Mr. Jenner. And his burial?
Mr. Pic. Yes, sir.
Mr. Jenner. Did you attend the funeral services?
Mr. Pic. No, sir; I was not permitted. In fact, the Secret Service did not let me write Robert for, I think, 7 to 8 days after the assassination. At that time they granted me permission to freely correspond with him.
Mr. Jenner. And you did so?
Mr. Pic. I think we have written about two, three letters back and forth. I am the one who fails to write. He never fails to write.
Mr. Jenner. The subject matter of these letters involved Lee; any of them?
Mr. Pic. I think the very first one I got concerned the welfare of his family. They were out at the farm. That his company treated him very good about all the time lost. That Marina asked about us and how we were getting along. In my return letter to him I told him nobody had bothered us and we were getting along just fine. He informed me that he was—I suggested if they could, to come down and stay with us awhile. We had just purchased a new house, we had the room, and he wrote back and told me that because he had missed all the time because of the incidents he was unable to get any more time from his company without losing his job.
Mr. Jenner. Have you seen Marina in the meantime?
Mr. Pic. No, sir.
