(Testimony of Mrs. Lee Harvey Oswald Resumed)

Mr. Rankin.
You are showing us pipe cleaners that you say your husband used to clean the rifle, as you remember
Mrs. Oswald.
Yes.
Mr. Rankin.
How often did he clean it, do you remember?
Mrs. Oswald.
Not too often. I have already told you.
Mr. Rankin.
I offer in evidence Exhibit 122.
The Chairman.
It will be received.
(The article referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 122, and received in evidence.)
Mr. Thorne.
Exhibit 123 contains seven small one ounce dark brown bottles.
Mrs. Oswald.
Lee's brother is a pharmacist. He gave this to us.
Mr. Thorne.
As well as the apparent boxes that they came in.
Mr. Rankin.
Which brother is a pharmacist?
Mrs. Oswald.
Murret.
Mr. Rankin.
You mean his cousin?
Mrs. Oswald.
Yes. In the Russian the word cousin is second brother.
Mr. Rankin.
We offer in evidence Exhibit 123.
The Chairman.
It may be received.
(The article referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 123, and received in evidence.)
Mr. Thorne.
Exhibit 124 is a hunting knife in a sheath, approximately a 4- or 5-inch blade.
Mrs. Oswald.
I have never seen this knife.
It is a new knife. And that telescope is also new.
(The article referred to was marked as Commission Exhibit No. 124 for identification.)
Mr. Thorne.
Exhibit 125 is a file cabinet for presumably three by five or five by seven inch cards.
Mrs. Oswald.
Lee kept his printing things in that, pencils.
Mr. Rankin.
The things that he printed his Fair Play for Cuba leaflets on?
Mrs. Oswald.
Yes.
Mr. Rankin.
Pencils and materials that he used in connection with that matter?
Mrs. Oswald.
Yes.
Mr. Rankin.
Did he have any index cards in that metal case?
Mrs. Oswald.
Yes, he had some.
Mr. Rankin.
You don't know what happened to them?
Mrs. Oswald.
No.
Mr. Rankin.
Do you know what was on those index cards?
Mrs. Oswald.
No.
Mr. Rankin.
A list of any people that you know of?
Mrs. Oswald.
No. I don't know.
Mr. Rankin.
Were those leaflets about Fair Play for Cuba printed?
Mrs. Oswald.
Yes.
Mr. Rankin.
And then did he stamp something on them after he had them printed?
Mrs. Oswald.
He would print his name and address on them.
Mr. Rankin.
I will offer in evidence Exhibit 125.
The Chairman.
It may be admitted.
(The article referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 125, and received in evidence.)
Mr. Rankin.
You don't know what happened to the cards that were in that?
Mrs. Oswald.
No.
Mr. Thorne.
Exhibit 126 is a small hand overnight bag, canvas zipper bag.
Mrs. Oswald.
That is Lee's handbag, and he arrived with it from Mexico City.
Mr. Rankin.
It is one of the bags that you described when you were telling about his bringing one back from Mexico City?
Mrs. Oswald.
He only had this one.
Mr. Rankin.
Exhibit 126 was the only bag that he brought back?
Mrs. Oswald.
Yes.
Mr. Rankin.
We offer in evidence Exhibit 126.
