Mr. Liebeler. Do you recall whether or not Lee was ever in an orphanage, an orphan home here in New Orleans?

Miss Murret. I know the other two boys were, and we were trying to figure out whether he was.

Mr. Liebeler. And you are not sure whether he ever was or not?

Miss Murret. No; I am not.

Mr. Liebeler. But up until the time that Lee left you and went back either to his mother or to Texas, or wherever he went, your recollection is perfectly clear that Lee was a normal, happy, bright young boy? Is that correct?

Miss Murret. Yes.

Mr. Liebeler. You mentioned this man Ekdahl, and can you tell us the background on that, and you were probably around 13, 12 or 13 years old, or perhaps even a little older, when Mrs. Oswald married Mr. Ekdahl; is that correct?

Miss Murret. Yes.

Mr. Liebeler. Do you remember ever having met Mr. Ekdahl?

Miss Murret. I met him once.
