275 | DCA_int_01 | 426.7053 | Did you have one when you were a kid? | 428.0781 |
276 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 428.3554 | Yeah, we had dogs. | 429.7191 |

285 | DCA_int_01 | 440.0264 | Oh were you? | 440.6537 |
286 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 440.7401 | Oh yes. | 441.4492 |
287 | DCA_int_01 | 441.7356 | What kind of stuff did you hunt? | 442.9220 |
288 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 442.9811 | Well we hunt squirrels, rabbits [and] | 445.3585 |
289 | DCA_int_01 | 445.0346 | [Hm.] | 445.3755 |
290 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 446.1665 | coons | 447.1665 |
291 | DCA_int_01 | 447.2302 | Mm. | 447.5074 |
292 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 447.5302 | at night and possum- We go to hunt at night for those. | 450.4939 |
293 | DCA_int_01 | 450.6246 | Mm-hm. | 451.0110 |
295 | | 451.9747 | How did you do that? What's- what's that like? | 453.8930 |
296 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 454.4566 | Well, the dog | 455.8840 |
298 | | 456.1022 | would tree- | 456.8284 |
300 | | 457.1022 | would- | 457.5375 |
302 | | 458.5012 | the possum. | 459.2694 |
304 | | 459.7785 | Then [the]- | 460.2467 |
305 | DCA_int_01 | 459.9921 | [Get started.] | 460.8649 |
306 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 460.6740 | then the possum would go up the tree, | 462.4241 |
307 | | 463.0548 | and someone would climb the tree | 464.8776 |
309 | | 465.1549 | and catch the possum. See a possum won't bite you. | 467.3322 |
310 | DCA_int_01 | 467.7459 | [/Oh, it won't?/] | 468.5857 |
311 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 467.8414 | [But a coon]- | 468.8096 |
312 | | 470.1722 | Uh- When he would go up the tree, you always have to shoot him because coon will tear you all to pieces. | 474.6542 |
313 | DCA_int_01 | 474.8758 | No kidding. | 475.5031 |
314 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 475.5031 | Mm-hm. | 475.9486 |
315 | DCA_int_01 | 476.0349 | They're vicious huh? | 476.9577 |
317 | | 477.4350 | They look so cute. [<laugh>] | 479.3078 |
318 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 478.6851 | [<laugh>] Yes, but they'll tear you all to pieces. | 481.2931 |
319 | DCA_int_01 | 482.7705 | What did you do with a possum when you caught it? | 484.7569 |
320 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 485.2297 | Uh, we carried him home and- | 486.7786 |
322 | | 487.6696 | and put him up and feed him for over a month. See, then he'll be ready to kill. | 491.8289 |
323 | DCA_int_01 | 491.9050 | Oh I [see.] | 492.6641 |
324 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 492.2823 | [And see], then you skin him, | 493.7233 |
325 | | 494.0960 | and you sell his hide. | 495.2643 |
327 | | 495.7461 | And at that time, back in the countries his hide would always sell for six or eight dollars. | 499.9134 |
328 | DCA_int_01 | 500.0724 | No [kidding.] | 500.7134 |
329 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 500.3361 | [See] you cure his hide. | 501.6998 |
330 | DCA_int_01 | 502.2044 | Oh. | 502.5998 |
331 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 502.4589 | Now the coon hide, | 503.8090 |
332 | | 504.2033 | you get | 504.6715 |
334 | | 504.8670 | um, thirty five | 506.1398 |
336 | | 506.6216 | to forty dollars | 507.5444 |
338 | | 507.7489 | /you know/. | 508.3217 |
339 | DCA_int_01 | 507.7899 | <whistle> That's not bad. | 509.3899 |
340 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 509.1933 | Mm-mm. | 509.7434 |
341 | DCA_int_01 | 510.6480 | Hm. | 510.8571 |
343 | | 512.4889 | That's what- | 513.0708 |
345 | | 513.8163 | what I missed out on [growing] up around cities all the [time.] | 516.7335 |
346 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 514.8163 | [Uh-huh.] | 515.1663 |
