Mrs. Paine.

Russian--as it says right here, "The decision to study Russian specifically is an intellectual decision" which came after the leading. That is something I thought out, that kind of intellectual--rather than a prompting from within.

Mr. Jenner.

And when you use the expression--you Quakers use the expression that you have a leading--you mean a prompting from your--inner prompting.

Mrs. Paine.

That's correct.

Mr. Jenner.

I would like to confirm with you, if I can, Mrs. Paine your recollection is that Lee Oswald had come home on the evening of November 8, and that it was the following day, the following morning, the 9th, that you took him, with Marina, to the driver's license application bureau.

Mrs. Paine.

That is right.

Mr. Jenner.

And that it was some other weekend that he did not come on Friday, but came on Saturday morning.

Mrs. Paine.

I would think so.

Mr. Jenner.

That that is your present recollection.

Mrs. Paine.

Yes. I will support it by saying that he used my typewriter before he went to the driver training location.

Mr. Jenner.

Now, when you say you have a recollection of his having used your typewriter, you mean the evening before?

Mrs. Paine.

No, I mean the morning before. But that would have had to be fairly soon after breakfast.

Mr. Jenner.

You mean in the morning before you left for the driver's license bureau, he used your typewriter?

Mrs. Paine.

It was the morning of the 9th, before we left for the driver training bureau. And I am just saying that if he had come in on Saturday, I doubt it would have been that early.

Mr. Jenner.

I see. So that tends to confirm your own recollection that he had come to your home the night before as usual.

Mrs. PAINE. Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

That he arose in the morning, and used your typewriter, and then you all departed for the driver's license bureau.

Mrs. Paine.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

Did you take him to the parking lot for instruction on more than one occasion?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

About how many?

Mrs. Paine.

There were at least two. I think probably just two. And add to that one occasion when we practiced only in front of the house, just parking. Three lessons altogether.

Mr. Jenner.

Was there an English-language dictionary on your desk secretary at the time you found what I call the Mexico letter?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes, there was--a pocket dictionary.

Mr. Jenner.

Was that an English-Russian, or just----

Mrs. Paine.

Just English.

Mr. Jenner.

Was that your dictionary or was it his?

Mrs. Paine.

It was not mine.

Mr. Jenner.

Do you know of any reason why--I will restate the question.
Do you have any inward feeling or any hunch or anything along those lines that Robert Oswald might have taken a dislike to you or to your husband?

Mrs. Paine.

I have no feeling of that sort.

Mr. Jenner.

Nothing has occurred to lead you to have that feeling?

Mrs. Paine.

Except your question.

Mr. Jenner.

Pardon?

Mrs. Paine.

Except your question.

Mr. Jenner.

Yes, other than my question. That is the trouble with leading questions.
Do you recall whether at any time in your home Lee Oswald had viewed any movies of the assassination of--fictional assassination of a President or anyone holding high public office?

Mrs. Paine.

I do not recall.
