United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. JENNER. I am trying to find out what you recall.
Mrs. GIBSON. Well, you know, I can't recall when she was there. I know
when she wasn't there now more than I did before, from placing his
birthday and the box and that, I know she wasn't there then.
Mr. JENNER. Wasn't where?
Mrs. GIBSON. At my place. I know she wasn't there then, because she
came to visit me from Fort Worth with Mrs. Hall. But how long she had
been with Mrs. Hall must not have been too long.
Mr. JENNER. The thing that bothers me, also, Mrs. Gibson, Mrs. Hall
entered the hospital on the 18th of October.
Mrs. GIBSON. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. That is Lee's birthday. She was at your place the preceding
day?
Mrs. GIBSON. I think it was that night that she got in the accident.
That is why I said it was very shocking when I heard, you know, that
she had been in an accident.
Mr. JENNER. And at the time she had her accident, Marina was living
with the Halls'?
Mrs. GIBSON. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Was living at Mrs. Hall's home?
Mrs. GIBSON. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Your husband Gary recalls that while Lee was at the YMCA,
that he came to visit at your home.
Mrs. GIBSON. That is possible.
Mr. JENNER. And his recollection was that Marina was with you at that
time.
Mrs. GIBSON. Well, she couldn't have been.
Mr. JENNER. All right. Could it be that she stayed with you for a few
days after he left the YMCA and before they moved into the Elsbeth
Street home or apartment?
Mrs. GIBSON. Well, I don't know how it could be possible, because when
we moved her from Fort Worth, she was at Mrs. Hall's. Now whether she
stayed with me while Mrs. Hall was in New York, she couldn't have
because she was, Mrs. Hall was in New York when we moved Marina, see,
and Marina was there.
Now, I suppose it is possible that she stayed with us, then, but I
remember she stayed with Mrs. Hall after the accident because Mrs. Hall
needed her. She couldn't get around. I know she was there before the
accident because of the baptism and Lee's birthday. So it leads me to
believe she was there the whole time, you know.
Mr. JENNER. Do you recall when the Oswalds left the Mercedes Street
apartment?
Mrs. GIBSON. No; I don't know when they left that. They moved, from
there they moved all her stuff to Mrs. Hall's.
Mr. JENNER. Right from the Mercedes apartment?
Mrs. GIBSON. I guess they must have. All the stuff was there.
Mr. JENNER. Do you recall an occasion when your father moved Marina and
the baby from the Elsbeth Street apartment to Mrs. Meller's?
Mrs. GIBSON. No.
Mr. JENNER. Do you recall the Oswalds living at 214 Neely Street?
Mrs. GIBSON. Where was that?
Mr. JENNER. That is just about a block from the Elsbeth Street
apartment, which they moved into from the Elsbeth Street apartment.
Mrs. GIBSON. That must have been after I left.
Mr. JENNER. Yes; it was.
Mrs. GIBSON. No.
Mr. JENNER. You just don't recall anything about that?
Mrs. GIBSON. No; I wasn't there.
Mr. JENNER. Now, you do recall Marina staying 3 or 4 days.
