Mr. Rankin. Will you tell us about the conversation when you related this to someone else?
Mr. Martin. It was on the telephone, and I was quite shocked at first about it and then thinking it over, it didn't sound logical.
Mr. Rankin. You believed it at first?
Mr. Martin. Yes. I guess I didn't see any reason for it not to be true. But then I didn't see any reason for it to be a lie, either, and I supposed it was possible.
Mr. Rankin. When did you tell Mr. Thorne about it with reference to when Marina told you?
Mr. Martin. The same day. I don't recall the date at all.
Mr. Rankin. What did you say to Mr. Thorne about it?
Mr. Martin. I just related the incident, what she had told me.
Mr. Rankin. Did you say anything to him about telling the Commission about it?
Mr. Martin. No.
