Title A name given to the resource Jack London at Utah State University Description An account of the resource Jack London, legendary author of adventure classics such as Call of the Wild and White Fang, came from blue-collar beginnings and was largely self-taught. He based many of his exciting literary yarns on his hard-scrabble life experiences which included poaching oysters, laboring at a cannery, jute mill, and coal power plant, and panning for gold in the Alaskan Klondike. Broken by personal despair, two unsuccessful attempts to have children with second wife Charmian, the destruction of his California dream home, and slow kidney failure from years of alcohol abuse, London died on November 22, 1916, at age forty. This selective small digital collection highlights his will, letters, and book inscriptions that offer insights into his complex relationships with the important women in his life: first wife Bessie, second wife Charmian, daughters Joan and Bess, mother Flora, &ldquo;mammy&rdquo; Jennie, and friend/collaborator Anna Strunsky. Other items in the digital collection include photographs and book covers. For more details about London&rsquo;s life as well as a full inventory of USU&rsquo;s larger print collection of Jack and Charmian London materials, see <a href="http://uda-db.orbiscascade.org/findaid/ark:/80444/xv27206">http://uda-db.orbiscascade.org/findaid/ark:/80444/xv27206</a>. Merrill-Cazier Library's Special Collections and Archives houses one of the largest Jack London manuscript collections in the world, second only to the prestigious Huntington Library in San Marino, California. This acquisition was a result of the close personal and professional relationship between Irving Shepard, Jack London's nephew and executor of his literary estate, and King Hendricks, a prominent London scholar and English professor at USU. Thanks to a series of purchases and donations from the London estate made between 1964 and 1971, USU is now proud to provide online access to selected material from the collection.

TAPE TRANSCRIPTION Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 2 [00:01] HWE: Okay, it is May 16th, 2015. This is Hilary Warner-Evans interviewing Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa. SGG: Yeah. HWE: And he is a member of the Eritrean community here, in Logan, Utah. We are at the Logan Public Library, in the Temple Fork Room. And Berhane Debesai Abraha is translating into Tigrinya. And also present are Heidi Williams, recording, and Magen Olsen, doing photography. Can you – we’ve actually already gone over part of this – but can you give me your full name and your birth year? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: His birthday is January 1, 1975. [Speaking in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: And his name is Seltene Gebreselasie. HWE: Okay. And can you tell me about your family? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Okay, no problem; I can tell you about my family: I was born in east Africa, in Eritrea, and my father is Gebreselasie Gebretinsa. Okay. SGG: [Speaking in Tigrinya.] SGGI: And I was born in southern zone, it’s called Zoba Debub in Tigrinya, and the place he was born in Segeneiti – it’s a small village. [Speaking in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: It’s around 70 kilometers south of the capital city Asmara. Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 3 SGG: [Speaking in Tigrinya.] SGGI: I was born and raised in Segeneiti, and when my age reached 18, I went for National Service. SGG: [Speaking in Tigrinya.] SGGI: And I have been in the army for around 11 years, and life was not comfortable for me. And I just left the country and moved some other place. HWE: Do you have any brothers or sisters? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yes. [Speaking in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, he has one sister, and there are four boys. Aand there was another brother – [Speaking in Tigrinya to interviewee.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, he died in the war with Ethiopia before 1994 – the War of Liberation with Ethiopian’s army; he died in the struggle. HWE: And are you the only member of your family here, in the United States? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, he’s the only one. HWE: What languages do you speak? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 4 SGGI: He speaks Tigrinya. HWE: And what ethnic or religious community do you consider yourself to be a part of? HWEI: [Repeating question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He is a Christian; he is a follower of Eritrean Orthodox Church. HWE: Can you tell me a little bit about Eritrea? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [06:31] SGGI: Eritrea is a beautiful and comfortable country to live, but at this time because of the situation of the war and the political system, it’s not becoming favorable for the people to live in it. SGG: [Speaking in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, at this time Eritrea is kind of in a war, so everybody is in the army for ten years or more; so people cannot live their life, cannot support their family – so everybody is leaving to help themself and to improve their life and the life of their family. So that’s why I move out of the country: in search of a good life, and better life. HWE: How long did you live in Eritrea? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He was living in Eritrea starting the date of his birth, 1975, up to 2008. HWE: Can you tell me about the experience of leaving? