Mr. Jenner.

What did you do that evening? Did you have occasion to note what he did?

Mrs. Paine.

We had dinner as usual, and then I sort of bathed my children, putting them to bed and reading them a story, which put me in one part of the house. When that was done I realized he had already gone to bed, this being now about 9 o'clock. I went out to the garage to paint some children's blocks, and worked in the garage for half an hour or so. I noticed when I went out that the light was on.

Mr. Jenner.

The light was on in the garage?

Mrs. Paine.

The light was on in the garage.

Mr. Jenner.

Was this unusual?

Mrs. Paine.

Oh, it was unusual for it to be on; yes. I realized that I felt Lee, since Marina had also been busy with her children, had gone out to the garage, perhaps worked out there or gotten something. Most of their clothing was still out there, all of their winter things. They were getting things out from time to time, warmer things for the cold weather, so it was not at all remarkable that he went to the garage, but I thought it careless of him to have left the light on. I finished my work and then turned off the light and left the garage.

Mr. Jenner.

Have you completed that now?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

You stated that he was in the garage, how did you know he was in the garage?

Mr. Mccloy.

She didn't state that.

Mrs. Paine.

I didn't state it absolutely. I guessed it was he rather than she. She was busy with the children and the light had been on and I know I didn't leave the light on.

Mr. Jenner.

Then, I would ask you directly, did you see him in the garage at anytime from the time you first saw him on the lawn until he retired for the night?

Mrs. Paine.

No.

Mr. Jenner.

Until you retired for the night?

Mrs. Paine.

No.

Mr. Jenner.

Was he out on the lawn after dinner or supper?

Mrs. Paine.

I don't believe so.

Mr. Jenner.

Did you hear any activity out in the garage on that evening?

Mrs. Paine.

No; I did not.

Mr. Jenner.

Any persons moving about?

Mrs. Paine.

No.

Mr. Jenner.

The only thing that arrested your attention was the fact that you discovered the light on in the garage?

Mrs. Paine.

That is right.

Mr. Jenner.

Before you retired?

Representative Ford.

You discovered that when you went out to work there?

Mrs. Paine.

When I went out to work there.

Mr. Mccloy.

When you went out there, did you notice the blanket?

Mrs. Paine.

I don't recall specifically seeing the blanket. I certainly recall on the afternoon of the 22d where it had been.

Mr. Dulles.

Was there any evidence of any quarreling or any harsh words between Lee Harvey and Marina that evening that you know of?

Mrs. Paine.

No.

Mr. Jenner.

Was there a coolness between them?

Mrs. Paine.

He went to bed very early, she stayed up and talked with me some, but there was no coolness that I noticed. He was quite friendly on the lawn as we--

Mr. Jenner.

I mean coolness between himself and---between Lee and Marina.
Mrs. PAINE. I didn't notice any such coolness. Rather, they seemed warm, like a couple making up a small spat, I should interject one thing here, too, that I recall as I entered the house and Lee had just come in, I said to him, "Our President is coming to town."
And he said, "Ah, yes," and walked on into the kitchen, which was a common
