13. Informant: Comfortable
14. Interview: Conversational
15. Content Notes: The informant discusses in the beginning of region 6 how when the inhabitants in the ranch had gone to town, cowboys would come through and stay in the house while they were gone, cook themselves some food, but never disturb or steal anything. Also, the informant speaks for almost the entire reel with minimal interruption. His stories are fascinating, discussing everything from the use of different words to his father’s history in the automotive industry to being a young ranch-hand.