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, I am married and I have two children; since I was in the army I cannot support them, I cannot do anything. And it was for a long time. So I want to improve my life and my family’s lives. And I leave Eritrea to the Sudan’s border; then from Sudan he went to Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 5 Libya, through the desert there. He crosses the Mediterranean to Malta; and from Malta he came to the United States. HWE: Did you spend any time in a camp while you were coming over? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He was in Malta from 2008, up to 2012, under the Refugee Commission. HWE: What was it like being with the Refugee Commission in Malta? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: So Malta’s refugee camp was kind of good, because you are free to move out. So he was not in the camp, he was working in Malta – [Speaking to interviewee in Tigrinya] SGG: [Speaking in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He was working with some farmers on the farm. So while he was a refugee, until he comes to the United States, he was working earning money, and he was supporting his family and himself. So they didn’t have anything to worry in Malta, because they could work and they were working. [10:57] HWE: So how did you – when you were working on a farm back in Eritrea. HWEI: Eritrea. HWE: Right? HWEI: [Repeating statement in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, I was born in a farming family, so I was raised with them – so I was working on a farm. [Speaking in Tigrinya to interviewee.] Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 6 HWE: Can you talk about the food or the medical care that you received when you were in the refugee camp in Malta? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Okay, in the refugee camp in Malta, for the first seven months we were under the Refugee Commission until they finish all our registration and until they check and double-check our information. So they were providing us food, the house was clean; they give us shelter, clothes and bed. But after seven months, when they finish the registration stuff, we were allowed to leave the camp and to work. So after that I was working and earning money myself, and I was living by myself. HWE: What kind of work did you do? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He was working with the local farmers. HWE: Okay. SGGI: So they got a big farm. He was working with them. HWE: How did you celebrate, like, holidays when you were living in the camp? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [14:06] SGGI: Okay, he say it was okay; Maltans, they have a lot of holidays – and we celebrate all holidays with them. And their biggest holiday is Christmas, and we were celebrating it with the people. SGG: [Speaking in Tigrinya.] SGGI: And their second holiday was Easter, and we are celebrating it with them. HWE: What kinds of things did you do for Christmas and Easter? HWEI: [Repeating question in Tigrinya.] Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 7 SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, he is saying he was so close with the family he was working with; they were kind of parents for me. And for the purpose of work he was rented in front, close to them; so most of the time, 25% of the time, he was celebrating the holiday with them. HWE: And how did that differ from how you celebrated it back in your home country? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: It’s kind of the same – they didn’t have any difference. HWE: Okay. So did you eat like any particular foods, or do anything particular? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He said in Malta they kind of live in extended family, so most of the time on holidays they don’t cook – they just go out all together. So since he was working with them, they always take him with them, and they go out and order food and get it; they don’t cook at all. HWE: Okay. And did you do anything else besides go out to eat? Did you go to church or anything like that? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [17:51] SGGI: Okay. In Malta they always go to church Saturday evening and Sunday morning. So the church was close to my apartment, and I kind of know their language at that time – so I used to go to their church. HWE: Now was it like an Orthodox church? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: No, Catholic. HWE: Okay. Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 8 SGGI: It was a Catholic church. HWE: So was that very different for you to go to a Catholic church, instead of Orthodox? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He said for him it doesn’t make any difference because in his home town, tthe place he grow up, the majority of the people are Catholics, and few are Orthodox; so he knows what Catholic is, and their culture. HWE: And in the camp – were there other people from Eritrea there? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: A lot. HWE: Was that the majority of the people there? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: The majority of the refugees were Somalians and people from West Africa. HWE: So did you end up celebrating at all with other people from your home country? Or did you mostly just go with the people you were working for? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, he was saying the refugee’s holidays – they are always the same, so he was celebrating it with the family he was working; but the public holidays – he was celebrating them with the people from Eritrea. HWE: What kinds of public holidays did you celebrate? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [21:39] Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 9 SGGI: He said the religious holidays are the same, so he would sometime celebrate them with the family he was working, but holidays like May 24th (that means it’s Eritrean Independence Day) and June 20 (it’s kind of Memorial Day – we call it the Martyrs’ Day) – he was celebrating it with the Eritreans. HWE: And how did you celebrate those holidays? