Man in the blue suit turned, holding a rifle, and ran to the man at the switch box…The ‘suit man’ tossed the rifle over to the ‘railroad man’…The ‘railroad man‘ received the rifle, dismantled it, stashed it in the ‘tool box,’ and started running north along the tracks.” Also includes a color glossy 4 x 6 photo of Hoffman, signed and inscribed on the reverse in black ink, and a TLS, three pages, 8.5 x 11, Deaf Ministries of North Texas letterhead, September 13, 1995, discussing his observations and statements.
