Oswald. There is a signature on the first page. The signature is Mr. William A. McKenzie.

      Mr. Jenner. You are familiar with that signature, and that is his signature?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir.

      Mr. Jenner. The same gentleman we have identified?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir.

      Mr. Jenner. All right. Are there any signatures on the second page of that exhibit?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir. There are two signatures on the second page, and in order as they appear——

      Mr. Jenner. Excuse me. Are you familiar with either of them?

      Mr. Oswald. I am familiar with one of them.

      Mr. Jenner. All right. Let's take the first one, which is what?

      Mr. Oswald. Mrs. Marina N. Oswald.

      Mr. Jenner. You are familiar with her signature?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir; I am.

      Mr. Jenner. Is that her signature?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir. I would say that was her signature.

      Mr. Jenner. And the second name appears to be that of whom?

      Mr. Oswald. Mrs. Katherine Ford.

      Mr. Jenner. And your testimony with respect to her, were I to pursue it, would be the same as you testified to a previous exhibit, insofar as your familiarity with her signature is concerned?

      Mr. Oswald. That is correct.

      Mr. Jenner. Thank you, sir.

      Forgive the interruption, Mr. Chairman.

      Mr. Dulles. That is all right.

      Mr. Jenner. Mr. Chairman, Mr. McKenzie has produced for us and tendered to us four documents, during the recess, which I would wish to identify. They have a relationship to the exhibits, the signatures of which I have just finished having identified.

      Would you mark those, please, Mr. Liebeler?

      Mr. Dulles. Do you wish these admitted as exhibits?

      Mr. Jenner. If you please, sir. I would like to identify the exhibits and indicate their content first.

      I would call on you, Mr. McKenzie, to identify the series of exhibits. They are numbered, Mr. Chairman, Commission Exhibits 276, 277, 278, and 279.

      If you will identify them, I may have some questions of the witness.

      Mr. McKenzie. Mr. Chairman, Exhibit No. 276 is a contract dated December 6, 1963, addressed to Mr. James H. Martin, Dallas, Tex., and signed by Mrs. Marina N. Oswald, consisting of four pages.

      Mr. Dulles. I wish that admitted at this time with that description.

      Mr. Jenner. If I may put one question to the witness: Mr. Oswald, would you look at the last page of that exhibit? Does it purport to bear a signature?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir.

      Mr. Jenner. Are you familiar with that signature?

      Mr. Oswald. There are three signatures.

      Mr. Jenner. Are you familiar with all of them?

      Mr. Oswald. May I ask my attorney something here?

      Mr. Jenner. Surely.

      Mr. McKenzie. Mr. Jenner, if I may interrupt you, and pardon me for doing so—on page 3 there is likewise a signature. And I think perhaps he should start at that page.

      Mr. Jenner. That is a fine suggestion.

      Will you now refer to page 3. Does it bear a signature?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir; it does.

      Mr. Jenner. Are you familiar with that signature?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir; I am.

      Mr. Jenner. Whose signature is it?

      Mr. Oswald. Mrs. Marina N. Oswald.

      Mr. Jenner. Turn to page 4. There are several signatures on that page, is that correct?

      Mr. Oswald. That is correct. There are three.

      Mr. Jenner. Are you familiar with any of them?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir; I am.

      Mr. Jenner. Would you take them in order, taking the uppermost one first. Indicate whether you are familiar with that signature, and whose signature it is.

      Mr. Oswald. It is my own signature, Robert Oswald.

      Mr. Jenner. The next under that?

      Mr. Oswald. Mr. James H. Martin.

      Mr. Jenner. Are you familiar with that signature?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir.

      Mr. Jenner. And it is his signature?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir.

      Mr. Jenner. Who is Mr. James H. Martin?

      Mr. Oswald. He was, at that time, when this contract was signed, appointed as Marina's business agent. But employed at the Inn of the Six Flags at Arlington, Tex.

      Mr. Jenner. He has been identified in previous sessions before the Commission.

      And there is a third signature?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir; there is.

      Mr. Jenner. And are you familiar with that signature?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir; I am.

      Mr. Jenner. Whose is it, please?

      Mr. Oswald. Mr. John M. Thorne, Attorney.

      Mr. Jenner. And he is the Mr. Thorne that we have identified a few moments ago?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir.

      Mr. Jenner. He was at that time the attorney for Mrs. Marina Oswald?

      Mr. Oswald. That is correct.

      Mr. Jenner. Is there a fourth signature?

      Mr. Oswald. No, sir; there is not.

      Mr. Jenner. Were those signatures affixed in your presence?

      Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir; they were.

      Mr. Dulles. Mr. Jenner, I believe these are photostatic copies, are they not, that are being identified?

      Mr. Jenner. Yes, sir.

      Mr.
