They are the very same chaps, like as not, the visitors have seen in plays at the city theatres; but of course they don't know 'em in plain clothes. Kings and Emperors look pretty shabby off the stage sometimes, I can tell you." The young man followed the Interviewer's lead. "I shouldn't wonder if you were right," he said.
And the second is down in the country somewheres. We are separated. "I don't get no help from the Welfare, wish I did. I ain't had no money to get to the doctor with my eyes." Interviewer's Comments The old lady sat with her eyes nearly closed while I questioned her and listened to her story. Those eyes ran and looked as though they needed attention badly.
Peter's to hand on the same traditions, and make the same claims. 'But if you don't acknowledge the tradition or the claims! why shouldn't you feel just the human interest? 'Oh, of course, if you want to take the mere vulgar, parochial view the halfpenny interviewer's view why, you must take it! he said, almost with violence, shrugging his shoulders. Lucy's eyes sparkled.
My husband's name was David Sloan. I don't know exactly how long he and me were married. It was way over twenty years. My license got burnt up. "You know I couldn't be nothin' but a Christian."

My race is the best fitted for farming and that is where we belong. I never been in jail. I never been arrested in my whole life."

I don't believe in layin' in bed late. I go to bed directly after dark and I wake up early. The Lord never did mean for nobody to sleep all day." Interviewer's Comment A number of people testify to Laura Thornton's age. I am trying to check up on it. Results later. She has feeble health, but a surprisingly alert mind, and a keen sharp memory.
"There are quite a few old persons around Woodson that can give you information. But that is in Saline County, I think. Sweet Home, Wrightsville, Toltec all of them have a few old colored persons on the farm that was here in slavery times." Interviewer's Comment Reeves' story was taken because of his clear memories of his parents and grandparents.
Well, an interviewer's business is the same thing. His man is his oyster, which he, not with sword, but with pencil and note-book, must open. Mark how the oysterman's thin blade insinuates itself, how gently at first, how strenuously when once fairly between the shells!
