Mr. JENNER. Now, you used the expression "arrogant." What did you mean by that?
Mrs. EVANS. Well, you know--I don't know, just the way he talked, and walked around, I guess. I don't know what gives you that feeling when you are around somebody like that. He was just different.
Mr. JENNER. Do you think he considered himself superior to anybody else, or to his fellow Americans, or anything like that?
Mrs. EVANS. Well, I wouldn't say he acted like he was superior to anybody else. He acted normal in that respect, I guess, but he talked about Russia and he talked about the way they lived, and then he said, "It's good to be back in the United States," and he said he would have come back before he did if it had not been for this Russian girl that he married. He said he had been in Texas 8 months then, and I said, "Well, what made you come back to New Orleans?" and he said, "Well, you know, this is my home, and I wanted to see my family."
Mrs. EVANS. Yes. He said he wanted to see if he could locate any of his family, that he didn't know who any of them were any more.
Mr. JENNER. Did he say anything at all as to whether he was happy or unhappy in Russia?
Mrs. EVANS. No; he didn't say anything about that, except he said he would have come back sooner if he hadn't married this girl, and he had to wait until he could bring her out of the country.
Mr. JENNER. Did he say anything about having been in the service?
Mrs. EVANS. No; he didn't say anything about that, but I found that out.
Mr. JENNER. Did he say anything about what his ambitions were, what his objectives were in life now that he was back home?
Mr. JENNER. Did he have any luggage with him?
Mrs. EVANS. Not when he came to my house. He said he had been staying at his aunt's.
Mr. JENNER. Did he talk about any of his old friends?
Mr. JENNER. When he was a teenager, did he ever smoke?
Mr. JENNER. Did you ever know him to smoke?
Mr. JENNER. Would you say he was temperate with respect to smoking?
Mrs. EVANS. No; he was very deep; a very deep boy, and he liked to dig into things, and he liked music and books.
Mr. JENNER. Would you say he was a voracious reader?
Mrs. EVANS. Yes; he liked to read, and he liked to listen to the radio.
Mr. JENNER. What kind of music drew his attention, classics?
