(Testimony of Mrs. Donald Gibson)

Mrs. Gibson.
a good hour looking for this address. And I can't think of where it was, and we never found it. I do remember that. We never found it.
Mr. Jenner.
But it had something to do with Oswald?
Mrs. Gibson.
I think it did. I think it had to do with a room that he had over there, but where it was, the address, I don't know. I never knew Oak Cliff very well in the first place.
Mr. Jenner.
You say he was now employed and could afford a room?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes; but I don't know where. I--we couldn't find it wherever it was, because we looked.
Mr. Jenner.
But you did have an address at that time?
Mrs. Gibson.
I had an address for something I was looking for. What it was I don't know. If I was looking for him or if I was looking for somebody else, if Gary was looking for somebody, I don't recall. But it could possibly be that it was him that we were looking for. I don't know how Gary thinks I can remember an address, though. I don't.
Mr. Jenner.
Do you recall an occasion when you assisted Marina and Lee to move into the Elsbeth Street apartment?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes; I do.
Mr. Jenner.
What day of the week was that?
Mrs. Gibson.
I don't know. Weekend.
Mr. Jenner.
Was that a weekend?
Mrs. Gibson.
It seems reasonable that it would have been a weekend, but then with Gary working as a cabdriver, I don't know if it was or not, because he sometimes worked weekends. They were good days to work. Saturday was very good. Was it a Sunday?
Mr. Jenner.
Yes. Wait a minute, it was a Saturday, the 3d of November 1962, was a Saturday.
Mrs. Gibson.
Did we move him in on that day or did he start rent from that day?
Mr. Jenner.
The advice of the landlord or manager of the building was they moved in on the third, but do you recall that it was a weekend rather than a weekday?
Mrs. Gibson.
I wouldn't know. It could have been. It seems more logical that it would have been a weekend.
Mr. Jenner.
Now, tell us about that from the beginning. What led up to it, how you participated, the extent you participated with your husband?
Mrs. Gibson.
Well, when we were over in Fort Worth visiting Mrs. Hall, we had taken Lee over there to see Marina, we told them we would help them move when he found a place, and he came by one evening or--
Mr. Jenner.
Excuse me. This then was after he had obtained a job?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes. He either called or came by one evening.
Mr. Jenner.
Was Mrs. Hall home on that occasion when you went over to see them?
Mrs. Gibson.
When we moved them or before. that other time?
Mr. Jenner.
That other time.
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes; she was.
Mr. Jenner.
So this was subsequent to October 26?
Mrs. Gibson.
And also we were over there to visit them also another time after she had the accident, and I remember she was in bed.
Mr. Jenner.
Was it before or after she went to the hospital?
Mrs. Gibson.
It was after, right after, when she came home and she was still in bed. It was before she went to New York.
Mr. Jenner.
She came back on the 26th of October?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes; and we went over there and she was still in bed.
Mr. Jenner.
Was that the occasion? Was he there?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
Was that the occasion when you told him that you would help him move?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
When he found a place?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes; I believe he said he was looking. And I believe --
Mr. Jenner.
Lee was at the Halls' on that occasion?
