home and boil and cook them. They got a big bang out of doing things like that.
Now, Marina was pregnant about that time, and we asked them if we could do anything for her in the way of getting some sort of treatment before the birth of the baby, but Marina didn't want any treatment. She said she didn't need any, and it seemed like Lee must have had her at Charity Hospital, I think at least one time, because he said they told him that when she was ready to have the child, to just come right on in.

Mr. Jenner.

Was there any discussion of a rifle at any time in your presence?

Mrs. Murret.

No.

Mr. Jenner.

No discussion about anything like that by anybody?

Mrs. Murret.

No.

Mr. Jenner.

Did you ever see a rifle around in the garage where this stuff was stored?

Mrs. Murret.

No; I never did.

Mr. Jenner.

Did you ever see a package out there that looked like it might contain a rifle?

Mrs. Murret.

No; I never did see one around there.

Mr. Jenner.

You never saw anything that looked like a rifle or shotgun at all among his belongings that he had put in the garage in the corner?

Mrs. Murret.

No; but I didn't really pay too much attention to all that stuff. The only thing I remember him ever taking out of there was these boots and this hat.

Mr. Jenner.

Did you attend this lecture that Lee gave over in Mobile?

Mrs. Murret.

Oh, no; women couldn't attend.

Mr. Jenner.

Was that on a Saturday night?

Mrs. Murret.

It was on a Saturday night; yes, sir, because we came back the next afternoon.

Mr. Jenner.

It was just for the boys from the House of Study, is that your understanding?

Mrs. Murret.

That's right. No women were allowed, and during that time they had one of the boys there that spoke Russian, and he never got a chance to talk with the other boys in Russian, of course, so Gene told him that Marina was outside that night, so he came out, and he spoke with Marina in Russian, and so he and Marina had a very nice conversation about different things, and we walked up to the chapel, and he showed Marina the chapel, and so forth, and I don't know what he was saying to her, because they were both talking in Russian. So I don't know what all they were talking about. So then after they talked for a while, he left. Now, after the talk Lee gave at the meeting, I asked Gene, "Well, how was it?" and he said, "Well, it was all right."
Previous to that time, I had said to Lee---I knew that Lee was going to talk about being in Russia, so I said to Lee, "Maybe you had better map out some thoughts for your talk, just what you might be going to say, so you won't be too nervous," and he said, "Oh, don't worry about me; I give talks all the time."

Mr. Jenner.

He said he gave talks all the time?

Mrs. Murret.

That's what he said. He said, "I'm used to that." He said, "I give talks all the time." I asked Marina later on one day if she would like to attend mass the next morning with me, and she said yes, she would, and she asked Lee about it, so they were talking it over in Russian, so I don't know what they were saying.

Mr. Jenner.

Did she go with you to mass the next morning?

Mrs. Murret.

Yes; she did.

Mr. Jenner.

Did she say she liked it, or what did she say?

Mrs. Murret.

Yes; she said, "I like your church very much."

Mr. Jenner.

Marina said that?

Mrs. Murret.

Yes; I said, "Marina, I'm sorry you don't live near me; we could go to church together," and I said to her, "I wish you would become a Catholic."

Mr. Jenner.

Marina could converse to some extent in English, could she not? She could communicate with you to some extent, couldn't she?

Mrs. Murret.

Yes; I could make her understand most things, you know, about what I was talking about. Now, another thing, Lee didn't want the baby to be baptized.
