Mr. Jenner. Were these regular?
Mrs. Voshinin. Quite regular. And usually it would coincide, somehow, with his next assignment. You see, you asked me to think at that time, prior to November 22, 1963. At that time, it did not bother us at all. We just didn't give much thought to that.
Mr. Jenner. But you noticed it?
Mrs. Voshinin. We noticed it definitely. Yes. Because he was always expecting some telephone calls from Houston. If they would be at our house, for example, she would tell me that he give our telephone number, you know, to call him—and it would be from Houston.
But he also was traveling so extensively that it was absolutely impossible to remember everywhere where he went. I know that he went a lot to New York on business; he went a lot to Philadelphia on his private business—private life. Of course, that would include Dee Dee Sharples—concerning his third wife and children. They had disagreement there.
Mr. Jenner. Did you and your husband have occasion to discuss these Houston trips recently?
Mrs. Voshinin. Yes; recently. And we discussed also those Houston trips before November 22—because our friends, the Jitkoffs, they mentioned to us that they don't like George at all and they didn't want us to bring him to their house. And I asked why, and she didn't want to tell exactly why, but she said something about some people—some character whom he is visiting in Houston.
Mr. Jenner. Character?
Mrs. Voshinin. Yes.
Mr. Jenner. What did you gather from that? Did she use the word "character"?
