Mr. Hall. No; I didn't think of it.
Mr. Liebeler. Did you have a feeling, or did you think about this before the assassination?
Mr. Hall. No.
Mr. Liebeler. You didn't think he was different from anybody else in that respect? You just never thought of it, or it never came to your mind prior to the assassination, is that correct?
Mr. Hall. I felt just the opposite on the recognition part.
Mr. Liebeler. He really didn't care what people thought about him?
Mr. Hall. No; maybe he was saying this wrong to me, what he really believed. But from my thoughts, I thought that he would be happy if he had this so-called job like he was talking about in Russia and had complete security. And I thought this is just what he was looking for in life, was complete serenity and happiness, no problems, no money problems, no rent problems—you see what I mean, just a middle-of-the-roader.
Mr. Liebeler. So you didn't think he had any desire to stand out or be excellent at things?
Mr. Hall. When I said middle-of-the-road, he had these firm ideas which couldn't be changed, as far as I am concerned, and he would go off in the other direction. So that doesn't lead him to be a middle-of-the-roader. He is, from my thinking, a rebellious-type person. He is going to do it the way he thinks right, and nobody is going to change him.
Mr. Liebeler. Did you ever hear, or did you ever take part in any discussion with anyone on the question of whether or not Oswald was possibly an agent of the Soviet Union.
