don't know anything about all of that except what she told me. So then she got a divorce from Mr. Ekdahl, and she settled for not too very much and it wasn't very long before Mr. Ekdahl died, so that was the end of the Ekdahl affair. Mr. JENNER. All right. Now, let me take you back to the beginning now for a few moments, if you will. We had Lee over at the Bethlehem orphanage after he left the house; is that right? Mrs. MURRET. Yes, sir. Mr. JENNER. He was there when he was five years old, and he stayed there until she married Mr. Ekdahl; is that right? Mrs. MURRET. Well, he was in the home awhile first. I mean, he was at my house, I would say, between 1-1/2 and 2 years, and then I couldn't keep him any more. I guess there must have been some dissension or something. Mr. JENNER. What kind of dissension? Mrs. MURRET. She got angry or something, and I might have told her to take her child, you know, or whatever it was, so she put him in with the other two boys in the home then. Mr. JENNER. She was quick tempered, would you say? Mrs. MURRET. Well, that's what I mean; yes. Mr. JENNER. She would flare up in a moment; is that right? Mrs. MURRET. Yes; you see, she was always right. She couldn't take anything from anybody, in other words, or you might say she was not reasonable, and especially in some things that are right, because you can keep doing and doing and doing, but then you get to the point where the other party never seems to be doing anything. Mr. JENNER. She didn't seem to exhibit a full measure of appreciation that was warranted, is that what you mean? Mrs. MURRET. Well, I didn't keep the child for anything like that. I kept him for himself and for the love of God, and so forth, and we liked the child, but of course we had our own obligation with our own children, and this was her life. She made her own life. Of course, I do say that maybe she made it, and then she didn't make it, because you see, it's just the way things happened. Now, whether she was the cause of these things happening or not, I don't know, but she seemed to be a victim of all these circumstances. Mr. JENNER. But they kept repeating themselves, a number of them; isn't that right? Mrs. MURRET. Yes; they kept coming along; that's right. Mr. JENNER. Now, she then married Mr. Ekdahl; is that right? Mrs. MURRET. Yes. Mr. JENNER. And you had met him only once, I believe you said? Mrs. MURRET. Once; that's right. Mr. JENNER. Were you at the wedding? Mrs. MURRET. Oh, no; I didn't go to the wedding. They were married in Texas. Mr. JENNER. Were you advised that she was about to marry him? Mrs. MURRET. I don't think I knew that she was about to marry him; no, sir. I just received a picture of her and Ekdahl on their wedding trip, and she had written on it, "Happily married," and she sent a picture of the house that they lived in. It was a very nice place, and they seemed to be doing O.K., you know.
