Mr. Jenner. It was an elementary school?
Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir; I know where it is located there and everything. I believe it is closed down now.
Mr. Jenner. You learned of this during the summer vacation, or from letters from your mother?
Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir—perhaps both—one way or the other during that period we were aware that Lee was attending school in Benbrook.
Mr. Jenner. Up to this point what were the relationships between yourself and your brother John? Cordial and normal brother relationships?
Mr. Oswald. I might say then as now they were cordial. We always got along. He was a little bit older than I was, of course. He had his group of friends, I had mine. We got along just fine.
Mr. Jenner. And the relationship of your brother John and yourself on the one hand, and Lee on the other—let us take the 6- to 7- to 8-year-old period.
Mr. Oswald. John and I both, I feel, especially from my side, that we were his big brothers, and when we were around Lee we took care of him. We played together, to some extent, anyway. Perhaps our interests were a little bit different than Lee's at that early age of his life—a spread of 5 years between Lee and I and 7 years between Lee and John.
Mr. Jenner. Yes. That is quite a gap.
A boy 6 years old who has a brother 11 years old—that would be you—and a brother 13 years old, that would be John—at that age, that is quite a gap.
