Mr. Voshinin.

of the time, maintaining his office in the Republic Bank, and Mrs. Graft worked there. And I think that Mrs. Graft knows a lot about De Mohrenschildt's business. You see, ray wife only worked there 2 or 3 weeks so she doesn't know much. But I understand that Mrs. Graft was there and she read a lot of his files, you know, sorting them and having no other things to do. Especially, I think that George had written his autobiography and she has seen it. I understand she has seen it. It is some kind of a novel about himself which he wanted to sell.
Then, I think you should also question a Mrs. Leslie and Miss Leslie who know him. Mrs. Leslie and her stepdaughter, Miss Leslie.

Mr. Jenner.

Are they residents of Dallas?

Mr. Voshinin.

They are residents of Dallas. Yeah. Mrs. Graft is now living in Birmingham--you know, near Detroit.

Mr. Jenner.

Oh, yes; I know. It's a suburb of Detroit. My daughter, attended school in Birmingham.

Mr. Voshinin.

Mrs. Graft is from Connecticut otherwise, but she was here with her husband. He was working here in Republic Bank--and that's where George's office was. She was at one time, you know, his secretary--part-time, I think.

Mr. Jenner.

Where do Mrs. Leslie and Miss Leslie live?

Mr. Voshinin.

Mrs, Leslie and Miss Leslie on Hanover.

Mr. Jenner.

Hanover Street?

Mr. Voshinin.

Yes; Hanover Street.

Mr. Jenner.

Here in Dallas?

Mr. Voshinin.

Yes; they are Russian.

Mr. Jenner.

They are?

Mr. Voshinin.

But Miss Leslie's father was of British descent--but his wife was Russian. And I think these people, they don't know much about the De Mohrenschildts, but it's also from the same circle, you know, and all that.

Mr. Jenner.

They may know something about the Oswalds, too?

Mr. Voshinin.

I don't know. I don't know one way or the other.

Mr. Jenner.

But they moved in this circle that you've described?

Mr. Voshinin.

They moved in that circle. Now, there is one thing which always strikes me peculiar--I just talked last night with my wife about that, The last 2 years, you know, the De Mohrenschildts were going to Houston about every 4 weeks, and De Mohrenschildt was always saying, "I have to go to Houston on business." And he would say---of course, you don't ask people, you know. George didn't like to talk about what his business is you know. Never told anybody about the details and nobody, of course, asked him.
And he would say, "You know, I have to go--you know, all my business goes through Houston." On the other hand, he would say he was, you know, getting his jobs through a 5 percenter in Washington--and here he was always going to Houston, like reporting to somebody; every 4 or 5 weeks, he was always going to Houston. And as far as me and my wife heard about his business, he has no oil interest there or no business there whatsoever. But as far as he was always interested only in foreign assignments, why should he go to Houston? In other words, even before, you know, the late President was killed, you know, we were once talking this with my wife and wondering--what in the hell is he doing in Houston?
You don't get foreign assignments through Houston--not that we know about, but always he was going to Houston. And, I don't know, he never mentioned to who he goes to Houston. But, it may be possible that I can give you a name of a Russian professor in Houston who may know--may not know but may know--who knows something because Professor Jitkoff----

Mr. Jenner.

Spell it, please.

Mr. Voshinin.

[Spelling] J-i-t-k-o-f-f.

Mr. Jenner.

And at what institution is he a professor?

Mr. Voshinin.

Rice Institute. The head of the department of the Rice Institute.

Mr. Jenner.

What department?

Mr. Voshinin.

The Russian Department. He can't stand George De Mohrenschildt. And I know about De Mohrenschildt being in Houston--I know, that,