348 | | 516.2789 | [Um.] | 516.7607 |
349 | | 517.0608 | Well there are lots of people | 518.4836 |
351 | | 519.0199 | went out | 519.4200 |
353 | | 519.7518 | for | 520.1291 |
355 | | 520.6746 | the mink hunting, | 521.6280 |
357 | | 521.9371 | but | 522.2826 |
359 | | 522.6508 | n- n- That was a little rough because you had to be so particular, you couldn't leave your scent when you set your trap. | 527.8999 |
361 | | 528.3908 | Now lots of people did catch the minks, | 530.3591 |
363 | | 531.1228 | and- and- they got good money for those hide when they killed 'em proper. | 534.5627 |
364 | DCA_int_01 | 534.8264 | Mm-hm. | 535.3991 |
366 | | 536.0264 | Do they have mink down in North [Carolina?] | 537.7947 |
367 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 537.4447 | [Oh yes.] Yes, find ['em in the] swamps | 540.2437 |
368 | DCA_int_01 | 539.2474 | [/Oh really/?] | 539.7944 |
369 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 540.9846 | in- on the rivers. You know, North Carolina joins Dismal Swamp. | 545.0110 |
370 | DCA_int_01 | 545.6019 | Oh yeah. Yeah, yeah, that's right. | 547.1883 |
371 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 547.2929 | You know in History, you read a lot [about Dismal] Swamp. | 549.8294 |
372 | DCA_int_01 | 548.8748 | [Uh-huh.] | 549.2748 |
373 | | 549.8464 | Yeah. | 550.1782 |
375 | | 551.5556 | /Noted./ | 552.0556 |
377 | | 552.9920 | Well how do these dogs get- | 554.0875 |
379 | | 554.6557 | get on the trail of these animals? | 556.7411 |
380 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 557.2956 | Well, when we leave home, we would go out into the forest, | 560.4367 |
382 | | 560.9094 | and they just walk around and run around til they pick up | 564.0039 |
383 | DCA_int_01 | 564.4403 | Mm-hm. | 564.7858 |
384 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 564.7676 | the scent of the track. | 565.8994 |
385 | | 566.1904 | /Seen/, then they would trail. | 567.6768 |
386 | DCA_int_01 | 568.4348 | How do you train one of those dogs? Or do they just do it by [instincts?] | 571.7759 |
387 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 571.3531 | [Well,] I think it's just a | 573.0032 |
388 | | 573.5703 | instinct of a dog. | 574.8067 |
389 | DCA_int_01 | 574.8021 | Hm. | 575.0567 |
390 | | 575.9931 | There's nothing you can do to train 'em? | 577.5250 |
391 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 577.5250 | N- I don't think so. It's just a i- instinct. | 580.0649 |
392 | | 581.5877 | But- but- I will say, now when a dog was small when you raise 'em, | 585.2879 |
394 | | 585.5697 | see they'll follow the older dog and [the older] dog teach 'em quite a bit. | 589.5597 |
395 | DCA_int_01 | 587.5596 | [I see.] | 587.9232 |
396 | | 589.8597 | So they learn from the- | 591.2041 |
397 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 591.3177 | Yes. | 592.0223 |
398 | DCA_int_01 | 592.2859 | /Oh boy./ | 592.7996 |
400 | | 593.5860 | Yeah, that's interesting. | 594.8088 |
401 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 594.8088 | Mm-hm. | 595.3042 |
402 | DCA_int_01 | 595.3042 | I wished I could have done [that.] | 596.7214 |
403 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 596.4998 | [Yeah.] | 597.1271 |
404 | DCA_int_01 | 596.8896 | [<laugh>] | 597.4350 |
405 | | 598.0851 | Never had the /chance/. | 599.2351 |
407 | | 600.3943 | Thirty five dollars for a coon skin. | 602.2580 |
408 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 602.4160 | Oh- oh- | 602.8569 |
410 | | 603.1751 | When it's cured [proper.] | 604.2479 |
411 | DCA_int_01 | 604.0524 | [When it's] cured right? | 604.9297 |
412 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 604.9297 | Mm-hm. | 605.3343 |
413 | DCA_int_01 | 606.8980 | /Hm./ Oh that's more /??/ fascinating to me. | 609.6833 |
415 | | 612.1880 | Uh, | 612.5835 |

