Mrs. GIBSON. No; my stepmother brought her and the child.
Mr. JENNER. That was in the morning?
Mrs. GIBSON. In the morning; that is right.
Mr. JENNER. Describe your apartment, will you please?
Mrs. GIBSON. How do you mean describe it?
Mr. JENNER. How many rooms, living room, bedroom, two bedrooms,
kitchen, dining room?
Mrs. GIBSON. Well, there are five rooms, I guess, in all.
Mr. JENNER. And they consisted of?
Mrs. GIBSON. Living room, dining room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom.
There was a small adjoining room to the bedroom but it wouldn't be
classified as a whole room.
Mr. JENNER. Sort of more of a dressing room?
Mrs. GIBSON. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. For what purpose were you employing that room at that time?
Mrs. GIBSON. My child slept in that room.
Mr. JENNER. Where did you folks, that is yourself and your husband,
normally sleep?
Mrs. GIBSON. We slept in the living room.
Mr. JENNER. That was your normal practice?
Mrs. GIBSON. That is right.
Mr. JENNER. So that the bedroom you mentioned was not occupied?
Mrs. GIBSON. No; it wasn't.
Mr. JENNER. It was not in use, rather, at the time that Marina stayed
with you?
Mrs. GIBSON. No; it was used as a playroom really for my son Curtis.
Mr. JENNER. Your stepmother brought Marina and the baby to your home?
Mrs. GIBSON. That is right.
Mr. JENNER. Was your husband home at that time?
Mrs. GIBSON. No; I don't think so.
Mr. JENNER. That is it was at a time when he would have departed for
work?
Mrs. GIBSON. Yes; I believe he had already gone to work.
Mr. JENNER. You said that Marina was to receive some dental care?
Mrs. GIBSON. That is right.
Mr. JENNER. Did she remain in the apartment all day after she arrived?
Mrs. GIBSON. After she came back from the dentist, she stayed there,
I think she had a tooth, one or two pulled, and she stayed there that
afternoon, after she came back from the dentist.
Mr. JENNER. Your stepmother brought her and then your stepmother took
her to the dentist?
Mrs. GIBSON. That is right.
Mr. JENNER. They returned?
Mrs. GIBSON. That is right.
Mr. JENNER. That afternoon.
Mrs. GIBSON. That is right.
Mr. JENNER. Did Marina remain and the baby remain with you overnight
and into the next day?
Mrs. GIBSON. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Where did Marina and her child stay that evening?
Mrs. GIBSON. They slept in the bedroom.
Mr. JENNER. You didn't lodge her child, June, in the room in which your
son Curtis was?
Mrs. GIBSON. No.
Mr. JENNER. When did you first meet Lee Harvey Oswald?
Mrs. GIBSON. I believe it was on the evening of the first day that
Marina stayed with me.
Mr. JENNER. Did someone bring him or did he come alone?
Mrs. GIBSON. As far as I know, he came alone.
Mr. JENNER. What was your impression as to the place from which he had
come?
Mrs. GIBSON. I don't know where he had come from.
Mr. JENNER. But he came alone?
Mrs. GIBSON. As far as I know; yes.
Mr. JENNER. Was Marina able to speak English?
Mrs. GIBSON. No; not a word.
