This contains several pages--several sheets--three sheets which seem to be one continuous letter.
Mrs. Oswald.
A letter from Ruth Paine.
Mr. Thorns.
A three-page letter. Exhibit No. 91 contains an envelope.

From Erick Titovetz.
Mr. Rankin.
We offer in evidence Exhibits 66 through 91, inclusive.
The Chairman.
You have looked over all these, have you, Mr. Thorne, and your client has identified them?
Mr. Thorne.
Yes, sir.
The Chairman.
They may be admitted.
(The documents referred to were marked Commission Exhibit Nos. 66 through 91, inclusive, and received in evidence.)
Mr. Rankin.
Mrs. Oswald, we will show you photostatic copies of various writings of your husband. As you look at them, would you tell us what each one is, insofar as you recognize them, please?
Mr. Thorne.
This is Exhibit 92, which is a writing, a photocopy of a writing.
Mr. Rankin.
Do you recognize that exhibit, Mrs. Oswald?
Mrs. Oswald.
Lee's handwriting. But I have never seen this. More correctly, I have seen it, but I have never read it.
Mr. Rankin.
So you don't know what it purports to be, I take it.
Mrs. Oswald.
Yes.
Mr. Rankin.
That is, you do not?
Mrs. Oswald.
No.
Mr. Rankin.
But you do recognize his handwriting throughout?
Mrs. Oswald.
Yes.
Mr. Thorne.
May I point out to the Commission, please, this is in English.
This is handwritten in English and it is typewritten in English.
Mr. Rankin.
We offer in evidence Exhibit 92.
The Chairman.
It will be admitted.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 92, and received in evidence.)
Mr. Rankin.
I should like to inform the Commission that Exhibit 92 purports to be the book that Lee Oswald wrote about conditions in the Soviet Union.
The Chairman.
The one that was dictated to the stenographer?
Mr. Rankin.
Yes, that is right.
Mr. Redlich.
He had had written notes, and she transcribed them.
Mr. Thorne.
The next exhibit is Exhibit No. 93, many pages, handwritten, in English.
Mr. Rankin.
Mrs. Oswald, will you tell us what that is, if you know.
Mrs. Oswald.
No, I don't know.
Mr. Rankin.
Do you know whether it is in the handwriting of your husband?
Mrs. Oswald.
Yes, this is Lee's handwriting. These are all his papers. I don't know about them. Everything is in English. I don't know.
Mr. Rankin.
We offer in evidence Exhibit 93.
The Chairman.
Exhibit 93 may be admitted.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 93, and received in evidence.)
Mr. Rankin.
I should like to advise the Commission that this Exhibit 93 purports to be a resume of his Marine Corps experience, and some additional minor notes.
Mr. Thorne.
Exhibit No. 94 is photocopies of many pages of handwriting, which is in English.
Mrs. Oswald.
I don't know what that is. It is Lee's handwriting.
Mr. Rankin.
We offer in evidence Exhibit 94.
The Chairman.
It may be admitted.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 94, and received in evidence.)
Mr. Dulles.
Do we know what that is?
Mr. Rankin.
Exhibit 94 consists of handwritten pages on which the book about Russia, Exhibit 92, was typewritten.
