Of course the men didn't answer.
But I sat in the office approximately 2 or 3 hours alone, gentlemen,
with this woman who came in and out.
I said, "If you think you are going to question me or get information
from me, you are not."
And I sat in the office 2 or 3 hours.
Every now and then I would walk up to the outer corridor and say to
whoever was there, "Now, listen, I am getting tired of this. I want to
see Lee."
Mr. RANKIN. What office was this?
Mrs. OSWALD. The courthouse in Dallas.
Mr. RANKIN. Whose office was it in? Do you know?
Mrs. OSWALD. No, I don't know. It was a private office that lead--for
instance, it would be like in the corner, a glass-enclosed office. And
then you could see the outer corridor where the stenographers and the
police and everybody was.
Mr. RANKIN. You don't know whose office it was?
Mrs. OSWALD. No, sir, I do not. So I sat there approximately 3 hours.
And I never did get to see Lee.
So at 5:30--then Robert came in. And he was questioned by the FBI.
Mr. RANKIN. Were you there when he was questioned?
Mrs. OSWALD. No, sir.
And I will state now emphatically that I have never been questioned by
the FBI or the Secret Service--never, gentlemen. If they can produce my
voice or anything, they can produce it.
So then I was escorted into the office where Marina and Mrs. Paine was.
And, of course, I started crying right away, and hugged Marina. And
Marina gave me Rachel, whom I had never seen. I did not know I had a
second grandchild, until this very moment. So I started to cry. Marina
started to cry. And Mrs. Paine said, "Oh, Mrs. Oswald, I am so glad
to meet you. Marina has often expressed the desire to contact you,
especially when the baby was being born. But Lee didn't want her to."
