Mr. Larry Price, a bus driver for Trailways in North Carolina, is called as a witness in a trial involving a woman, Miss Clark.
He confirms that it is possible to travel from Greenville to Barkley Cove and back again in one night.
On the night of Chase's death, the bus he was driving didn't carry any passenger that looked like Miss Clark.
However, Price mentions a skinny passenger who could have been a tall woman disguised as a man on the bus. He noted the man wore a bulky blue cap and kept his head down.
Upon seeing Miss Clark, Price now believes it was possible the skinny man was in fact her in disguise.
Kya is instructed to stand, and Price confirms her height and stature match the skinny man from the bus.
Price expresses that he thinks it's very possible the skinny man on the bus was Miss Clark.
Tom (presumably part of Miss Clark's defence) seconds the idea that the man might not have been Miss Clark, as Price didn't initially think the man was a woman in disguise - he only thought of this possibility after it was suggested by the sheriff.
Tom also calls into question Price's memory in remembering the skinny man's presence on the night of October 29th. Price admits he can't be 100% sure of the date.
Tom gets Price to admit the bus was late that night, arriving at Barkley cove at 1:40am.
A second witness, a bus driver named Mr. John King, is called. He drove the 2:30am bus from Barkley Cove to Greenville on October 30th.
Mr. King did not see Miss Clark on his bus but does remember an older woman with a physical likeness to Miss Clark. He agrees that, with a disguise, Miss Clark could look like the older woman on the bus.
However, upon Tom's questioning, Mr. King admits he did not see Miss Clark on the bus, and there were no other buses from Barkley Cove to Greenville that night.