420 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 617.1689 | well my favorite subject was History. | 619.2417 |
421 | DCA_int_01 | 620.0236 | No kidding. | 620.5054 |
422 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 620.5782 | Uh-huh. | 621.1180 |
423 | DCA_int_01 | 622.6226 | What was so exciting about that? | 624.2272 |
424 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 625.1091 | Well, | 625.8000 |
426 | | 626.2546 | i- in History- | 627.3671 |
428 | | 628.1535 | See, w- when I was in s- school, George Washington had passed over a hundred years. | 632.8163 |
430 | | 633.2345 | You read about his life. Abraham Lincoln's life | 636.5255 |
432 | | 637.0846 | and | 637.6710 |
434 | | 638.0120 | Thomas Jefferson | 639.2018 |

438 | | 641.3383 | inventors that invented s- things that s- meant a lot to us today. | 644.7237 |
440 | | 645.0328 | I just enjoyed reading about it. | 646.6510 |
441 | DCA_int_01 | 646.7556 | /inaudible/ | 647.6465 |
443 | | 649.3409 | Wha- | 649.6091 |
445 | | 649.8273 | Where did the Dismal Swamp exactly fit into history? I know I've heard the name, but I can't | 654.5366 |
447 | | 654.8503 | place it in History. | 656.0901 |
448 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 656.3901 | Uh, well, you know north of Virginia | 658.5539 |
450 | | 658.8539 | i- is known as tide water. | 660.7812 |
452 | | 661.3529 | Uh, uh, w- well, | 662.9438 |
454 | | 663.4711 | you know Dismal Swamp | 664.8439 |
456 | | 665.3894 | had some of the worst grizzly bear | 667.5566 |
458 | | 667.8748 | I think | 668.3748 |
460 | | 668.6930 | in- anywhere we have in this country. | 670.9249 |
461 | DCA_int_01 | 671.1976 | Hm. | 671.4249 |
462 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 671.5431 | Not speaking of the foreign country, | 673.2841 |
464 | | 673.5921 | an- and I think | 674.4830 |
466 | | 675.1467 | uh, those animals that | 676.5240 |
468 | | 676.7877 | Dismal Swamp had, that's why made it go down in History. | 679.9867 |
469 | DCA_int_01 | 680.2822 | Mm-hm. | 680.8504 |
471 | | 681.6413 | Mm-hm. | 682.0913 |
473 | | 683.1687 | I didn't think there was grizzly- Boy, I'm learning more things today. <laugh> | 686.1404 |
475 | | 686.4540 | I didn't know there was- They were that far east. I thought- | 689.1723 |
476 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 688.6405 | O- Oh yes. Now you take north of about | 691.2668 |
477 | | 691.6804 | two hundred and ten miles from here, | 693.3351 |
479 | | 693.7896 | and when you would go through | 695.0715 |
481 | | 695.3579 | Petersburg and go four sixty through Suffolk, | 697.6614 |
483 | | 697.9750 | you had to go through the heart of Dismal Swamp. | 699.9115 |
484 | DCA_int_01 | 700.2206 | Hm. | 700.4252 |
486 | | 701.4570 | They're all gone now, aren't they? The bears? | 703.5333 |

489 | | 704.5106 | uh- I don't think so [because] | 706.3470 |
490 | DCA_int_01 | 705.6925 | [Really?] | 706.0288 |
491 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 706.6243 | I was down there September, | 708.1562 |
493 | | 708.5642 | and the people were telling me | 709.8961 |
495 | | 710.3143 | they still see those bears. | 711.8825 |
496 | DCA_int_01 | 712.2371 | Gee whiz | 712.7507 |
497 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 712.7917 | Yes. | 713.4280 |
498 | DCA_int_01 | 713.8372 | Hm. | 714.0644 |

503 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 719.7988 | [Mm.] | 720.0625 |
504 | DCA_int_01 | 720.6830 | but I thought they were all out west. | 722.3524 |
505 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 722.5109 | Oh no. | 723.6766 |
506 | DCA_int_01 | 723.7454 | /Wild America./ | 724.5892 |

509 | | 726.5804 | Right near here. We have the deers and everything, but you don't have any bears around here. | 731.5173 |
511 | | 731.6992 | Th- | 731.8204 |
513 | | 732.1328 | Now Dismal Swamp is the nearest place I can tell about the bears. | 735.9284 |
514 | DCA_int_01 | 736.8552 | Do people hunt them there or is it [too dangerous?] | 739.4291 |
515 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 738.3100 | [Oh- oh- uh- uh-] Well | 740.1985 |
516 | | 740.5622 | when they go bear hunting, they always go on horseback., | 742.8738 |

518 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 743.5080 | because too dangerous, and they always carry the | 745.7788 |
519 | | 746.0306 | high power rifles because | 747.7839 |
521 | | 747.9925 | if you just shoot a bear with a ordinary shot gun, | 750.9628 |
523 | | 751.5690 | unless you have buckshot | 753.0378 |
525 | | 753.5973 | he'll grab up leaves and stop hisself from bleeding and come for you. | 756.6038 |

