Mrs. PAINE. Because they would be again in Dallas.
Mr. JENNER. And that squared with your impressions at that time?
Mrs. PAINE. Indeed it did.
Mr. JENNER. Off the record.
(Discussion off the record.)
Mr. JENNER. Return to the record.
Mrs. PAINE. There was another clinic visit that doesn't appear here. I
don't know why. Obviously, a lot of things happened that I didn't write
down but there was also a visit to, I will call it, a sick baby clinic
where you go if a child is ailing.
Mr. JENNER. And who was ailing? Or possibly so?
Mrs. PAINE. My recollection was that no one was ailing, but we learned
of it and wanted to make registration. It was in the adjacent building
to the TB clinic.
Oh, no; I recall now why we went.
At the first Vine Street Clinic meeting, which is, I judge, the 29th of
October, the physician recommended that June go to the Freeman Memorial
Clinic.
Mr. JENNER. F-r-e-e-m-a-n?
Mrs. PAINE. To the best of my recollection. I am not certain. June
has--I don't know what it is called, but it is like a birthmark except
that it is not at the time of birth but a little blood vessel that
collects and makes a red spot. This was on her tummy.
Mr. JENNER. It was on Marina's?
Mrs. PAINE. It was on June's tummy and the doctor at the well baby
clinic suggested that she should have this looked at, and in this
connection he referred us to this other children's clinic, and we went
for an examination there at some time, and it doesn't appear on my
calendar, and the doctors there concluded that it was not necessary
for that to be taken off. At the same time, we filled out forms, more
forms about Marina, so that she could be eligible, and she did then
get a card so that she could come to this clinic at any time that her
children were sick. And they no doubt would have a record of when that
was done.
My own best recollection would be that it was the morning of the 18th
of November, although there is no reference to it here. Then the final
notation is December 4. I started to mention this, but I don't believe
I finished, "Clinic 6 weeks check 1." One refers to the post partum
check at Parkland Memorial Hospital.
Mr. JENNER. This was a part of the postnatal care?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. For Marina?
Mrs. PAINE. For Marina, and, of course, to check the baby's health,
too, and I simply sent notation about this appointment to Secret
Service. That is all.
Mr. JENNER. Did Marina or June or Rachel or Lee, to your knowledge,
have any medical care by private physician, during the time of your
acquaintance with them?
Mrs. PAINE. Not to my knowledge, and I would be surprised.
Mr. JENNER. Surprised? Why?
Mrs. PAINE. If they had. They had very little money, and this
arrangement for the well baby clinic had been made by Marina well
before I knew her. June had already been once or twice in Dallas to the
Vine Street Clinic. I judged that Marina, a trained pharmacist, was
concerned about health, and wanted to get proper medical care whether
or not they could pay for it.
Mr. JENNER. All right, now have we covered all of your calendar, which
sometimes served as a diary, being Commission Exhibit No. 401?
Mrs. PAINE. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. All right. We will adjourn until 2:15.
(Whereupon, at 1:20 p.m., the proceeding was recessed.)
