Senator Cooper.

Thank you.

Mr. Jenner.

I gather the first interview by any FBI agent to your knowledge was on the first day of November 1963?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes; and I don't really think interview is a fully accurate word.

Mr. Jenner.

What word would you like to use?

Mrs. Paine.

I felt that the agent stopped to see whether the Oswalds, either Mrs. Oswald or Mr., were living there, and to make the acquaintance of me. He said that he had talked with my immediate neighbor, Mrs. Roberts, the previous time.

Mr. Jenner.

The pronoun you are using refers to the FBI agent.

Mrs. Paine.

He, the FBI agent.

Mr. Jenner.

Yes.

Mrs. Paine.

Said that he had inquired of my next door neighbor, Mrs. Roberts, whether the Oswalds lived here, and she had said that she didn't know the last name but knew that the wife of the family was living there, and that there had just been a baby girl born, and that the husband came out some week ends.

Mr. Jenner.

Is this what the agent told you?

Mrs. Paine.

No, the neighbor told me.

Mr. Jenner.

I see. All right.

Mrs. Paine.

And I judged he wanted to find out directly.

Mr. Jenner.

Had you finished?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

Have you subsequently learned the name of the gentleman who interviewed you or conversed with you?

Mrs. Paine.

I have subsequently learned his name, yes. It was James Hosty.

The Chairman.

What was the name?

Mrs. Paine.

James Hosty, H-O-S-T-Y.

Mr. Jenner.

I don't wish you to give that full interview again because you touched on it yesterday and again at greater length this morning. But I do wish to ask you with respect to that interview, did you give Agent Hosty the telephone numbers that you had received from Lee Oswald as to where he might be reached in Dallas?

Mrs. Paine.

No; I didn't. He asked me if I knew where Lee lived. I did think of these phone numbers, but

Mr. Jenner.

During the course of the.

Mrs. Paine.

Or later.

Mr. Jenner.

Of the interview?

Mrs. Paine.

At least between that time and the time he came again, but I have been impressed with what I have now concluded was a mistaken impression I have which effected my behavior; namely, that the FBI was in possession of a great deal of information, or so I thought, and certainly would find it very easy to find out where Lee Oswald was living. I really didn't believe they didn't know or needed to find out from me. This is a feeling stemming from my understanding of the difficulties they faced working in a free society. I would behave quite differently now, but I have learned a lot from this particular experience.

Mr. Jenner.

Now was there a subsequent interview?

Mrs. Paine.

There was an interview a few days later, yes, interview to the extent that he came to the door, walked in the door. We didn't as much as sit down. But he asked again about an address. I had none. I did say that I expected

Mr. Jenner.

An address as to where Lee resided?

Mrs. Paine.

In town where he resided. I did say that I expected that when Marina moved into an apartment with Lee again, as we all thought would occur, that I would be in contact with her, and that I would be perfectly Willing to give him information as to that address when I had such, but that my contact was with her and therefore through that way I would have the address.

Mr. Jenner.

Were you again interviewed by telephone or otherwise by any FBI agent prior to November 22, 1963.
