Mr. Jenner.

Approximately when, please?

Mr. Oswald.

Two occasions, the first occasion being approximately the last week in June, 1962.

Mr. Jenner.

What was that occasion?

Mr. Oswald.

He had come over to see Lee and meet Marina and talk with them in his native Russian language.

Mr. Jenner.

Was he accompanied by anyone?

Mr. Oswald.

Not on this first occasion, sir, if my memory serves me correctly. I believe he was by himself.

Mr. Jenner.

Was anything said in your presence that you understood, having in mind that he spoke Russian at least in part of that occasion, as to how he became aware that Lee and Marina were residing with you temporarily?

Mr. Oswald.

We were expecting Mr. Gregory to come by that night. The preceding 2 or 3 days, I understood from Lee, that when he inquired at one of the bureaus of the Texas employment agencies in Fort Worth, that someone that he had talked to about a job had set up an appointment with Lee to go see Mr. Gregory, since Lee could speak Russian and write the Russian language, they thought perhaps Mr. Gregory might know of some contact that he could place Lee with, where Lee might obtain a job speaking and writing the Russian language. I understood from Lee----

Mr. Jenner.

That is the result of discussions in your presence in your home?

Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir; that is correct.

Mr. Jenner.

By Lee and Marina?

Mr. Oswald.

By Lee to me.

Mr. Jenner.

Lee to you?

Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir. And I understood that----

Mr. Jenner.

Mr. Oswald, if you could, if it is the result of Lee having told you, would you please state it in those terms rather than that you understood, because your understanding may be based on hearsay that is not the fact.

Mr. Oswald.

Lee in our conversation told me that he went to Mr. Gregory's office on the first occasion to meet Mr. Gregory.

Mr. Jenner.

And that would be before this last week in June when Mr. Gregory visited your home?

Mr. Oswald.

That is correct, sir.

Mr. Dulles.

What is Mr. Gregory's profession, do you happen to know?

Mr. Oswald.

He was a consultant geologist. On this first occasion that Lee spent 1 or 2 hours talking with
Mr. Gregory, and at the end of this occasion, Mr. Gregory gave Lee a letter to the effect, which I did read---

Mr. Jenner.

Did your brother Lee exhibit this letter to you?

Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir, he did.

Mr. Jenner.

Have you seen the letter from the time that you read it to the present time?

Mr. Oswald.

No, sir, 1 have not.

Mr. Jenner.

And as far as you know the letter doesn't exist. You don't know whether it exists?

Mr. Oswald.

That is correct, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

Would you please recite the content of it as you now recall it?

Mr. Oswald.

That it stated that Lee Harvey Oswald was competent to speak and write the Russian language fluently. That is my general remembrance of this letter.

Mr. Jenner.

Was it signed? Did it have a signature?

Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir, it did.

Mr. Jenner.

Was it on a letterhead?

Mr. Oswald.

I believe it was, sir.

Mr. Dulles.

Was Mr. Gregory a Russian by origin as far as you know?

Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir, he was.

Mr. Jenner.

Did your brother tell you that?

Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir, he did.

Mr. Dulles.

Was he a naturalized American, or don't you know?

Mr. Oswald.

This I do not know, sir. But during this conversation, he told me about Mr. Gregory to the extent that he had come from Russia approximately
