In this building the men, from their movements and actions, transferred license plates from the Chevrolet sedan to a larger car, which Urschel believed to be a seven-passenger Cadillac or Buick. A berth had been made up in the back of this car and he was told to lie on this bunk. They left this place- immediately and after a drive of two or three hours a stop was made at a filling station, where a woman attendant filled the - -. the car with gas. Urschel overheard one of the men asking the woman about crop conditions and she replied that "The crops - a und here are burned up, although we may make some broom corn.' 77 Urschel stated that about 9 or 10 a.m. it rained and the road became very slippery, to the extent that on one occasion one of the men was compelled to alight and push the car.
