United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. JENNER. Mrs. Paine, it is your clear recollection that this
document, Commission Exhibit No. 128, a map, is the map that you gave
Lee Harvey Oswald, this was October 7th?
Mrs. PAINE. It was certainly this kind of map, whether it is the
identical map, I couldn't say for sure, but I much prefer the ENCO map
of the city and this is the kind I always get to use. So this is the
kind I had in mind.
Mr. JENNER. So, to the best of your recollection, the coloring has been
changed a little bit because of attempts to draw fingerprints from it?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. But your best recollection now, observing it, is that this
is the document?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Would you examine it carefully and see that there might be
something on it that would arrest your attention as your having placed
thereon or Lee?
Mrs. PAINE. I have examined this carefully and a copy of it.
Mr. JENNER. On other occasions?
Mrs. PAINE. On other occasions, and I could not at any time find a
marking that I had made.
Mr. JENNER. Do you recall having made any markings?
Mrs. PAINE. I do not recall having made any markings on this particular
map. Sometime on some maps I knew I had made remarks where I was going.
Mr. JENNER. Just for the purpose of the record, may I reverse it, and
you see no markings on the reverse side, I take it?
Mrs. PAINE. No; which is Fort Worth, not Dallas, isn't it?
Mr. JENNER. Yes; it is.
All right, now tell us about that incident?
Mrs. PAINE. The map?
Mr. JENNER. Yes.
Mrs. PAINE. I have.
Mr. JENNER. That is all there was to it?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Did you suggest, was there any discussion of, particular
places of employment?
Mrs. PAINE. There was no such discussion.
Mr. JENNER. As to which he might inquire?
Mrs. PAINE. No.
Mr. JENNER. What did he--did you hand him the map?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. And was it opened before you and Lee in your discussions?
Mrs. PAINE. No, no; we didn't discuss. He said, do I have a map, and I
said, yes, I do, you may have it.
Mr. JENNER. You handed it to him, and that was all that occurred?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. And did he place it in his pocket or did he go into his
room or his and Marina's room and place it there?
Mrs. PAINE. He may have already been on his way to the bus station when
this conversation occurred and took it with him.
Mr. JENNER. All right.
I notice what appears to be a notation that the document has not as
yet been offered in evidence, Mr. Chairman, and I offer in evidence,
therefore, as Commission Exhibit No. 128, the document heretofore
identified by that exhibit number.
Mr. McCLOY. It may be admitted.
(The document referred to, heretofore marked as Commission Exhibit No.
128 for identification, was received in evidence.)
Mr. JENNER. Was Marina present during this discussion of his job
hunting?
Mrs. PAINE. I don't recall. I seem to think we were on our way out
already to go in our car to the bus station.
