Mr. Rankin. Did you learn that he was using the assumed name of Lee as his last name?
Mrs. Oswald. I know it now, but I did not ever know it before.
Mr. Rankin. Thursday was the 21st. Do you recall that?
Mrs. Oswald. Yes.
Mr. Rankin. And the assassination was on the 22d.
Mrs. Oswald. This is very hard to forget.
Mr. Rankin. Did your husband give any reason for coming home on Thursday?
Mrs. Oswald. He said that he was lonely because he hadn't come the preceding weekend, and he wanted to make his peace with me.
Mr. Rankin. Did you say anything to him then?
Mrs. Oswald. He tried to talk to me but I would not answer him, and he was very upset.
