(Testimony of Mrs. Donald Gibson)
Mrs. Gibson.
to visit me from Fort Worth with Mrs. Hall. But how long she had been with Mrs. Hall must not have been too long.
Mr. Jenner.
The thing that bothers me, also, Mrs. Gibson, Mrs. Hall entered the hospital on the 18th of October.
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
That is Lee's birthday. She was at your place the preceding day?
Mrs. Gibson.
I think it was that night that she got in the accident. That is why I said it was very shocking when I beard, you know, that she had been in an accident.
Mr. Jenner.
And at the time she had her accident, Marina was living with the Halls'?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
Was living at Mrs. Hall's home?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
Your husband Gary recalls that while Lee was at the YMCA, that he came to visit at your home.
Mrs. Gibson.
That is possible.
Mr. Jenner.
And his recollection was that Marina was with you at that time.
Mrs. Gibson.
Well, she couldn't have been.
Mr. Jenner.
All right. Could it be that she stayed with you for a few days after he left the YMCA and before they moved into the Elsbeth Street home or apartment?
Mrs. GIBSON. Well, I don't know how it could be possible, because when we moved her from Fort Worth, she was at Mrs. Hall's. Now whether she stayed with me while Mrs. Hall was in New York, she couldn't have because she was, Mrs. Hall was in New York when we moved Marina, see, and Marina was there.
Now, I suppose it is possible that she stayed with us, then, but I remember she stayed with Mrs. Hall after the accident because Mrs. Hall needed her. She couldn't get around. I know she was there before the accident because of the baptism and Lee's birthday. So it leads me to believe she was there the whole time, you know.
Mr. Jenner.
Do you recall when the Oswalds left the Mercedes Street apartment?
Mrs. Gibson.
No; I don't know when they left that. They moved, from there they moved all her stuff to Mrs. Hall's.
Mr. Jenner.
Right from the Mercedes apartment?
Mrs. Gibson.
I guess they must have. All the stuff was there.
Mr. Jenner.
Do you recall an occasion when your father moved Marina and the baby from the Elsbeth Street apartment to Mrs. Meller's?
Mrs. Gibson.
No.
Mr. Jenner.
Do you recall the Oswalds living at 214 Neely Street?
Mrs. Gibson.
Where was that?
Mr. Jenner.
That is just about a block from the Elsbeth Street apartment, which they moved into from the Elsbeth Street apartment.
Mrs. Gibson.
That must have been after I left.
Mr. Jenner.
Yes; it was.
Mrs. Gibson.
No.
Mr. Jenner.
You just don't recall anything about that?
Mrs. Gibson.
No; I wasn't there.
Mr. Jenner.
Now, you do recall Marina staying 3 or 4 days.
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
Can you grasp in your recollection why? What led up to that?
Mrs. Gibson.
I think it was the period before she went to Mrs. Hall's. It must have been after Lee lost his job, or quit.
Mr. Jenner.
In Fort Worth?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes; and before he got the new one. It must have been then. And I think it was while they were trying to find her a place to live, while he was job hunting.
Mr. Jenner.
And before he got his job with Jaggars-Chiles-Stovall?
Mrs. Gibson.
It must have been.
Mr. Jenner.
On the 12th of October? You see that is a 4-day period, Mrs. Gibson.
