Mrs. PAINE. It was at that point that I went out to the yard to tell
her.
Senator COOPER. To tell her?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Senator COOPER. After that when you went back in and you all were
sitting on the sofa and she was there, were there any other comments
over the television that someone from this building had fired the shot
or that any suspects from----
Mrs. PAINE. You mean, someone associated with the building?
Senator COOPER. Yes.
Mrs. PAINE. No; that was not said.
Senator COOPER. There was nothing else said about that?
Mrs. PAINE. No; just that the shot came from the building.
Mr. McCLOY. Nothing else that you heard?
Mrs. PAINE. Nothing else about it.
Mr. JENNER. Mrs. Paine, you do have a definite recollection that you
communicated to Marina out in the yard that the shot had come from the
Texas School Book Depository?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. And what did she do when you communicated that to her,
apart from what she said? You told us what she said. What did she do?
Did she come in the house?
Mrs. PAINE. I don't recall.
Mr. JENNER. Did she enter the garage?
Mrs. PAINE. I don't know. I never saw her enter the garage, but my
recollection is that I was outside hanging clothes after I told her
this, but what I can't recall is whether she remained with me hanging
the clothes or whether she went in the house.
Mr. JENNER. She might have gone into the house?
Mrs. PAINE. She might have gone into the house.
Mr. JENNER. But, in any event, you do not recall her entering the
garage following your advising her of the announcement that the shot
had come, or was thought to have come from the Texas School Book
Depository?
Mrs. PAINE. I do not recall.
Senator COOPER. When you went out to tell her, was she hanging clothes?
Mrs. PAINE. She was hanging clothes.
Senator COOPER. Then did you go help her, and then both of you were
hanging clothes?
Mrs. PAINE. I then helped her. What I can't remember is whether she
remained and finished the job with me. I remember I finished, remained
until they were all hung.
Senator COOPER. Do you remember at anytime after that whether or not
you were hanging clothes alone?
Mrs. PAINE. That is what I am not certain about. I could well have been.
Mr. JENNER. At anytime that afternoon, in any event, up to the time
that the policeman rang your doorbell, did you observe or were you
aware that Marina had entered the garage?
Mrs. PAINE. I wasn't aware that she had entered, if she did.
Mr. JENNER. I take it from your testimony it is possible that Marina,
after you advised her that the shot was thought to have come from this
Texas School Book Depository, that she might have been inside your home
while you were still out in the yard?
Mrs. PAINE. That is right.
Mr. JENNER. And, of course, if that is so, then she could have entered
the garage while she was inside your home, and you were out in the yard
hanging clothes?
Mrs. PAINE. And I would not have seen her; that is right.
Mr. JENNER. Now, this clothes-hanging occurred in the rear, the yard
portion in the rear of your home; is that correct?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Is it possible--is there a window in the garage opening on
the rear of your home on to that yard area, or is the wall blank?
Mrs. PAINE. The window one can look into from the area where one hangs
clothes goes to the dining area. From where I stood, I could not have
seen the door entering the garage, which would be just beyond----
Mr. JENNER. You are talking about the inside door?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
