Mr. Jenner. In the fall you mean?
Mrs. Paine. In the fall of the year, in October and November. He began to appear much more at ease, and as if he had some confidence in how he would be treated. It is a whole subject really.
Representative Ford. Can you give us a little more information on what you said to him and what he, or how he responded in this incident involving the car?
Mrs. Paine. I would say he clearly wanted to do the driving and to drive in the street. I felt that this, my not permitting him to, was one of the things that was helping to get him to the office where he could get a learner's permit, and he was eager to be driving, and to learn to drive on the street.
Representative Ford. Did he just slough off, so to speak, your admonition that he shouldn't drive?
Mrs. Paine. I didn't make it a requirement that he stop right there so he didn't have to stop.
Representative Ford. You just suggested it might be better?
Mrs. Paine. I just made it clear I was uncomfortable and on the way home I would drive.
Mr. McCloy. There is one thing we haven't had testimony about, I imagine, except implicitly.
It is alleged that Lee possessed a .38 caliber revolver. Do you, in the light of hindsight, perhaps, do you have any feeling now that he was secreting that weapon on your premises?
