Ruth Hyde Paine (born September 3, 1932) was a friend of Marina Oswald, who was living with her at the time of the JFK assassination. According to five government investigations,〔These were investigations by: the Federal Bureau of Investigation (1963), the Warren Commission (1964), the House Select Committee on Assassinations (1979), and the Dallas Police Department.〕 Lee Harvey Oswald stored the 6.5 mm caliber Carcano rifle that he used to assassinate U.S. President John F. Kennedy in Ruth Paine's garage, unbeknownst to her and her husband, Michael Paine.〔(CE 460 ), Warren Commission Hearings and Exhibits, volume 17, pg. 179.〕〔 == Background == Paine was born Ruth Avery Hyde, to her parents, William A. and Carol E. Hyde.〔(An Inventory of the Ruth Hyde Paine, Marina Oswald Papers, 1963-1968 )〕 She went to Antioch College and became a Quaker. Through her interest in folk dancing and music she met her future husband Michael Paine. Though strictly speaking not a Quaker, Michael attended meetings with Ruth. They married on December 28, 1957. In 1959 Michael Paine got a job with Bell Helicopter in Fort Worth, Texas〔Warren Commission Hearings, vol. 2, p. 385, (Testimony of Michael R. Paine ).〕 and the Paines moved into a house in the suburb of Irving (Michael Paine's step-father, Arthur M. Young, invented the Bell Helicopter). As liberals in Dallas, the Paines were isolated, and Ruth Paine was quite lonely.〔Thomas Mallon, Mrs. Paine's Garage and the Murder of John F. Kennedy. ISBN 0-375-42117-3.〕 Ruth Paine had been studying Russian since 1957. In the late 1950s she participated in Quaker pen pal programs and the East-West Contact Committee, which sponsored visits by three Soviets to the US. In 1963 she signed up to teach a summer class in Russian at St. Mark's School in Dallas, but only one student signed up (William Hootkins, who became an actor and had a minor role in the movie ''Star Wars'' as X-wing pilot Jek Porkins). Ruth Paine met the Oswalds through her interest in Russian. A friend from a singing group, Everett Glover, invited her to a party on February 22, 1963 because he thought she would be interested in meeting people who spoke Russian.〔 The party was arranged by Oswald's friend, 51-year-old Russian émigré George de Mohrenschildt,〔(Warren Commission Report ), Appendix 13, p. 722.〕〔Warren Commission Hearings, vol. 11, p. 396, (Testimony of Ruth Hyde Paine ).〕 a well-educated petroleum geologist with intelligence connections.〔Warren Commission Hearings, volume 9, pp. 190-191, (Testimony of George S. de Mohrenschildt ).〕 The Paines and Oswalds spent much time together after the party. Ruth befriended Marina though Lee was more distant, despite Ruth and Michael's efforts (and the Paines did not care for him much). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ruth Paine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
