Mr. Jenner. Do you know whether Marina or Lee Oswald knew the De Mohrenschildts?
Mr. Mamantov. I know that Marina related the conversations to my mother-in-law as "our best friends in Dallas," referring to both of the De Mohrenschildts.
Mr. Jenner. You are now stating that your mother-in-law told you that Marina said to her, "These were their best friends in Dallas"?
Mr. Mamantov. That's correct.
Mr. Jenner. We both appreciate that that is pure hearsay, but that remark was made to you?
Mr. Mamantov. I mean, it was made in a family—after my conversation between my mother-in-law and Marina.
Mr. Jenner. And there was yourself—and anybody else present——
Mr. Mamantov. My wife was present.
Mr. Jenner. When your mother-in-law made that statement in your presence?
Mr. Mamantov. Yes; that's correct.
