. It had the feeling of a hotel or like area. It was fairly plush compared to some of the areas I've been looking at. It could have been an office building and this was some kind of executive suite. It appeared cleaner and better kept than most areas I've visited. . before. Is there anything else I had on there? PAUSE I never did look at the center section. I don't know what's in there. Is there anything else? PAUSE #14: No. Is there anything else you can think of? #36: No. I had a vague awareness of two men down the hall. The one younger than the other. I felt they were . . It was felt that they were important. . . by the local people. And I felt that they were probably American. And being American, I just naturally assumed that they were hostage. But I guess that's not necessarily true. But I felt they might be. That's about it.
