Mrs. Paine.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

Is there anything in the translation to which you might desire to take exception or at least make a comment?
(At this point Chief Justice Warren left the hearing room.)

Mrs. Paine.

One minute. Yes, it accurately reflects some of my bad Russian.

Mr. Jenner.

You take no exception to the translation?

Mrs. Paine.

I think no.

Mr. Jenner.

Mr. Chairman, if you please, I offer in evidence, Mr. Dulles, may I have those exhibits.

Mr. Mccloy.

They may be admitted.

Mr. Jenner.

As Commission Exhibits 411, 412, 413 and 414, the documents that had been so marked?

Mr. Mccloy.

They will be admitted.
(The documents referred, previously marked Commission Exhibits Nos. 411, 412, 413, and 414, were received in evidence.)

Mr. Jenner.

You did receive a response from Marina, did you not, Mrs. Paine?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes; I did.

Mr. Jenner.

And is the response the document now handed to you marked Commission Exhibit No. 415?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes; it is.

Mr. Jenner.

And you supplied the Commission with your translation of that letter and that translation--

Mrs. Paine.

415 is that what you said?

Mr. Jenner.

415. It appears on pages 10, 11, and 12 of the material you supplied me.

Mrs. Paine.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

You don't have an envelope but you have a letter.

Mrs. Paine.

I don't have an envelope. I don't know what happened to it.

Mr. Jenner.

Is the exhibit in Marina Oswald's handwriting?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes; it is.

Mr. Jenner.

Is there anything on the exhibit other than that in the handwriting of Marina Oswald?

Mrs. Paine.

There are a few underlinings on the page marked four.

Mr. Jenner.

Who placed them there?

Mrs. Paine.

Which are my own.

Mr. Jenner.

All fight. Anything else?

Mrs. Paine.

Except for the underlining "he does not know" at the very bottom.

Mr. Jenner.

"He" refers to whom?

Mrs. Paine.

Lee.

Mr. Jenner.

You were about to state to the Commission Marina Oswald's reaction to your series of invitations. Is that correct?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

Would you proceed then?

Mrs. Paine.

As reflected in this letter. This was the third letter I received from her after a space of over a month, and I had been very concerned about her. I was much relieved to get it. She said she had been to the doctor and her condition was normal. She responded to this series of four letters of which we have three in rough draft, saying--shall I read in some of the things said?

Mr. Jenner.

To the extent that you desire to do so. We will not read the whole letter, it is quite long; that which is pertinent to what you have in mind.

Mrs. Paine.

Well, that for a considerable period Lee has been good to her, she writes. He talks a lot about the coming baby.

Mr. Jenner.

Perhaps you might pick out--there are only about four sentences.

Mrs. Paine.

"He has become more attentive and we hardly quarrel".

Mr. Jenner.

This indicates a change somewhat in relationship and would you please read that portion of the letter?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes.

Mr. Dulles.

Could we have the date of this letter once again?

Mrs. Paine.

The date of the letter. We have no date on the letter. It was written somewhere between July 18 and July 21, which is the date of my reply.

Mr. Jenner.

That is how you identify it?

Mrs. Paine.

Yes.
