Mr. Pic.

Oh, that is way across town, sir. That is in the city park area. In fact, it was only a block from city park.

Mr. Jenner.

And Lee was then--your mother had him with her because at this time, December 1942, he was just a little over 3 years old.

Mr. Pic.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

The records show that the 1010 Bartholomew home was sold on the 16th of January 1942. Does that refresh your recollection as to sequence that prior to her sale of the house she moved out of the house and over to Sherwood Drive and the placing of you boys in the Bethlehem orphanage school was all part of the picture? She sold the Bartholomew house, entered you boys in the orphanage in January 1942.

Mr. Pic.

You want to know if I think she sold the house before we were placed in the home?

Mr. Jenner.

Yes.

Mr. Pic.

I don't know, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

But after you were in the home, that is the Bethlehem Orphanage Home that house was disposed of in some fashion at least?

Mr. Pic.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

And she moved into another house on Sherwood Drive?

Mr. Pic.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

By the way, do you remember anybody, an uncle of yours by the name of John Oswald?

Mr. Pic.

No, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

Or--?

Mr. Pic.

I remember an uncle on my stepfather's side. I don't recall his name, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

W. S. Oswald, is that familiar to you?

Mr. Pic.

No, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

But other than an uncle on your stepfather's side, that is you

don't recall his name, his first name?

Mr. Pic.

No, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

His name was Oswald, though?

Mr. Pic.

I know it was on his side, sir. It may have been his sister, I don't know. Maybe his brother-in-law.

Mr. Jenner.

But you don't know.
I will identify as John Pic Exhibit No. 3 another application blank, this one dated January 3, 1942, for admission of Robert Edward Oswald, Jr., to the Evangelical Lutheran Bethlehem Orphan Asylum, which is dated January 3, 1942, and direct you, Sergeant to the signature appearing on that exhibit reading "Mrs. Lee Oswald." Are you familiar with that signature?

Mr. Pic.

That is the first time I have ever seen her use the word "Lee."

Mr. Jenner.

But the handwriting; that is her handwriting?

Mr. Pic.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

I offer in evidence a document now identified as John Pic Exhibit No. 3.
(John Pic Exhibit No. 3 was marked for identification.)

Mr. Jenner.

Now, directing your attention to that exhibit which shows the entry of your brother Robert in the orphanage asylum on January 3, 1942, is it a fact that you and your brother Robert entered the asylum at the same time?

Mr. Pic.

To the best of my recollection, yes, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

I direct your attention to this. There appears in the line designated "mother" written in longhand Marguerite Claverie Oswald, address, 1010 Bartholomew, and then right above it there is written 831 Pauline Street--January 28.
Do you recall your mother moving with Lee to a place on Pauline Street in January of 1942?

Mr. Pic.

No, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

All you recall is that she and Lee did move to a place, another place from the 1010 Bartholomew address?

Mr. Pic.

Well, it shows it there. I thought it was Sherwood Forest, I don't know.

Mr. Jenner.

It might have been shortly after that?
