Show JOHN GALLEY a very congenial bunch to work with. HH: Did that go for Blair Burwell when he was, would you say that he had a lot of, a large sense of humor, or dry sense of humor, or what kind? JG: Yes, Burwell was ready for everything that came along. HH: Was he? Mr. Verray, I talked to him yesterday evening and he brought up the story that you told me about the time you staged the holdup for one of the fellows. Sounds like you must have had a good time doing that. JG: Yeah, we had lots of fun. Well, nobody had a car and of course we would go together and hire a car and come to the dance. There was a dance every Saturday night in Nucla. We danced till about three o'clock and we'd get home, in the wintertime when we had to come by horse, team and buggy, we'd get home just in time for breakfast. Pretty cold ride in the wintertime in a buckboard. HH: That's a pretty full trip, though when you don't get back 'till about that time. JG: But we all enjoyed it. We had good times. We had to make our own amusement, though. HH: What kind of things would you do for amusement in camp there? JG: Oh, we had, played cards and played jokes on one another. HH: What kind of cards would you play? JG: Mostly cribbage. 6 |
