Mrs. Paine. These, no; this is descriptive of what I sent and the situation surrounding the note I sent to her on December 21, and as I say, I have no copy of that note. I included a Christmas greeting from myself and my children and expressed my concern for her and said I didn't want to bother her, but I did want to see her.
Mr. Jenner. To the extent you can recite it literally, do so, please.
Mrs. Paine. I can't—I handed this note to Mr. Martin in his home.
Mr. Jenner. Is this the note you had in mind when you testified last week before the Commission that you had gone to his home and delivered something to him?
Mrs. Paine. That's right.
Mr. Jenner. Along with some other letters that had come containing contributions from kindhearted Americans which had been sent to Marina and arrived at your home?
Mrs. Paine. That's right. I talked with Mr. Martin and after having talked with him I added something to my note, saying that I had talked with him and that it had relieved my mind somewhat about her. I also brought that same day an opened package containing wrapped Christmas gifts which had come to my home addressed to me from a lady who had previously written to inquire what kind of gifts might be appropriate for Marina's children. When I opened the package, though the outside had been addressed to me, the inside was labeled, "Rachel" and "Junie", and clearly Christmas gifts for Marina and the two children. I also brought a small box of Christmas cookies for the Martin family.
Mr. Jenner. As gifts from you and your children to the Martin family?
Mrs. Paine. That's right; that's correct.
Agent Howlett. I remeasured that window at the southeast corner of the house—the first bedroom—the one which Marina was in, and that picture window is correctly 3 feet 7 inches wide.
