Mr. McKenzie. Mrs. Oswald, you say or you said a few minutes ago that Mr. Paine knew or knows more about your husband's attitude about the United States than you do. Why did you say that?
Mrs. Oswald. Because my husband's favorite topic of discussion was politics, and whoever he was with he talked to them politics and Mr. Paine was with him a fair amount and I am not sure they talked about politics. They went to meetings of some kind together, I don't know what kind of meetings.
Mr. McKenzie. Do you know where the meetings were?
Mrs. Oswald. In Dallas. After they came back from some meeting my husband said to me something about Walker being at this meeting, and he said, "Paine knows that I shot him."
I don't know whether this was the truth or not. I don't know whether it was true or not but this is what he told me.

Mrs. Oswald. Yes; it was about 2 days after this incident with Stevenson or the next day, or maybe it was the same place, or the next day that a meeting was held where General Walker appeared.
Mr. McKenzie. It was the day before.
