Mrs. OSWALD. Ruth Paine. Because Lee did not have a typewriter, and it is hardly likely that he would have had it typed somewhere else. Mr. RANKIN. I hand you Exhibit 16, which purports to be the envelope for the letter, Exhibit 15. Have you ever seen that? Mrs. OSWALD. The envelope I did see. I did not see the letter, but I did see the envelope. Lee had retyped it some 10 times or so. Mr. RANKIN. Do you recall or could you clarify for us about the date on the envelope--whether it is November 2 or November 12? Mrs. OSWALD. November 12. Mr. RANKIN. I offer in evidence Exhibit 16. The CHAIRMAN. It may be admitted. (The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 16, and received in evidence.) Mr. RANKIN. I might call your attention, Mrs. Oswald, to the fact that Exhibit 15, the letter, is dated November 9. Does that help you any? Mrs. OSWALD. Yes. Then this must be 12. Mr. RANKIN. That is the only way you can determine it, is it? Mrs. OSWALD. Yes. Mr. RANKIN. Did you have anything to do with the mailing of this letter, Exhibit 15? Mrs. OSWALD. No. Mr. RANKIN. Yesterday you testified to the fact that your husband told you about his trip to Mexico when he returned, is that right? Mrs. OSWALD. Yes. Mr. RANKIN. Where were you when he told you about it? Mrs. OSWALD. In the home of Mrs. Paine, in my room. Mr. RANKIN. Was there anyone other than yourself and your husband present when he told you about it? Mrs. OSWALD. No. Mr. RANKIN. Will you tell us in as much detail as you can remember just what he said about the trip at that time? Mrs. OSWALD. Everything that I could remember I told you yesterday. I don't remember any more about it. Mr. RANKIN. At that time---- Mrs. OSWALD. But I asked him that we not go to Russia, I told him that I did not want to, and he said, "Okay." Mr. RANKIN. That was in this same conversation, after he had told you about the trip to Mexico? Mrs. OSWALD. Yes. Mr. RANKIN. When he asked you not to tell anyone about the trip to Mexico, did he tell you why he asked you to do that? Mrs. OSWALD. No. I knew that he was secretive, and that he loved to make secrets of things. Mr. RANKIN. Did you know the Comrade Kostin that is referred to in this letter of November 8, Exhibit 15? Mrs. OSWALD. I never wrote to him. I don't know. I don't know where he got that name from. Mr. RANKIN. Did your husband say anything about Comrade Kostin and his visit with him at the embassy in Mexico City, when he told you about the trip? Mrs. OSWALD. He did not name him. He didn't tell me his name. But he told me he was a very pleasant, sympathetic person, who greeted him, welcomed him there. Mr. RANKIN. Did your husband say anything to you about what he meant when he said he could not take a chance on requesting a new visa unless he used a real name, so he returned to the United States? Mrs. OSWALD. No, he didn't tell me about it.
