(Testimony of John Edward Pic Resumed)

Mr. Jenner.
In whose handwriting is the envelope?
Mr. Pic.
Lee Harvey Oswald's.
Mr. Jenner.
And whose handwriting is that which appears in the inside of that card?
Mr. Pic.
My mother's, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
Is there any handwriting of Lee Harvey Oswald on that card?
Mr. Pic.
No, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
The card was enclosed, was it in the exhibit marked John Pic No. 13-A?
Mr. Pic.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
Turn to Exhibit No. 14. That is a note you received from your brother?
Mr. Pic.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
Is that in his handwriting?
Mr. Pic.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
It is undated.
Mr. Pic.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
Do you have the envelope in which that was enclosed?
Mr. Pic.
Sir, it may be Exhibit No. 13-A, I don't know.
Mr. Jenner.
It may have been enclosed in Exhibit No. 13-A?
Mr. Pic.
It may have been enclosed in Exhibit No. 10 -A, I don't know, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
In any event, it is in the handwriting of your brother?
Mr. Pic.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
And you received it in due course some time?
Mr. Pic.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
On or about the holiday period-
Mr. Pic.
I would guess that Exhibit No. 15 goes in envelope Exhibit No. 13-A.
Mr. Jenner.
All right. Would you put them in there?
Mr. Pic.
And the date on envelope Exhibit No. 13-A is 13 December, and this is a Christmas card from Lee, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
That Christmas card on the inside is the handwriting of your mother, however?
Mr. Pic.
No, sir. Lee Harvey Oswald.
Mr. Jenner.
All right. Now, the exhibit marked John PIC. No. 14, do you have a recollection as to the envelope in which that was enclosed?
Mr. Pic.
No, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
Do you have a recollection as to approximately when you received it, that is John Pic Exhibit No. 14?
Mr. Pic.
I would speculate and say that Exhibit No. 10 goes in envelope Exhibit No. 10--A, and that Exhibit No. 14 either came some little period of time before or after the contents in envelope Exhibit No. 10-A.
Mr. Jenner.
That is while you were away at military school?
Mr. Pic.
No, sir; this is when I am in the Coast Guard.
Mr. Jenner.
All right. All those exhibits I have now identified, that is after I identified your mother's letters, are in the handwriting of Lee Oswald?
Mr. Pic.
All except Exhibit No. 13, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
And Exhibit No. 13 is in the handwriting of your mother?
Mr. Pic.
That is correct, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
It appears to be and is a Christmas card?
Mr. Pic.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
From its contents are you able to tell us approximately when you received that?
Mr. Pic.
It would be, I would say sometime after Christmas of 1950, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
All right. Would you put all those exhibits back in order?
Mr. Pic.
What belongs with what I think.
Mr. Jenner.
Yes.
Mr. Pic.
Exhibits Nos. 13-A and 15 here, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
You have already told us of Exhibits No. 13-A belonging with Exhibit No. 15. You have also produced for us correspondence that you happen still to have in your possession from your brother Robert Oswald, have you not?
Mr. Pic.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Jenner.
I place that correspondence before you and ask you to follow me
