You and John entered the Bethlehem Orphan Home. Would you describe to us the nature of that school?
Mr. Oswald. Well——
Mr. Jenner. Was it a public or private institution?
Mr. Oswald. I would say it was a private home. The atmosphere generally—of course all the boys and girls were separated—I recall just one large dormitory building, sleeping area and so forth. The cafeteria was located——
Mr. Dulles. Could you tell us about how many there were in this orphanage, roughly? Was it 50, 100, 200?
Mr. Oswald. I would say around 75 to 100, sir.
Mr. Jenner. So you are now about 8 years old, am I correct?
Mr. Oswald. 1942—that would be correct, sir.
The cafeteria was located in a separate, or perhaps a wing of this large dormitory building. The school area was located in a separate building towards the entrance of the home. There was quite a large playground there, and quite a large playroom within that large dormitory.
Mr. McKenzie. The home itself was located in New Orleans, is that correct?
