Recorded between 1966 & 1968.

Note: This story appears in the resource NOA003R041I001.

Narrated by Narrator #2. [Note: It is definitely a different voice than that of Elías Chamarra. The tape box indicates the narrator could be Diomere, Audolino, Agusto, or (Koidam). However, it is not probable that it is the last three people, since the location of recording does not seem to change and since Audolino, Augusto, or (Koidam) almost never visited the house of Elías. ]
