United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. TAYLOR. Yes; the only reason I remember about Mr. Hall was by
associating it with either Midland or Abilene--I don't remember which
one. It was west Texas anyway. And he was living there at the time.
Mr. JENNER. And her leaving your home then--there was no cause or
reason for it other than that, as you now understand or from your
memory of it, that Mrs. Hall had been involved in an automobile
accident, was partially bedridden, was having some difficulty in any
respect; she was then by herself because her husband was in west Texas
and at that time they were, as you understood, separated?
Mr. TAYLOR. Or divorced. I don't remember which.
Mr. JENNER. And Marina went to Mrs. Hall's home in Fort Worth to help
care for Mrs. Hall?
Mr. TAYLOR. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Now, that would take us to about the last week in
November--somewhere in that area--I mean September--is that correct?
Mr. TAYLOR. September; I should think; yes. Toward the end of
September, and possibly even early in October--again, due to time, this
is all quite vague--I had Lee with me. I don't remember where I got
him. But Lee and my wife, Alex, and I went to Fort Worth and picked up
Marina and their child and all of the Oswald's belongings that had,
through this period, been stored at Mrs. Hall's, and brought them to
Dallas.
Mr. JENNER. Now, you went to Mrs. Hall's--is that where you went?
Mr. TAYLOR. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. When you reached the Halls' you picked up the Oswalds'
house paraphernalia, clothing and other things----
Mr. TAYLOR. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Or whatever had been stored at the Halls' you picked up?
Mr. TAYLOR. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Now, your recollection doesn't serve you at the moment to
be more specific as to how this came about?
Mr. TAYLOR. It doesn't. Not at all. I can't even remember now where I
got Lee that day. I wish I could--for several reasons you are probably
aware of. But I don't remember.
And, at any rate, we went to Fort Worth----
Mr. JENNER. Excuse me.
Do you recall being interviewed by two agents of the FBI on the 29th of
January 1964.
Mr. TAYLOR. I think so.
Mr. JENNER. Would it refresh your recollection did you tell those
agents at that time that you picked up Lee Oswald at the curb of the
YMCA in Dallas and drove to Fort Worth to the Hall residence where
Marina was living?
Mr. TAYLOR. Well, it is refreshing to my memory, but I would like to
say this about it.
