Mrs. MURRET. Well, I wouldn't remember what year, you know, or anything like that, when the marriage took place. I know about how long they were married. I think they were married about 2 years, but I'm not really too accurate as to years.
Mr. JENNER. Well, as closely as you can come to it.
Mrs. MURRET. I know what happened, but the dates I just don't recall exactly, because I had my own affairs to take care of, so I can't remember dates in her life, but anyway, she was married to Eddie for 2 years, we'll say----
Mr. JENNER. Let me interrupt you for a minute. Tell me something about that marriage. Who was he? Did the marriage, take place here? Were you present? What do you know about that marriage?
Mrs. MURRET. I don't know too much about the marriage. I don't think it took place here. I just don't know anything about that. It might have taken place over on the Gulf Coast. I don't know if I am right on that or not. That has been so long ago, but Marguerite did know Eddie a very long time.
Mr. JENNER. She had known him for some time before she married him?
Mr. JENNER. Had you known him for some time before she married him?
Mr. JENNER. What was his business or occupation?
Mrs. MURRET. Well, Eddie worked for Smith. I think they are stevedores.
Mr. JENNER. What did he do as a stevedore?
Mrs. MURRET. Well, I don't know what type of work he did. I think it was clerical work. I think he is still with the same people.
Mrs. MURRET. Oh, yes. I think it's T. B. Smith, or something like that. I don't know what the initials stand for.
Mr. JENNER. And you think Edward John Pic is still employed by them?
Mrs. MURRET. Yes; he is--some kind of clerical work, as far as I know. The reason I know he is is because Mr. Murret, who works on the river, saw him out there, but it was from a distance.
Mr. JENNER. Your husband works on the riverfront, does he?
Mr. JENNER. Were you married to your husband before or after Marguerite married Edward John Pic?
Mr. JENNER. You were already married then?
Mr. JENNER. And your husband does have an acquaintance with Edward John Pic, does he?
Mrs. MURRET. Oh, no. He just maybe occasionally will see him from a distance, but he has never spoken with him. In fact, I don't think I would know Eddie Pic if I saw him on the street. That has been so long ago. I don't think I would recognize him myself. Eddie Pic was a very peculiar type of boy, you might say a person who did not talk unless you spoke to him, and they would come over to my home for dinner or something, and he would sit there all day long and he wouldn't say anything. Now, I don't know whether all of this is important. I don't guess some of it is.
