Mrs. GIBSON. I did not tell him that I had seen Marina, though.
Mr. JENNER. Is when he approached you on the subject?
Mrs. GIBSON. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Of the baptism and why you hadn't told him?
Mrs. GIBSON. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. What did you say to him?
Mrs. GIBSON. I told him it was none of my business, and he wasn't too
happy about it.
Mr. JENNER. What did he say about the fact that June had been baptized?
Mrs. GIBSON. Not too much. He wasn't really that upset about it. He
just said he didn't like the idea, but that was all. He wasn't terribly
upset about it.
Mr. JENNER. Mrs. Gibson, was he upset because the baby had been
baptized in the Russian Orthodox Church rather than the Lutheran
Church, for example?
Mrs. GIBSON. No; he was an atheist. He just didn't want anything to do
with religion.
Mr. JENNER. Did you and your husband have discussions with him on the
subject of religion?
Mrs. GIBSON. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. And what were his views on the subject of religion?
Mrs. GIBSON. He didn't believe in it. He didn't believe in God. He
didn't believe in anything.
Mr. JENNER. And did that discussion occur reasonably often, on more
than one occasion?
Mrs. GIBSON. Oh, it was mentioned in with politics. You know how that
can get. The two subjects you are not supposed to talk about we talked
about probably the most.
Mr. JENNER. What was your impression about any view or hope or desire
or ambition on his part of some future attainment?
Mrs. GIBSON. He didn't really talk too much about in the future or what
he wanted to do. I don't know what he wanted to do with himself.
Mr. JENNER. Was President Kennedy ever mentioned in the course of the
discussions between your husband and Lee?
Mrs. GIBSON. Never, never. He wasn't President at the time anyway, was
he?
Mr. JENNER. Yes; he was.
Mrs. GIBSON. Yes; he was. He had just become President, hadn't he? No,
he was never mentioned. Now, the only person ever mentioned pertaining
to that was the Governor of Texas.
Mr. JENNER. He became President in 1960.
Mrs. GIBSON. It was the Governor of Texas who was mentioned mostly.
Mr. JENNER. Tell us about that.
Mrs. GIBSON. First you are going to have to tell me who the Governor
was.
Mr. JENNER. Connally.
