Mrs. PAINE. I just made it clear I was uncomfortable and on the way home I would drive. Mr. McCLOY. There is one thing we haven't had testimony about, I imagine, except implicitly. It is alleged that Lee possessed a .38 caliber revolver. Do you, in the light of hindsight, perhaps, do you have any feeling now that he was secreting that weapon on your premises? Mrs. PAINE. I had no idea that it was there or ever was there. Mr. McCLOY. Nothing now makes you feel that it was there other than the finding of the rifle? Mrs. PAINE. That is right. Representative FORD. Thank you very much, Mrs. Paine. Senator COOPER. The Commission will recess until 2 o'clock today. (Whereupon, at 12:20 p.m., the Commission recessed.) Afternoon Session TESTIMONY OF RUTH HYDE PAINE RESUMED The President's Commission reconvened at 2 p.m. The CHAIRMAN. We will start now. We will continue until Senator Cooper comes and then he will preside the rest of the afternoon. I will be busy with Mr. Rankin some of the time. Mr. JENNER. Thank you, Mr. Chief Justice. Mrs. Paine, this morning I was seeking to qualify and introduce in evidence Commission Exhibit 425, which, at the time I had it in my hand, consisted of one page. You called my attention to the fact that it was a letter dated October 14, 1963, to your mother by you in your handwriting, but that you had only given me the first page or sheet, which consists front and reverse of two pages. Then you tendered me the second page or sheet, and indicated some reluctance about the need for its use in this connection. During the noon recess you have afforded me the possession of the second page, and my recollection is you have voiced no objection to its introduction in evidence. Mrs. PAINE. I have no objection to its introduction. It refers just to personal matters, but if you don't have it, you will have to wonder what it is. It is better not to wonder. Mr. JENNER. Yes. And it does give the full context of the really pertinent statements that you made in the first two pages and to which you made allusion yesterday in your testimony. Mrs. PAINE. That is right. Mr. JENNER. I direct your attention to the second sheet, the first of which is numbered three and the reverse side numbered four. Is the handwriting on both of those sheets yours? Mrs. PAINE. Yes it is. Mr. JENNER. And it is the third and fourth pages of the letter to which you referred yesterday and again this morning, Commission Exhibit No. 425? Mrs. PAINE. It is. Mr. JENNER. And that page is in the same condition now as when--that is pages three and four, as when--you dispatched the entire letter to your mother? Mrs. PAINE. That is right. Mr. JENNER. Mr. Chief Justice, I offer Commission Exhibit No. 425 in evidence. It has been heretofore marked. The CHAIRMAN. It may be admitted. (Commission Exhibit No. 425 was marked and received in evidence.)
