Mr. Liebeler. And that he enclosed with his letter a copy of the Executive order and of the resolution to which I have just referred, as well as a copy of the rules of procedure adopted by the Commission concerning the taking of testimony of witnesses. Did you receive Mr. Rankin's letter and those documents?
Mrs. Smith. Yes; I did.
Mr. Liebeler. One of the areas of inquiry of the Commission relates to the background and possible motive of Lee Harvey Oswald, the alleged assassin of the President. We understand that you knew Lee Oswald at some point while he was living here in New Orleans. Before we get into the details of that, however, I would like to have you state your name for the record, if you will.
Mrs. Smith. Bennierita Smith.
Mr. Liebeler. You are married? Is that correct?
Mrs. Smith. Yes, sir.
Mr. Liebeler. What was your name before you were married?
Mrs. Smith. Sparacio. My maiden name?
Mr. Liebeler. Yes.
Mrs. Smith. Sparacio, S-p-a-r-a-c-i-o.
