Mr. RANKIN. Did you discuss with your husband this proposal of your mother-in-law to have you live with her? Mrs. OSWALD. Well, she made the proposal to my husband, not to me. Of course, I found out about it. Mr. RANKIN. Did you and he have any discussion about it after you found out about it? Mrs. OSWALD. Yes, of course. Mr. RANKIN. You recall that discussion? Mrs. OSWALD. No. I only remember the fact. Mr. RANKIN. Did he find work after you left Robert's then? Mrs. OSWALD. Yes. Mr. RANKIN. You did move to be with your mother-in-law, lived with her for a time? Mrs. OSWALD. Yes, about 3 weeks. And then after 3 weeks Lee did not want to live with her any more and he rented an apartment. Mr. RANKIN. Do you know the reason why he did not want to live there any more? Mrs. OSWALD. It seemed peculiar to me and didn't want to believe it but he did not love his mother, she was not quite a normal woman. Now, I know this for sure. Mr. RANKIN. Did he tell you that at the time? Mrs. OSWALD. He talked about it but since he spoke in English to his mother, I didn't understand it. There were quite a few scenes when he would return from work he didn't want to talk to her. Perhaps she thought I was the reason for the fact that Lee did not want to talk to her. And, of course, for a mother this is painful and I told him that he should be more attentive to his mother but he did not change. I think that one of the reasons for this was that she talked a great deal about how much she had done to enable Lee to return from Russia, and Lee felt that he had done most of--the greatest effort in that respect and didn't want to discuss it. Mr. RANKIN. Where did he find work at that time? Mrs. OSWALD. Of course, if I had been told now I would have remembered it because I have learned some English but at that time I didn't know, but Lee told me that it wasn't far from Mercedes Street where we lived, and it was really common labor connected with some kind of metal work, something for buildings. Mr. RANKIN. Did he ever say whether he enjoyed that work? Mrs. OSWALD. He didn't like it. Mr. RANKIN. Do you recall how long he stayed at that job? Mrs. OSWALD. I don't know but it seemed to me that he worked there for about 3 or 4 months. Perhaps longer. Dates are one of my problems. Mr. RANKIN. Do you know whether he left that job voluntarily or was discharged? Mrs. OSWALD. He told me that he had been discharged but I don't know why. Mr. RANKIN. When you left the mother-in-law's house where did you go? Mrs. OSWALD. I have already said that we moved to Mercedes Street. Mr. RANKIN. Did you have an apartment there? Mrs. OSWALD. Yes, we rented an apartment in a duplex. Mr. RANKIN. Do you recall the address on Mercedes Street? Mrs. OSWALD. No, I don't remember the exact number. Mr. RANKIN. Will you describe the apartment, how many rooms it had? Mrs. OSWALD. Living room, kitchen, bath, and one bedroom.