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Most of the people – after they were allowed to leave the camp in war, they rented their own apartment, so they would celebrate the whole island. So when there is holidays they rent a big hall, and they prepare food and drinks, and they celebrate it together. HWE: And what kinds of food and drinks did you have? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: For the foods they buy meat and some of them they prepare ingera, and they just make food just like the way we do at home. And for the drink they just buy beer. HWE: So for the meat would you get like a whole animal? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: So they were buying beef from groceries. HWE: Okay. And did you get the beer from the grocery too? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [Laughs] SGGI: Yeah, that is the only way – you can buy it from groceries [laughs]. HWE: [Laughs] So how did Malta feel about the refugees coming in from Eritrea? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 10 SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [25:06] SGGI: Malta is a small island, its population is around half million, 500,000. So at first, when the refugees come to their area, they didn’t like it because it’s a small country, and there are a lot of refugees; but some time they get used to them, so they were friendly. Then after they get their refugee status, American Immigration System, they came to them and they give them asylum to the United States. HWE: So did you feel safe when you were there? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He says the country is so nice – it’s a free country, nobody talks to you, nobody even asks, nobody stops you. But when they first arrived in Malta, the people they don’t like them; sometimes even if they see another Eritrean or another refugee on the bus they just leave the whole bus. But after some time they get used to them Then they didn’t care anymore. HWE: And how did you learn about the U.S. refugee program? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: There was a refugee office over there, a refugee commission office, so he go over there to the office, and there are a lot of refugee places to go: Europe, Canada, America (or United States of America), and Australia. You choose which area you want to go, you just go and you settle with them and they take care of your process. HWE: Okay, so you can choose which country you want to go to? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [28:42] SGGI: They ask you question and if you want to go to Germany, France, Holland (or the Netherlands), Slovakia, and Hungary. I don’t want to go that places, so I tell them that I am not going to these places and they give me opportunity to go to the United States. HWE: And how did you apply to do that? Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 11 HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, at that time, the United States were taking a lot of Eritrean refugees, so as soon as I know the United States taking refugees, I went there and applied. And it took me around seven years to process everything. And I did my interview and they gave me the congratulation paper. That means they accepted him. And after that he came to the United States. HWE: So did someone in the office help you do that process, with all the paperwork and stuff? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, in their office they have a translator, a paid translator, so I go through the process. In Malta at the Immigration Office you cannot do it the way we do it in Africa, because in Africa you can bribe stuff like that, but in Malta you cannot do that; you have to go through all the process. They provide you translator, and they check everything, your background and other stuff. And when you pass everything they tell you when you come. When you finish your immigration process, then when they approve you, you just come to the United States. [31:34] HWE: And can you tell me a little bit about the journey to the United States? HWEI: You mean the airplane journey? HWE: Yeah, or how you go from Malta to the U.S.? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: [Speaking in Tigrinya to interviewee.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Okay. So when all their process is done, when their flight is scheduled to show up in Malta, the Refugee Commission – they took them to the airport; they put them in the airplanes and they showed them their chair and they told them, “Good luck, have a nice trip.” And from Malta, they fly to England for a transit. And in England some people were waiting for them – and the same thing: these people, they took them to the next Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 12 airplane, and they put them on the airplane (they same the thing), “Good luck, nice trip.” And after that, from England they landed in New York. HWE: And were there other Eritrean refugees going on the plane with you? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: There were four Eritreans and three Somalians on the plane. HWE: So you came to New York first. Did you fly, then, directly from New York to Salt Lake? Or did you spend time in another place in the U.S.? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [34:51] SGGI: Okay, when they come from Malta, their destination was not New York – it was Las Vegas, Nevada; but they stayed two days in New York because the weather was bad. Planes could not fly that day; so they stayed two days. Then after the weather got normal, they flew to Las Vegas, Nevada, for their final destination. And he stayed three months in Las Vegas. [Speaking in Tigrinya to interviewee.