597 | | 852.6023 | and at that age, you know, I didn't want to hear it. | 855.4094 |
598 | DCA_int_01 | 855.4241 | <laugh> | 856.4679 |
600 | | 856.6591 | Hard for kids to understand that. | 858.3610 |
601 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 859.2085 | Well, n- n- no longer than | 860.7193 |
603 | | 861.0737 | two weeks ago, I saw her at my sister's funeral, | 864.0253 |
605 | | 864.4298 | and I told her | 865.1992 |
607 | | 865.9173 | how much I minded her for it then. At that time I couldn't see it but I saw it | 870.1046 |

620 | DCA_int_01 | 885.6798 | Mm-hm. | 886.2534 |
622 | | 888.1127 | What was there about her besides her trying to correct you? | 891.0783 |
624 | | 891.5819 | /inaudible/ | 892.4306 |
625 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 892.1974 | Well, | 892.9761 |
626 | | 893.4751 | now | 894.0719 |
628 | | 894.4391 | she would always take | 895.8287 |
630 | | 896.5188 | more interest | 897.5260 |
632 | | 897.8244 | in not only me, all the children than some of the other teachers that I've had. | 901.5163 |
633 | DCA_int_01 | 901.8100 | Mm-hm. | 902.3509 |
635 | | 904.2767 | That's really important. | 905.3818 |
636 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 906.2619 | It really is. | 907.3158 |
637 | DCA_int_01 | 907.9779 | Did you ever have a teacher that you just couldn't stand? | 910.0995 |
638 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 910.6404 | Oh- uh- Oh yes. [Oh yes.] | 912.9847 |
639 | DCA_int_01 | 912.0195 | [<laugh>] What were they like? | 914.1970 |
640 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 915.0690 | Well it was pretty miserable. I had a teacher when I was in the elementary school | 919.0723 |
642 | | 919.3569 | /that just started at the school/. | 920.5875 |
644 | | 920.8859 | I was left handed, | 921.8337 |
646 | | 922.2068 | and she always whipped me | 923.6056 |
647 | DCA_int_01 | 923.7490 | Hm. | 924.0241 |
648 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 925.3064 | for writing left handed. She always wanted me to write right handed. | 928.5798 |
650 | | 929.4751 | And to the day, I'll never forget that I remember her for that. | 933.0504 |
651 | DCA_int_01 | 933.1949 | Hm. | 933.4793 |
652 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 935.1720 | And I remember those days | 936.6863 |
654 | | 937.0453 | when | 937.3391 |
656 | | 937.7960 | she got angry and wouldn't even let me go to the blackboard. At that time, you know, you had blackboards | 942.6769 |
658 | | 943.2225 | a- to write. All the other classes go to the /back/ board and write. I couldn't because I couldn't write in my right hand. | 949.1106 |
659 | DCA_int_01 | 949.2691 | Hm. | 949.6561 |
661 | | 950.1318 | /Oh, that's nasty./ <laugh> | 951.9783 |
663 | | 952.5565 | Mm-hm. | 953.1160 |

669 | | 957.8524 | did you or any of the kids in the class ever play any tricks on the teacher? | 961.1852 |
670 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 962.9897 | No. | 963.8617 |
672 | | 964.0389 | We didn't ever play any tricks on the teacher because | 966.3937 |
674 | | 966.7189 | our teachers were very strict. [<laugh>] | 969.5633 |
675 | DCA_int_01 | 968.2670 | [<laugh>] | 968.9897 |
676 | | 970.3653 | Mm-hm. | 970.8875 |

686 | | 978.9101 | Good. | 979.2132 |
687 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 980.4209 | But the kids in the classroom, we played tricks on them, put tacks in the chairs and- | 985.4277 |
689 | | 985.8800 | and pinned their coat | 987.2555 |
691 | | 987.8337 | down to the seat. They go to get up, they [have to take the whole chair up.] | 991.2971 |
692 | DCA_int_01 | 989.8656 | [<laugh>] That's funny. | 993.8664 |
693 | | 994.2953 | Did you ever do any other things like that? | 996.1325 |

706 | DCA_se3_ag3_m_04 | 1016.7986 | No. As the years pass by, | 1019.0041 |
708 | | 1019.5403 | you never see 'em anymore. | 1020.8075 |
709 | DCA_int_01 | 1021.5955 | Is there a group of adults that you associate with now? | 1024.2860 |
