Because, really, there was one more point that was very strange about Oswald—my feelings were. He sort of wanted to cut off the communication of Marina—even with Russian people. Because he was so unpleasant to Russians—to those folks around who tried to help her, you know. He was quite rude, quite unpleasant—and, for some reason, we got the impression that he has a reason not to want her to communicate with people, to learn English, or to be together with Russians.
Mr. Jenner. All right.
Now, I'd like to ask you a few questions about that. That's why I asked you all the detail about your coming here, and how you became acquainted. This was out of the ordinary, as far as the community in which you moved is concerned?
Mrs. Voshinin. Yes; yes.
Mr. Jenner. I take it that that community was Bouhe, De Mohrenschildts—and however you may have liked or disliked them in their efforts, the attitude always was to get everybody acquainted with everybody else as quickly as possible and to assist them? Now, this would be especially true, for example, of Marina—that you'd like to bring her into the circle?
Mrs. Voshinin. I really can't say because we are not very close with that circle, St. Nicholas circle, you know—St. Nicholas Parish circle.
Mr. Jenner. Well, I really am not thinking about that particular parish.
Mrs. Voshinin. Yeah.
Mr. Jenner. I'm trying to put the background to what was bothering you—that the normal thing that you expected—would expect of these people——
Mrs. Voshinin. Oh, yeah. I understand you now. Yeah. Quite.
