Mr. Paine. I don't remember that. I think he was there; yes. I think he was there because otherwise I would have seen that meeting. I did not see them first embrace each other.
Mr. Liebeler. Did he say anything to you about where he had been?
Mr. Paine. No; I thought I knew where he had been. Ruth had told me he was looking for work in Houston.
Mr. Liebeler. Ruth had told you that before this date?
Mr. Paine. I don't know.
Mr. Liebeler. There was no conversation among any one at that time about Oswald having been in Mexico.
Mr. Paine. No; it was a complete surprise to Ruth and myself. When we saw this letter where he mentioned having been to Mexico, Ruth took it as an example of his colossal lying.
Mr. Liebeler. Tell us about this letter, what were the circumstances surrounding that?
Mr. Paine. He had written a letter using her typewriter and her desk to a party I don't know.
Mr. Dulles. That is Ruth's typewriter and desk?
