Mrs. Paine.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

I offer in evidence the original document which has now been identified as Commission Exhibit No. 405.

Mr. Mccloy.

It may be admitted.
(The document referred to heretofore marked Commission Exhibit No. 405 for identification, was received in evidence.)

Mr. Jenner.

I will read the translation in the record during the noon recess. You shortly transmitted another letter of your own to Mrs. Oswald, did you not?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

And I have here a document which I have marked Commission Exhibit No. 406. Is this a draft of the letter in your handwriting?
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 406 for identification.)

Mrs. Paine.

Yes; it is.

Mr. Jenner.

And did you shortly after the completion of that draft retranscribe it and transmit the letter to Marina Oswald?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

Have you made a translation of that letter?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes; I have.

Mr. Jenner.

Is the draft of that document in the same condition now as it was when you completed it?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

Where is that document transcribed on your notes?

Mrs. Paine.

That is at the top of page 2.

Mr. Jenner.

That is what we call No. 3, is it not?

Mrs. Paine.

And dated March 26.

Mr. Jenner.

This, Mr. Chairman, is her note to which she testified yesterday was an invitation to the Oswalds to dinner at her home on April 2.

Mrs. Paine.

It appears--the following invitation is a full explanation of it. I believe I had made the explanation in person. This letter was to say that Michael would come and pick them up.

Mr. Jenner.

This was confirmation of your original invitation?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes; this was that Michael could pick them up.

Mr. Jenner.

I offer in evidence a document marked Commission Exhibit No. 406.

Mr. Mccloy.

It may be admitted.
(The document referred to, heretofore marked Commission Exhibit No. 406 for identification, was received in evidence.)

Mr. Jenner.

Did you receive from Marina herself a note with respect to your invitation to have her and her husband join you?

Mrs. Paine.

I have a note which I take to be a reply to that invitation, saying that that date, Tuesday, would be fine.

Mr. Jenner.

And I hand you Commission Document No. 407. Is that the note you received from Marina Oswald?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes; it is.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 407 for identification.)

Mr. Jenner.

Have you made--is it in the same condition now as it was when you received it?

Mrs. Paine.

I have no envelope anymore. I don't know what happened to it.

Mr. Jenner.

Is the note itself in the same condition as it was at the time you received it?

Mrs. Paine.

No. I have written on it in my hand to help me understand the meaning of it, some pen notations, translation of the Russian words.

Mr. Jenner.

I am interested in that, Mrs. Paine.
Did you also--are there some additions in your handwriting on the first page of the note?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes, marked one, two, three, four and clearly taken from a dictionary.

Mr. Jenner.

Why did you do that?

Mrs. Paine.

To explain to myself the meaning of these particular words. I had to look them up.
