Senator RUSSELL. But he never made a great deal of money, did he?*

*Mrs. OSWALD. I marvel now how we managed to live on what he earned at

that time in comparison with what I have now. We spent $12 or $15 a

week at that time.

We spent $12 or $15 a week at that time--you know, we can live--that

was for milk and so on.

Senator RUSSELL. He didn't spent any money on himself, did he, he

wasn't extravagant in his own habits? He didn't spend his money on

clothes or whisky or women or things of that kind, did he?

Mrs. OSWALD. Oh, no. He told--somebody told about Jack Ruby--he went to

his nightclub, he never did go to nightclub.

Senator RUSSELL. Well, I mean just extravagance in his own habits--he

was frugal in his own eating habits, he didn't eat much when he was

away from home, did he?

Mrs. OSWALD. No.

Senator RUSSELL. You knew where he kept his money in your home, did you

not?*

*Mrs. OSWALD. He had a black wallet, but I never ventured into it.

Senator RUSSELL. Did he not tell you to take some of the money out

of the wallet at one time and buy some clothes for the children and

yourself?

Mrs. OSWALD. No.
