Hidell = hide Lee and Lee.

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.

Good one - however, the novelist Don Delillo hit on this in his 1980s book on Oswald, Libra.

Richard Case Nagell said something about the meaning of "Hidell," but I'm having difficulty recalling it.
Anyone remember?

Thanks, David. I truly was not aware.
Great literary minds think alike, I guess!

Delillo had it as Hide-ell (ell = graphic representation of sound of letter L) - "Hidell means Don't Tell." It's a good book.

Something about Nag-ell, Hid-ell.
Also I don't know if it's in Russell or not, but I seem to remember from somwhere Jekyll + Hyde ==> Hidell...
And there are others ...

Dick Russell wrote that the "-ell" in Hidell was copied from the -ell in Nagell, and that he and Oswald used one-ell and two-ell spellings of the names Nagell and Hidell under different alias circumstances. It is possible that these five-letter vs. six-letter versions indicated work for the US some times and the Russians other times (Russell suggests that this is how Nagell used his "Nagel" alias, at least.)
Russell confronted Nagell with the idea that the "Hid-" in Hidell stood for the HID, a South Korean intelligence agency that Nagell worked with in Japan, and that Nagell may have had Oswald working for. Russell said that Nagell looked surprised at this reference, and then avoided the question, refusing to confirm or deny.
The Nagell-Oswald nexus is one of the most fascinating leads to assassination investigation.

Yeah, that was really interesting. Thanks for refreshing us on this.
