United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Generally, I think that was right, for such things, that is the right
thing to do. There was some grounds for it.
Please excuse me. Perhaps I talk too much.
Mr. RANKIN. When you had your child baptized, did you discuss that with
your husband?
Mrs. OSWALD. I knew that Lee was not religious, and, therefore, I did
not tell him about it. I lived in Fort Worth at that time, while he
lived in Dallas.
But when June was baptized, I told him about it, and he didn't say
anything about it. He said it was my business. And he said, "Okay, if
you wish." He had nothing against it. He only took offense at the fact
that I hadn't told him about it ahead of time.
Mr. RANKIN. Are you a member of any church?
Mrs. OSWALD. I believe in God, of course, but I do not go to
church--first because I do not have a car. And, secondly, because there
is only one Russian Church. Simply that I believe in God in my own
heart, and I don't think it is necessary to visit the church.
Mr. RANKIN. While your husband--or while you were visiting the Halls,
did your husband tell you about getting his job in Dallas?
Mrs. OSWALD. Yes. I knew about it before he left for Dallas, that he
already had work there.
Mr. RANKIN. Do you recall whether your husband rented the apartment in
Dallas about November 3, 1962?
Mrs. OSWALD. For him?
Mr. RANKIN. Yes.
Mrs. OSWALD. He had told me that he rented a room, not an apartment.
But that was in October.
What date I don't know.
Mr. RANKIN. And had he obtained an apartment before you went to Dallas
to live with him?
Mrs. OSWALD. Yes. Cleaned everything up.
Mr. RANKIN. So that you would have gone to Dallas to live with him some
time on or about the date that he rented that apartment?
Mrs. OSWALD. Yes.
Mr. RANKIN. After you went to live with him in the apartment at Dallas,
did you separate from him again and go to live with somebody else?
Mrs. OSWALD. Only after this quarrel. Then I stayed with my friends for
one week. I had already told you about that.
Mr. RANKIN. That is the Meller matter?
Mrs. OSWALD. Yes.
Mr. RANKIN. Do you recall that you called Mrs. Meller and told her
about your husband beating you and she told you to get a cab and come
to stay with her?
Mrs. OSWALD. Yes, but he didn't beat me.
Mr. RANKIN. And you didn't tell her that he had beat you, either?
Mrs. OSWALD. I don't think so. Perhaps she understood it that he had
beaten me, because it had happened.
Mr. RANKIN. Can you give us any more exact account of where your
husband stayed in the period between October 10 and November 18, 1962?
Mrs. OSWALD. I don't remember his exact address. This was a period when
I did not live with him.
I am asking about which period is it. I don't remember the dates.
Mr. RANKIN. The period that he rented the apartment was November 3, so
that shortly after that, as I understood your testimony, you were with
him, from November 3, or about November 3 on to the 18th. Is that right?
