Mrs. Oswald.

I would have noticed if he had had an object with him.

Mr. Liebeler.

Now, Mrs. Whitworth, you testified that when this man came in the store he did have an object with him about 15 inches long wrapped in brown paper; isn't that right?

Mrs. Whitworth.

Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

And you also testified that this man asked about a part for a gun; isn't that right?

Mrs. Whitworth.

Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

And you know he had some part of the gun wrapped in this package; didn't he?

Mrs. Whitworth.

Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

a. And you also testified that this man asked about a part for a gun; isn't that right?

Mrs. Whitworth.

Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

And you thought that he had some part of the gun wrapped in this package; isn't that right? Mrs. WHITWORTH. Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

Do you understand that, Mrs. Oswald?

Mrs. Oswald.

Even if he did, I-would not have understood what he was saying ,because I simply did not know the language, but I don't recall him having any object in his hands such as that referred to here.

Mr. Liebeler.

At any time; is that correct?

Mrs. Oswald.

No; at no time.

Mr. Mckenzie.

She is saying he went back to the car and got this part?

Mr. Liebeler.

What were you saying, Mrs. Whitworth?

Mrs. Whitworth.

He went back to the car and took whatever he had in his hand--he must have put it in the car, because I never noticed any more; she came in, you know, but he came back in the store before she did, because she followed him in and in the store I don't see why that she couldn't remember it, it's different, you know, from other stores that you would go in where you bought soft goods.

Mr. Liebeler.

Now, you say he brought this package into the store?

Mrs. Whitworth.

Yes.

Mr. Liebeler.

Mr. McKenzie, do you wish to inquire as to this package?

Mr. Mckenzie.

Mrs. Whitworth, when this man whom you have identified as Lee Harvey Oswald, whom you know now was Lee Harvey Oswald, from his pictures in the paper, came into your store, you stated that he had a package in his hand about 15 to 18 inches long; is that correct?

Mrs. Whitworth.

No; I saw him.

Mr. Mckenzie.

I say, you had seen that and stated that he had such a package?

Mrs. Whitworth.

I saw him; yes.

Mr. Mckenzie.

How was the package wrapped?

Mrs. Whitworth.

Loosely in brown paper and you know, it didn't have any strings on it, as far as I remember--it was loosely tied.

Mr. Mckenzie.

Well, was it a package in a bag ?

Mrs. Whitworth.

No; he held it with one hand.

Mr. Mckenzie.

He held it with one hand?

Mrs. Whitworth.

Yes.

Mr. Mckenzie.

Did it look like a piece of pipe or did it look like a gun stock, or did it look like a piece of wood or what did it look like that was in the package?

Mrs. Whitworth.

I didn't see it.

Mr. Mckenzie.

How big around was the package?

Mrs. Whitworth.

It wasn't large I'd say it might have been this big [indicating].

Mr. Mckenzie.

You are making a sign with your hands there, with both hands--

Mrs. Whitworth.

What is that about 2 or 3 inches in diameter?

Mr. Mckenzie.

All right.

Mrs. Whitworth.

And then it was some 15 or 18 inches long.

Mr. Mckenzie.

So, the package that he had was 2 or 3 inches in diameter and approximately 18 inches long; is that right?
