Mr. LIEBELER. Eugene Murret is studying at the Catholic seminary?
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. The seminary is in Mobile, Ala.?
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. John Murret does what?
Miss MURRET. He works for the Squibbs Pharmaceutical Co.
Mr. LIEBELER. Here in New Orleans?
Miss MURRET. New Orleans.
Mr. LIEBELER. Is Joyce married?
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. What is her last name?
Miss MURRET. O'Brien.
Mr. LIEBELER. And she lives in New Orleans?
Miss MURRET. No; in Beaumont, Tex.
Mr. LIEBELER. Now we will have the two brothers of your mother, and
their names were what?
Miss MURRET. One was John.
Mr. LIEBELER. John?
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. And the other?
Miss MURRET. I think Charles. I didn't know them.
Mr. LIEBELER. Do they have children living of which you know?
Miss MURRET. No; they died when they were very young--1918 and 1919,
during World War I.
Mr. LIEBELER. They do not have any children surviving them?
Miss MURRET. No; there were none.
Mr. LIEBELER. As I understand it, your mother's sister, Marguerite, has
three sons?
Miss MURRET. Right.
Mr. LIEBELER. Lee Harvey Oswald, Robert Oswald, and John Pic?
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. What contact have you had personally with Marguerite
Oswald over the years?
Miss MURRET. Well, when I was younger, she and mother were always on
the outs. I remember her then, and then she would move away and come
back and occasionally she would stay with us. The last time she moved
back to New Orleans was when she lived on--she would stay 1 or 2 days
or so----
Mr. LIEBELER. And this last time was when?
Miss MURRET. She had been away, and then I hadn't see her, but when she
was on Exchange Alley, I think she visited one day. But when they were
on Exchange, living on Exchange Alley, of course, I used to see her
occasionally. I mean when she would come over and visit, but then she
moved to Texas, and I hadn't seen her for ages.
Mr. LIEBELER. So then you haven't seen her since she lived here in New
Orleans on Exchange Alley, is that correct?
Miss MURRET. Yes, sir.
Mr. LIEBELER. Do you remember approximately when it was that she lived
on Exchange Alley?
Miss MURRET. I don't really remember.
Mr. LIEBELER. Do you remember the address where she lived on Exchange
Alley?
Miss MURRET. No, sir.
Mr. LIEBELER. Do you have any recollection of where Mrs. Oswald had
been prior to the time that she moved back to New Orleans and lived on
Exchange Alley?
Miss MURRET. I think they were in Texas, but I don't think we heard
from them when she was somewhere else.
Mr. LIEBELER. Did you have any occasion to meet Lee Harvey Oswald when
you saw Marguerite, during the time that she lived on Exchange Alley?
Miss MURRET. Well, then he was going to Beauregard, so I would see him
occasionally.
Mr. LIEBELER. Was that Beauregard Junior High School?
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. Can you remember generally on what occasions you would
meet Lee Harvey Oswald?
