Mr. Jenner. Well, what I am trying to have you do is tell us of your acquaintance with George De Mohrenschildt, and avoiding speculation to the extent you can—and the part he played in your life. I am getting at the Russian emigre group here in Dallas.
Mr. Mamantov. Right.
Mr. Jenner. Excuse me, had you known him prior to the time you met him, as you have described?
Mr. Mamantov. No—no, no; I haven't.
Mr. Jenner. Or known of him?
Mr. Mamantov. No; the first time I met him through Mr. Bouhe, and this was a first acquaintance and just like I said, the only places—it was in somebody's house and parties, we usually wouldn't stay too long because of him. We just have some reason—we had a tendency to avoid this person as much as possible.
Mr. Jenner. You acquired a normal or natural aversion to or dislike of George De Mohrenschildt?
Mr. Mamantov. That's correct.
Mr. Jenner. From what he did and what you thought he represented?
Mr. Mamantov. That's correct, because being of the same nationality, I thought he was hurting all of our emigre here in Dallas.
