Mr. Liebeler. I don't think he meant it as a joke when he told it.
*Mrs. Oswald. I don't know.
Mrs. Oswald. Maybe Lee said that to George De Mohrenschildt. I do not know whether Lee said that to George De Mohrenschildt or not. I was busy gathering the things.
Mr. Liebeler. Did there appear to be an argument or a discussion between Lee and De Mohrenschildt at that time?
Mrs. Oswald. I don't think so—perhaps they were speaking together—talking English and I didn't understand them.
Mr. Liebeler. How would they usually talk to each other—in Russian or in English?
Mrs. Oswald. Both Russian and English.
Mr. Liebeler. Did George Bouhe have anything to do with your leaving Lee this time?
Mrs. Oswald. George Bouhe told me that if I wanted to leave Lee, he would help me at first, provided I would not go back to Lee. Bouhe did not interfere into my and Lee's affairs, but he wanted to know if I wanted to leave him permanently, he would help me. He told me that if I wanted to leave him for good, then he would help me out, but not if I would go back to him because the second time nobody would help me.
Mr. Liebeler. Now, in fact, you did later go back to Lee; didn't you?
