United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. JENNER. Let's see if I have your family right now, if you will bear
with me. You have a daughter, Mrs. Emile, and her given name is Joyce,
and her husband's name is O'Brien, and they live at 1615 Fairway,
Beaumont, Tex., is that right?
Mrs. MURRET. Right.
Mr. JENNER. You have a son, Dr. Charles W. Murret, a dentist, who has
an office at 1207 West Bernard, Chalmette, La.; you have a son Gene,
and that's spelled E-u-g-e-n-e, who is studying for the priesthood, and
who lives at 3959 Loyola Avenue, Mobile, Ala., is that right?
Mrs. MURRET. Right.
Mr. JENNER. Now, he has a designation of S.J. What is that?
Mrs. MURRET. Society of Jesus.
Mr. JENNER. And he's the boy who attended law school, is that right?
Mrs. MURRET. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. And a fine student?
Mrs. MURRET. He certainly was.
Mr. JENNER. And he is unmarried?
Mrs. MURRET. Well, you can't be married and be a Jesuit.
Mr. JENNER. And your son John lives at 6622 Louis XIV, is that right?
Mrs. MURRET. Right.
Mr. JENNER. In New Orleans?
Mrs. MURRET. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. And then your daughter Marilyn, she lives with you, is that
right?
Mrs. MURRET. Right.
Mr. JENNER. She's unmarried?
Mrs. MURRET. Unmarried. She says you have to want to get married to get
married.
Mr. JENNER. She doesn't want to get married?
Mrs. MURRET. That's right. She says that's not for her. Now, Charles
didn't see Lee at all.
Mr. JENNER. Charles is your dentist son?
Mrs. MURRET. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. But your daughter Marilyn did, and John did, and you have
told us about Gene and your daughter Joyce--they did, is that right?
Mrs. MURRET. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. And of course your husband?
Mrs. MURRET. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Were you ever in their apartment on Magazine Street, Mrs.
Murret?
Mrs. MURRET. Just that morning when we went there.
Mr. JENNER. That's the morning that they arrived, Mrs. Paine and
Marina--arrived from Irving, Tex.?
Mrs. MURRET. Right. We took them home that night, and I was there then.
Mr. JENNER. Did Lee ever speak of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy or
Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy?
Mrs. MURRET. He said one time that he thought Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy
was a very fine person, and that he admired her for going around with
her husband, and so forth, but he never spoke about that again, or
never said anything about it. In fact, I think he said he liked him.
Mr. JENNER. Liked President Kennedy?
Mrs. MURRET. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. What about Lee Oswald's habits? Was he a drinking man, for
example?
