The President's Commission reconvened at 2 p.m.
The CHAIRMAN. The Commission will be in order. Mr. Rankin, you may
continue.
Mr. RANKIN. Mrs. Oswald, we will hand you Exhibit 19, which purports to
be an envelope from the Soviet Embassy at Washington, dated November 4,
1963, and ask you if you recall seeing the original or a copy of that.
Mrs. OSWALD. I had not seen this envelope before, but Lee had told me
that a letter had been received in my name from the Soviet Embassy with
congratulations on the October Revolution--on the date of the October
Revolution.
Mr. RANKIN. And you think that that came in that Exhibit 19, do you?
Mrs. OSWALD. Yes, because the date coincides, and I didn't get any
other letters.
Mr. RANKIN. We offer in evidence Exhibit 19.
The CHAIRMAN. It may be in the record and given the next number.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 19, and
received in evidence.)
Mr. RANKIN. In some newspaper accounts your mother-in-law has intimated
that your husband might have been an agent for some government, and
that she might have--did have information in that regard.
Do you know anything about that?
Mrs. OSWALD. The first time that I hear anything about this.
