"No. I go to lady's house to take English lessons."
Mr. RANKIN. Do you know who she was speaking of?
Mrs. OSWALD. I do not know for a fact. But my son Robert will know.
And that is why it is important to call him. That is what I am trying
to say, Chief Justice Warren. These others will know this part of my
story, give you the facts.
I am assuming it is Mr. Peter Gregory's wife that started these
lessons. But Marina was taking English lessons.
Now, they lived at a corner house, and there is Carol Street, and
opposite Carol Street is a parking lot for Montgomery Ward. They live
approximately two blocks from Montgomery Ward. So I had gone by, as I
am stating, several times. You have to understand--this is just 6 or 7
weeks that they are in this home.
Mr. RANKIN. You say "they." I am sorry to interrupt.
Mrs. OSWALD. Marina and Lee, in this home.
Then Marina was not home. I could not understand where so fast that
they could have so many friends, that this Russian girl didn't speak
English and know her way about, could be gone all day long. That
worried me.
So I sat in the car on Montgomery Ward's parking lot, where I could see
the house, because I wanted to see who Marina was going to come home
with.
The door was open. I went in the house and no one was there.
By this time, I was wondering how she could be gone all the time, being
a stranger in town.
