Mr. Rankin. Do you think that had anything to do with the assassination the next day?
Mrs. Oswald. Perhaps he was thinking about all of that. I don't think that he was asleep. Because, in the morning when the alarm clock went off he hadn't woken up as usual before the alarm went off, and I thought that he probably had fallen asleep very late. At least then I didn't think about it. Now I think so.
Mr. Rankin. When he said he would not be home that Friday evening, did you ask him why?
Mrs. Oswald. Yes.
Mr. Rankin. What did he say?
Mrs. Oswald. He said that since he was home on Thursday, that it wouldn't make any sense to come again on Friday, that he would come for the weekend.
Mr. Rankin. Did that cause you to think that he had any special plans to do anything?
Mrs. Oswald. No.
Mr. Rankin. Did you usually keep a wallet with money in it at the Paines?
Mrs. Oswald. Yes, in my room at Ruth Paine's there was a black wallet in a wardrobe. Whenever Lee would come he would put money in there, but I never counted it.
