(Testimony of Mrs. Donald Gibson)


She brought her to my place. I had told her that, I believe I myself, told her that Marina had stayed with me. I mean it is just in common conversation that she must have known. Didn't she know?
Mr. Jenner.
Including this 3- or 4-day period?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes; she must have known because that was before Marina stayed with her. Does she know?
Mr. Jenner.
She didn't mention it in her testimony.
Mrs. Gibson.
Am I the last one to testify?
Mr. Jenner.
No. Mrs. Gibson, were you aware that Lee Oswald gave your apartment address and your telephone number--when I say your I mean you and your husband--when he was seeking employment in Dallas?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes; he asked Gary's permission and Gary said all right.
Mr. Jenner.
That was in your presence?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
Was that permission requested before he went to the YMCA on the 15th of October ? He obtained his Job at Jaggars, remember, on the 12th of October.
Mrs. Gibson.
I believe it was before. He said he needed to establish a residence, and a place where people could get in touch with him, where if there were any Jobs coming up that they could get in touch with him and call him and he would check with us and we would tell him if there had been any calls for him or messages during the day.
Mr. Jenner.
Now, were there any calls or messages?
Mrs. Gibson.
No; not that I recall. I don't believe there were.
Mr. Jenner.
And do you recall him looking for work during this period? That would be the 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th of October.
Mrs. Gibson.
I really don't know. If he had a job, it doesn't seem that he would be looking for a job.
Mr. Jenner.
He was at the Texas Employment Commission on the 9th, 10th, and 11th.
Mrs. Gibson.
Then probably he was. And if he gave our address and our phone number; I am sure he was.
Mr. Jenner.
But you don't recall where he was staying during that period?
Mrs. Gibson.
No.
Mr. Jenner.
The 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th, and 14th?
Mrs. Gibson.
No.
Mr. Jenner.
Could he have been staying at Hall's?
Mrs. Gibson.
Gee, it is possible, but I don't know.
Mr. Jenner.
But you do recall that he did stay at the Hall's a good deal or portions of the time that Marina was there?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes; he went there weekends, as I recall, when he was working. He spent the weekends there.
Mr. Jenner.
When he was working at Jaggars?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
So when he began to work at Jaggars, which was the 12th of October, up to the 3d of November when you and your husband, Mr. Taylor, took the Oswalds to the Elsbeth Street apartment, he visited at the Hall's on weekends?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
So there was some place he was staying then himself during that period?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes; there must have been.
Mr. Jenner.
Did Mrs. Hall live in Fort Worth?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
And Fort Worth is approximately 30 miles?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
From Dallas, isn't it?
Mrs. Gibson.
He didn't stay in Fort Worth.
Mr. Jenner.
He stayed in Dallas?
Mrs. Gibson.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
But you can't recall still where he stayed in Dallas?
Mrs. Gibson.
No; I have no idea.