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] HWE: What time of year was it when you were flying? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: [Speaking in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: It was December 7, 2012. HWE: What were the first months like in Las Vegas? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 13 SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He said, Las Vegas is okay, but I didn’t like it – it’s too hot. But I stayed there for three months because he was going to English classes. After he finished the first three months of the class, then he moved to – [speaking Tigrinya to interviewee] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He moved to Logan. HWE: Where were you taking English classes in Las Vegas? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He was going to the Catholic school church, because this Catholic school – the Catholics, they got an organization for the refugees (they help with their flight and other stuff). So he was going there – it was for free. The first couple of months when you show up here, you need to get your social security, you have to get your ID (that is a kind of work permit). So I was waiting for the papers, but I decided to go to school instead of just sitting and wait for the papers. HWE: Were you there with other members of the Eritrean community? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [38:21] SGGI: When he come from Malta, he was with three other Eritreans (that means four of them), so they were all assigned to Las Vegas. So four of them, they give them one house with three bedrooms; so they were staying together for the first three months. And after three months he moved to Logan. HWE: And the others stayed in Las Vegas? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: They stayed there; they are still there. HWE: What else was Las Vegas like, besides too hot? Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 14 HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He said Las Vegas has a lot of big building, beautiful places: hotels, houses and other stuff – but it’s not like Utah; I didn’t like it. He can’t see a lot of stuff there. HWE: So you were in like a more rural area when you were in Eritrea? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, he was more in a rural area. Then he moved to a small town. HWE: How could your situation, when you first came to the United States, have been improved? I mean, in terms of like the help you received. HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [41:28] SGGI: When they first showed up – the United States government helps us a lot: they do whatever we need necessary. When we first show up they give us 1100 dollars each in our hand, but we don’t know anybody in this country, so they ask the Refugee Commission to rent house for them. So they help them to rent a house or apartment with their money. And everyone, they were given – [speaking in Tigrinya to interviewee] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: [Speaking in Tigrinya to interviewee.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: They were giving them 350 dollars every month. They were assigned to take 350 for eight months, but as soon as he moved in the third month he get 350 dollars every month for the first three months. And he came to Logan, so they cut the money they were giving him. HWE: Oh. So when you decided to move to another place they stopped giving you the money? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 15 SGGI: He said you can take it – they don’t stop it, but most of the time if you got a job, I don’t need any assistance. So thanks God when I moved here, I got a job, so I don’t want to take money anymore. HWE: Did you not have a job in Las Vegas? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: No. HWE: Okay. How long have you lived in Logan? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Two years. HWE: And where do you work? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: JBS Beef Company. SGGI: JBS Beef Company in Hyrum. HWE: What is like here? HWEI: You mean work, or? HWE: Work and just life in general in this area. HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [44:05] SGGI: He likes Utah – it’s a good place to live; I didn’t see any bad things here, so it’s a nice place to live here. HWE: Do you feel like you’re included in the Logan community? Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 16 HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: This is a good place to live. Most of the time we spend our time at work, so he cannot say anything about any other people; they cannot say they include me, they didn’t include me, but every time we are at work and at home. HWE: Do you live with other people here? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] HWE: Oh, you live on your own, right? You said that already. HWEI: [Repeating the statement in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, he got two roommates. HWE: Oh, okay. Okay, is there anything that you think would make you feel more at home here? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] HWEI: [Speaking to interviewee in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He said now I want to stay in America, so I am improving my life and I am looking for a better opportunities. We are waiting for this country to grow up and for us to get more opportunities. HWE: How is living here different than living back home? