Mrs. Paine. Yes. No; I don't mean that I specifically recall real warmth being shown, but that his behavior was much as it often was and I judged that he was there to make up for the fight in some way.
Mr. Liebeler. And you also thought from observing Marina that she was glad to have him make up the spat or that they had made the spat up?
Mrs. Paine. I didn't see anything opposite to that, at least, so I was left with my assumption unchallenged.
Mr. Liebeler. So, as far as you know, the events that are described by Marina's testimony that I have just read—could perfectly well have happened.
Mrs. Paine. It could perfectly well have happened—indeed—yes.
Mr. Liebeler. After the assassination, did you think about your previous judgment that Oswald had come out there that evening to make up the argument that he had with Marina?
Mrs. Paine. That's what I thought he must have come for.
Mr. Liebeler. After hearing this testimony, as it occurred between Marina and Lee that evening, do you think that could have had anything to do with his attitudes and feelings the next day?
Mrs. Paine. What you read of her testimony is news to me. I had no idea what the tone was of any words that passed between them, and as I say, all I heard that was in any way familiar to me, was that he had asked her to take an apartment—nothing about it being right away. I would say it could certainly have affected his thinking about it the next day. It is conceivable even that he hadn't seriously thought about shooting the President, but that would be sheer conjecture on my part.
Mr. Liebeler. Did you have a washing machine in your house?
