Mr. Jenner. You apparently were not aware of the fact this country was then at war.
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. But nobody told me there was any military installations around Aransas Pass.
Mr. Jenner. Well, you were seen sketching the countryside.
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. Yes.
Mr. Jenner. And that aroused suspicion.
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. That is right. That is the whole thing.
Mr. Jenner. Now, you were driving cross-country, were you not, with this lady friend of yours?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. Yes.
Mr. Jenner. And on the way back then from Aransas Pass——
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. Some characters stopped the car and came out of the bushes, and they said, "You are a German spy." They said, "You are a German citizen, you are a German spy." It was very strange. Here is my Polish passport. So—they never said anything about sketching. I thought they were from some comedy actors.
