Mrs. Paine. Yes; very much so.
Mr. Jenner. I ask you this general question, then, Mrs. Paine: During all of your contact with Marina Oswald, did she ever express any view other than that one of wanting to remain in America?
Mrs. Paine. No; she did not.
Mr. Jenner. What did she? Was she affirmative about it?
Mrs. Paine. Very.
Mr. Jenner. Of wanting to stay in this country?
Mrs. Paine. Yes.
Mr. Jenner. Now, what did you say when she related that her husband wanted her to return to Russia, and she thought to remain in Russia. Did it elicit some curiosity from you?
Mrs. Paine. Curiosity? It elicited anger at Lee that he would presume to drop his responsibilities so preemptorily.
Mr. Jenner. Did you discuss it with her?
