Mr. Jenner. At any time during all the time you knew the Oswalds, up to and including November 22, was any mention ever made of any attempt on the life of Richard Nixon?
Mrs. Paine. None.
Mr. Jenner. Just that subject matter, was it ever mentioned?
Mrs. Paine. Never.
Mr. Jenner. To the best of your recollection did they ever discuss Richard Nixon as a person?
Mrs. Paine. I can't recall Richard Nixon coming into the conversation at any time.
Mr. Jenner. And to the present day—well, I want to include the time that you spoke here a couple weeks ago with Marina, let us say up to and including that day had there ever been any discussion with you by Marina of the possibility of Lee Oswald contemplating making an attack upon the person of Richard Nixon?
Mrs. Paine. No; no such discussion.
Mr. Jenner. Did anyone else ever talk to you about that up to that time, talk to you on that subject?
Mrs. Paine. Well, after it was rumored in the paper, someone asked me if I thought there was anything to it but that is something else.
