Mr. Ball. And what did Hosty say to that?

Mr. Boyd. He asked him if he denied being to Mexico City—I've just forgotten—it wasn't too awful long before that—I don't recall just exactly what time that he said—I know it was something recent.

Mr. Ball. What did Oswald say?

Mr. Boyd. He said he had not been there.

Mr. Ball. Do you remember anything else that was said?

Mr. Boyd. No, sir; right offhand—I don't.

Mr. Stern. Did he ask him anything about Russia?

Mr. Boyd. Yes, sir; something was asked him—I don't recall who asked him about that, and he told us about going over to Russia, I believe he was there in 1959, or something like that—about 1959. I'll tell you, I didn't keep notes in there because of the fact I was sitting right beside Oswald—right in front of him—more or less.

Mr. Ball. Did anybody keep notes?

Mr. Boyd. I saw the FBI man writing—they had a little book—across the table over there.
