with the baby boy for the man when

56:58

he was 10. He

57:01

said he'd been through tough a times

57:03

but he can't remember when. It's

57:07

called his granddad's home from the family down

57:09

below. He's

57:11

calling his granddad to the only house

57:14

that ain't with me. He

57:52

got married had a family and he

57:54

knew they'd come a day. He

57:56

got out of the company house and a

57:58

life with little children. He tried

58:00

his hand as a businessman,

58:03

bought a diner in a

58:05

nearby town, left a

58:07

mind not to raise up a

58:09

mark in the day to day.

59:18

He took him off with that

59:20

1959 and ran

59:23

off with a fetching fine when they

59:25

closed the Kramer mine. Granddaddy

59:28

doubled down a bull rhyme

59:30

he could run, to

59:33

keep his family in their homes

59:35

and to keep his family in

59:37

their homes and to keep his family

59:39

in their homes. He

59:43

took him

59:45

off with

59:47

a fetching fine when they closed the Kramer

59:49

mine. He took him off

59:51

with a fetching fine when they closed the

59:53

Kramer mine. I'm

1:00:02

not afraid of you. I

1:00:08

can't help you. I'm

1:00:11

afraid of you.
