Miss MURRET. Yes; it is closed down now, but he still has the one
across the river. He had two, one on this side, and----
Mr. LIEBELER. Two so-called universities?
Miss MURRET. Yes, sir. But the one on it St. Charles is closed, and the
one across the river is still operating.
Mr. LIEBELER. And you taught at the one----
Miss MURRET. Across the river. We didn't get paid so we----
Mr. LIEBELER. If I understand, the one you taught at is still
operating, but they haven't paid you your salary, so you quit and
started teaching at Fortier?
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. Who are your parents?
Miss MURRET. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Murret.
Mr. LIEBELER. Your father is also known as Dutz Murret?
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. What is your father's occupation?
Miss MURRET. Well, steamship clerk--I don't know whether it comes under
the jurisdiction of, whether it is under the Mississippi Shipping, or
how they operate, actually.
Mr. LIEBELER. You don't know the name of the company for which he works?
Miss MURRET. I don't know if it is just--the way it is, if there is no
business on one wharf, they call him on another. I just don't know how
that works.
Mr. LIEBELER. And your mother's name is----
Miss MURRET. Lillian Murret, maiden name Claverie.
Mr. LIEBELER. Your mother is the sister of Marguerite Claverie, is she
not----
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. Who is the mother of Lee Harvey Oswald.
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. Are you familiar with your mother's family? Does she have
other brothers and sisters?
Miss MURRET. They are all--most of them are dead. Her brothers all died
when they were quite young, I believe during World War I, and when her
mother died, she was about 33 years old. Her father died when I was
very young, and I don't remember him at all.
Mr. LIEBELER. Your mother's father died when you were a young girl?
Miss MURRET. That is right, and her mother died when she was 33.
Mr. LIEBELER. You mean when----
Miss MURRET. When her mother was 33.
Mr. LIEBELER. When her mother was 33?
Miss MURRET. Yes; I think the eldest child is--I just don't have any
idea.
Mr. LIEBELER. How many brothers and sisters did your mother have?
Miss MURRET. Three sisters, I think, and two brothers.
Mr. LIEBELER. And one of these sisters would have been Mrs. Oswald; is
that correct?
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. So altogether in the family there would have been four
girls and two boys?
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. Your mother's three sisters and the two----
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. All of these three sisters, except for Mrs. Oswald, and
both of the two brothers are deceased, is that correct?
Miss MURRET. One other sister is still living, and the rest are all
dead.
Mr. LIEBELER. What is the other sister's name?
Miss MURRET. Mancy.
Mr. LIEBELER. Is that her last name?
Miss MURRET. That is her first name, and I can hardly remember the last
name.
Mr. LIEBELER. You don't know her last name?
