Mrs. Gibson.

I didn't want to go through all the rigmarole of getting a divorce; no. I wanted to get out of Dallas right then.

Until November, the last part of November of 1962; yes.

Had you been separated prior to that time?

Mr. Jenner.

While living at 3519 Fairmount in Dallas during the year 1962, did you become acquainted with a lady by the name of Marina Oswald?

Mrs. Gibson.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

Did you also become acquainted with a gentleman by the name of Lee Harvey Oswald?

Mrs. Gibson.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

With whom did you become acquainted first?

Mrs. Gibson.

Marina Oswald.

Mr. Jenner.

Tell me when, as closely as you can fix it. Let me put it this way. Tell me first the circumstances under which you became acquainted, what led up to it and how it occurred, and then fix as closely as you can when in 1962 you did become acquainted.

Mrs. Gibson.

Well, my stepmother and my father called me up.

Mr. Jenner.

Your stepmother is Jeanne De Mohrenschildt?

Mrs. Gibson.

Jeanne; and my father called me up one evening and asked me

Mr. Jenner.

At your apartment?

Mrs. Gibson.

At my apartment; and asked me if I would please take care of Marina Oswald's child while she went to the dentist, and could she stay overnight with me because she had two appointments in a row, one on one day and one the next day, and I said 'all right. And as for the date, I imagine you know it better than I do.

Mr. Jenner.

I don't know anything better than you do.

Mrs. Gibson.

If you give me the date on the pads. I don't remember the dates at all.

Mr. Jenner.

Was it the month of September?

Mrs. Gibson.

No. As I said, I thought it was before September.

Mr. Jenner.

Before September?

Mrs. Gibson.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

Do you remember anything about the weather?

Mrs. Gibson.

It was very hot, but I don't remember the month. It could have been--

Mr. Jenner.

Could it have been in August?

Mrs. Gibson.

It could have been the later part of August. It seems to me that would be about right.

Mr. Jenner.

Can you recall anything about what your father and/or your stepmother said to you in identifying these people? You were naturally curious as to who they were?

Mrs. Gibson.

They told me that they were recently, Marina and Lee were recently here from Russia, and hadn't been in Dallas very long, or Fort Worth, wherever they were ,staying, and that she had a child the same age as mine, and that my stepmother thought it would be very nice if we got acquainted. And she said Marina was around my age, and asked if I would please help them out since they didn't have any room in their apartment to keep her while she had these dental appointments.

Mr. Jenner.

That is, they didn't have any room in the De Mohrenschildts' apartment?
