United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Miss MURRET. Yes; and then it came out in the paper, or it was in Time
magazine, or something, that she was a Quaker, so I discarded all those
ideas also, claiming where she was, I guess, just purely interested in
the language, and you would see people who spoke that language.
Mr. LIEBELER. Were you suspicious of Mrs. Paine? Were you suspicious of
Mrs. Paine in any way?
Miss MURRET. At first, because she sought all of the Russian speaking
people, and she spoke Russian herself.
Mr. LIEBELER. Did you indicate that the Secret Service had discussed
this with you about the professor?
Miss MURRET. No; my mother told me.
Mr. LIEBELER. Your mother told this to the Secret Service man?
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. Were you there when she talked to the Secret Service man?
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. Do you remember anything else about this professor that
we could use to find out who he was, or who he is?
Miss MURRET. No; I don't. But it probably would be easy enough to find,
if he has a daughter who is a student over there, and I don't think
that that would be too difficult to find.
Mr. LIEBELER. After he and Marina had moved into the apartment on
Magazine Street, did you ever go to the apartment?
Miss MURRET. I just drove him over there once or--I think we drove him
home once or twice.
Mr. LIEBELER. Were you ever inside of the apartment?
Miss MURRET. Once I went in the back part.
Mr. LIEBELER. What kind of place was it?
Miss MURRET. Well, they had a back part of the house, and I never
did know whether it was a double, or what, or just the back part was
arranged to make an apartment. But he had called one Sunday afternoon
and said that Marina wanted to come over there. So I think we picked
them up in the afternoon and brought them, but usually if they came,
they took the bus, and we always took them home.
Mr. LIEBELER. How many times did you see the Oswalds after that?
Miss MURRET. On Magazine?
Mr. LIEBELER. That you recall? Yes?
Miss MURRET. I think they came over one day, one Saturday, and then a
half a day on Sunday, or this might have been the same day--I don't
know--and Labor Day, because I was not here from the beginning of July
until September.
Mr. LIEBELER. Am I correct in understanding then that the last time
you saw Oswald was on Labor Day, 1963, which would have been early in
September?
Miss MURRET. Yes.
Mr. LIEBELER. Is that the time that you went crabbing with him?
Miss MURRET. No.
Mr. LIEBELER. What was the occasion that you met him on Labor Day? What
did you do?
Miss MURRET. They called up, or Lee called up and said that Marina
wanted to come over, that she was tired of sitting at home. But my
mother had said, because the last time that they were there and they
were there all day, with the language barrier, my mother was exhausted,
so she told him to come in the afternoon. And this they did, about 3 or
4 they came over in the bus.
Mr. LIEBELER. Did they come over on the bus?
