Mr. Jenner.

In view of that fact would you explain for the record how you came into possession of the letter since you sent it to your mother?

Mrs. Paine.

She gave it to me a few days ago.

Mr. Jenner.

Is the document now in the same condition it was when you mailed it to your mother?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes; it is. You have the first page of two. The other page not being relative to this case.

Mr. Jenner.

In other words, that there be no question about it, do you have the other page?

Mrs. Paine.

I have the other page.

Mr. Jenner.

May I have it?

Mrs. Paine.

The other page, of course, contains my signature.

Mr. Jenner.

Yes. May the record be amended to show that Commission Exhibit No. ----

Mrs. Paine.

I'd rather not have that part of it----

Mr. Jenner.

It is not going into the record, Mrs. Paine. Just be patient.
Commission Exhibit 425 consists of two pages, that is two sheets. The pages are numbered from one through four. Would you look at the page numbered There is a signature appearing at the bottom of it. Is that your signature?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes; it is.

Mr. Jenner.

Mr. Chairman, may I postpone the offer of this document in evidence until I do read the second page, which the witness has now produced. You see, Mrs. Paine, that it may be important to the Commission to have the entire letter which would indicate the context in which the statements that are relevant were made.
You testified yesterday with regard to the draft of what appeared to be a letter that Mr. Oswald, Lee Harvey Oswald, was to send. It was thought he might send it to someone. I hand you a picture of a letter in longhand which has been identified as Commission Exhibit 103. Would you look at that please?

Do you recognize that handwriting?

Mrs. Paine.

No. This is the only time I saw--this is the only handwriting of his I have seen.

Mr. Jenner.

You can't identify the document as such, that is, are you familiar enough with his handwriting----

Mrs. Paine.

To know that this is his handwriting?

Mr. Jenner.

To identify whether that is or is not his handwriting.

Mrs. Paine.

No.

Mr. Jenner.

Have you ever seen that Document before?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes; I have.

Mr. Jenner.

When did you first see it?

Mrs. Paine.

I first saw that on Saturday, the 9th of November. I don't believe I looked to see what it said until the morning of the 10th.

Mr. Jenner.

I see. Now, do you recognize it, however, as a picture of the document that you did see on the 9th of November, or did you say 10th?

Mrs. Paine.

I'll say 10th, yes; it is that document.

Senator Cooper.

What is the answer?

Mrs. Paine.

It is that document,

Mr. Jenner.

And I take it from your testimony that after you had seen the original of this document, this document happens to be a photo, you saw a typed transcript of this document or substantially this document?

Mrs. Paine.

I never saw a typed transcript.

Mr. Jenner.

You did not?

Mrs. Paine.

No.

Mr. Jenner.

Mrs. Paine, you testified yesterday that Lee Harvey Oswald asked you if he could use your typewriter?

Mrs. Paine.

That is right.

Mr. Jenner.

And he did proceed to use the typewriter to type a letter or at least some document?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

And that you saw a document folded in half and one portion of it arrested your attention?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes; that is correct.
