Mr. JENNER. Give your best recollection of everything you said and if
you can, please, everything he said, and exactly what you said.
Mrs. PAINE. I said, "Well, Hi." And he said he wanted to ask me to call
Mr. John Abt in New York for him after 6 p.m. He gave me a telephone
number of an office in New York and a residence in New York.
Mr. JENNER. Two telephone numbers he gave you?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. One office and one residence of Mr. John Abt. Did he say
who Mr. John Abt was?
Mrs. PAINE. He said he was an attorney he wanted to have.
Mr. JENNER. Represent him?
Mrs. PAINE. To represent him. He thanked me for my concern.
Mr. JENNER. Did he tell you or ask you what you were to do or say to
Mr. Abt if you reached him?
Mrs. PAINE. I carried the clear impression I was to ask him if he would
serve as attorney for Lee Oswald.
Mr. JENNER. All right.
Have you given the substance of the conversation in as much detail, of
the entire conversation, as you now can recall?
