Mr. De Mohrenschildt. I could talk for hours about this project, because it was developed through so many years, and so much effort.
Mr. Jenner. In order that the correspondence be complete, Mr. De Mohrenschildt has produced for me the response he received to his letter of December 12, 1963, to Mrs. Auchincloss.
Mr. De Mohrenschildt, since it is a personal letter, I will ask you to read the letter in evidence. It has a longhand note on it. You might want to keep the original. So just read it. And just for the purpose of the record, and not because I suspicion you, I will watch you read it.
It is on letterhead, 3044 O Street, Northwest, Washington, D.C.
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. That is correct.
"Dear George:
"Thank you for your letter and for your sympathy for Jacqueline. Please accept my deepest sympathy in the loss of your son. How tragic for you.
"It seems extraordinary to me that you knew Oswald and that you knew Jackie as a child. It is certainly a very strange world."
Mr. Jenner. Hold it a minute. The second paragraph begins with the words "It seems."
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. "You did not say why you were in Haiti, so I imagine that you are in our Foreign Service. If you come to Washington again, I would like to talk with you, and I would very much like to meet your wife. When you next write to Dimitri, will you send him my warmest regards, and thank him for his sympathy."
