I would like to tell her that, but it is impossible to tell her that,
because she would scratch my eyes out.
Mr. RANKIN. Are there any other differences between you and your
mother-in-law that you have not described?
Mrs. OSWALD. No, there are no more.
Mr. RANKIN. Do you know of any time that your husband had money in
excess of what he obtained from the jobs he was working on?
Mrs. OSWALD. No.
Mr. RANKIN. He had his unemployment insurance when he was out of work.
Is that right?
Mrs. OSWALD. Yes.
Mr. RANKIN. And then he had the earnings from his jobs, is that right?
Mrs. OSWALD. Yes.
Mr. RANKIN. Now, beyond those amounts, do you know of any sum of money
that he had from any source?
Mrs. OSWALD. No.
Mr. RANKIN. Do you know whether he was ever acting as an undercover
agent for the FBI.
Mrs. OSWALD. No.
Mr. RANKIN. Do you believe that he was at any time?
Mrs. OSWALD. No.
Mr. RANKIN. Do you know whether or not he was acting as an agent for
the CIA at any time?
Mrs. OSWALD. No.
Mr. RANKIN. Do you believe that he was?
Mrs. OSWALD. No.
Mr. RANKIN. Did you know Jack Ruby, the man that killed your husband?
Mrs. OSWALD. No.
Mr. RANKIN. Before the murder of your husband by Jack Ruby, had you
ever known of him?
Mrs. OSWALD. No, never.
Mr. RANKIN. Do you know whether your husband knew Jack Ruby before the
killing?
Mrs. OSWALD. He was not acquainted with him. Lee did not frequent
nightclubs, as the papers said.
Mr. RANKIN. How do you know that?
Mrs. OSWALD. He was always with me. He doesn't like other women. He
didn't drink. Why should he then go?
Mr. RANKIN. Do you know any reason why Jack Ruby killed your husband?
Mrs. OSWALD. About that, Jack Ruby should be questioned.
Mr. RANKIN. I have to ask you, Mrs. Oswald.
Mrs. OSWALD. He didn't tell me.
Mr. RANKIN. And do you know any reason why he should?
Mrs. OSWALD. I don't know, but it seems to me that he was a sick person
at that time, perhaps. At least when I see his picture in the paper
now, it is an abnormal face.
Mr. RANKIN. Has your husband ever mentioned the name Jack Ruby to you?
Mrs. OSWALD. No.
Mr. RANKIN. He never at any time said anything about Jack Ruby that you
can recall?
Mrs. OSWALD. No, never. I heard that name for the first time after he
killed Lee.
