Mr. Bouhe. She said no.
Mr. Liebeler. Did you have any reason to believe that she could understand English?
Mr. Bouhe. Yes; I said, well, in sort of a joking way, "Well, my God, you have an American husband. Didn't he teach you sweet nothings." Or something like that.
"Oh, yes. I know I love you. Come kiss me quick, or something like that."
But she did not speak English. And when we spoke English in front of her, for instance, at Mrs. Gregory's, who is not a Russian——
Mr. Liebeler. Mrs. Gregory?
Mr. Bouhe. I said, "Marina, I am sorry, but we have to say these few words in English."
"Oh, well, that is all right, I will learn it sometime," or something like that.
Mr. Liebeler. But it did not appear to you that she understood English?
Mr. Bouhe. It did not appear to me; yes. And then on that subject I have talked with you.