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [47:44] SGGI: Life in America is so expensive, rent is expensive; you cannot live if you don’t have work. And even though you are not going to live with anybody, everybody wants money. Back home, life is not expensive; so, for example, if you don’t have any apartment to Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 17 live, you can live with families, you can live with other people for some time; you can share with everybody. But here you have to work hard and pay a lot of money for life. HWE: How has it been renting an apartment or house? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He said when I compare with Malta – In Malta I used to have my own one bedroom apartment and that one bedroom includes everything: furniture, bed, kitchen utensils, refrigerator, and everything – and he was paying only 150 dollar for it (150 Euros for it). But here, rent is so expensive it’s just – cannot compare; it’s too expensive. HWE: And what is your landlord like? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [50:29] SGGI: Yeah, he is sole renter of the apartment they live in now – the landlord, we never sees him. There was a time when we used to go over their place, but now they got a drop box; we just write a money order or check, you just drop it. They don’t say anything; they don’t even come to the apartment. HWE: What would you like people in Logan to know about you and other members of your community here? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] HWEI: [Speaking to interviewee in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He is saying I would like to thank for, not only for Logan, but for the government of the United States, because they know we got in trouble, so they are helping us: they are bringing us over here, and they tried to find jobs and apartments for us. So I came to the United States in Las Vegas when I came here, and they’re still helping me. But the state of Utah, they accept a lot of refugees from Eritrea, and they try to help them with work, school, housing and other stuffs. So I appreciate the United States government for helping the Eritrean communities, and I want them to keep helping because there are still more people who needs extra help. Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 18 HWE: Would you go back to Eritrea if you were able to do that? HWEI: You mean to visit, or just go back entirely? HWE: Both, I guess. HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [54:07] SGGI: He is saying as long as the political situation is the same in Eritrea and the government stays there, I don’t want to go there and I cannot go there because this government is not treating us well. I have been in the army for 11 years. How can a person stay in the army for 11 years without payment. But if administration changed, I would like to go visit my families and see Eritrea; all the people of Eritrea are friendly and nice people. So I want to go there and see them; it has been too long since the time I was out of Eritrea. HWE: So you said earlier you had a wife and two kids in Eritrea? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, I have a wife and two kids. HWE: Are you still in communication with them? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, I call them. HWE: Do you send them money? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah. SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 19 SGGI: Yeah, I am the sole helper of the [???] community. HWE: Do they have any plans to come join you here? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, I applied for them to join me here, and the immigration system (or the Visa center), they approved my application – they even called them for interview, but my children, they are so small so I cannot take them out safely, so I don’t want to expose them in danger because they are too young. So they are entirely dependent, so when they grow up or when there is a possibility to take them out they will come and join him. HWE: How old are your children? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: The boy is ten and the girl is eight. HWE: What are you most proud of, in terms of having come here? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [57:42] SGGI: He said I am proud to be here because this country is a big country, and there is a lot of opportunities if you think hard and work hard you can do whatever you want to do: you can go to school – you can work and go to school. So the only thing you need to do here is just work hard and think hard, and you just do whatever you want to do; you can reach your dreams. HWE: What are your dreams for the future? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [High pitched feedback noise begins 58:29] SGGI: He saying when we come here I need to learn – so he was going to school [??] for four months; and now he is going to the English school. So he his plans now is to work in the daytime and go to school in the evening in order to improve his life. Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 20 HWE: What, specifically, would you like to have change in your life after you learn English? HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [High pitched feedback ends 59:45] [60:00] SGGI: Yeah, I never went to school when I was back home, so I didn’t have education background. So the reason I am going to school now is I don’t want to be illiterate, because I will try to read and do his stuff on his own. And when his children show up (or when they come to the United States) he just wants to help them [high pitched feedback noise begins 60:20 when they are in school and other stuff, because he needs to learn the language. If he don’t know the language, he cannot help his own. HWE: I think that might be about it; do you guys have anything you want to ask? [To other fieldworkers] No? Okay. Is there anything that we haven’t asked you that you think we should know? [to interviewee] HWEI: [Repeating the question in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] [end feedback noise 61:34, begins again at 61:47 and continues to end] [End part 1 of 2 – 62:05] [Part 2 of 2 – 00:01] [high pitched feedback noise from beginning] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: He saying when they come to the United States when they are in Malta, they gave them three days course how the United States government works and everything. And they told them, “If you guys are married, your family will follow you here between six to eight months. If you are not married, [end feedback noise at 00:37] and if you plan to come back some countries can get married and take them to the United States, if better if you become a citizenship, then it will be easier.” But his wife is in Ethiopia now, his children are in Eritrea, but his wife is in Ethiopia; she did an interview a year ago, but she is still waiting for the flight in Ethiopia. It has been more than two years since he has been here and it has been more than a year since she did the interview; she is just waiting for the flight. So there was some kind of misunderstanding. The way they tell them in Malta, and the way things are going here – they are not the same. HWE: Okay. I think this concludes our interview. Thanks for agreeing to meet with me. And we do have like a release form to put the interview into the Archives at USU, and also, I Cache Valley Refugee Oral History Project: Seltene Gebreselasie Gebretinsa Page 21 think, [high pitched feedback noise begins 01:40 and continues to end] for it to be used in our online exhibit, and also for– like we are going to have a community event on Thursday that I will tell you more about. HWEI: [Repeating the statement in Tigrinya.] SGG: [Responding in Tigrinya.] SGGI: Yeah, no problem; he will sign your paper.

I thought of things that were common to most Logan High School graduates and St. Anne's retreat immediately came to mind. It has always intrigued me because I had never heard a story before that explained in detail why it was such a scary place. I had heard rumors that nuns had been killed at the retreat, but I had always wondered about the details. I thought it was amazing that such a thing could happen in Logan Canyon because it was so out of the ordinary for a place like Cache Valley to have a murder take place. I have ~een up to St. Anne's a couple of times when I was in high school, and I knew that other people had often gone up there too. I had been scared each time I had gon~ and I was also very curious about where and why the stories had originated. I thought that there must have been some incident that had started the telling of the legends, and I was very curious to know if there was any truth to them. I had always thought that nuns were interesting and mysterious, and this added to my. desire to find out more about the legend of St. Anne's. As I learned about folklore, I began to notice that legends like the one about St. Anne's were not just found in Cache Valley, but allover the country. I realized that being scared was a favorite pastime of many people, and even such small towns as Mink Creek had someplace that was considered haunted. I found that people, especially high school kids, .~ would tell scary stories about a certain place, and then go there to get scared or carry out some tradition to bring a ghost out. The stories i • • • usually dealt with some kind of restless ghost haunting the place because of a sudde~ violent death. After I had chosen my topic, I began collecting by asking people if they knew any stories about St. Anne's Retreat. The easiest place to collect, although it was somewhat ironic, was at church on sunday. I attend a young adult L.D.S. ward, whose members are mostly people who have graduated from Logan High School. I would ask as many people as possible if they knew anything about St. Anne's, and then I would wtite their name down and call them later to get the full details. This was an easy way to go through a large number of people without much effort. I later collected by calling informants on the telephone, and then writing down what they were saying as quickly and as accurately as I could. I tried to use the words that the informant had used, but I edited the un­necessaJY words. I put down the idea of what the person told me, and used the more original words in their narration. Some of the informants had a hard time remembering the stories, and would tell me a few circumstances out of order. For these items (#2,11,15) I put the circumstances in a story form, however most of the items were told in story form. I classified all of the items as legends, and then I ~anged them according to theme. From each informant I collected their place of birth, age, education, religion, and ancestry. I asked each informant a variety of questions about the circustances in which they heard the story, and I also asked them what they thought of the story. These questions included such things as: whether or not they believed the story, if it scared them, if they had been to the retreat, why they thought that people told the legends, did they like the story, and why were nuns used in the stories • ii • • • The answers to these questions enabled me to better evaluate the p~Tpose of the legends and the reasons why people tell them. Most of the informants thought that reasons for telling the storieses were for fun, excitement, and thrills. While I was doing this project, I realized that people love the excitement that goes along with being scared, and they tell these stories in order to get that excitement. Some people believed that the legends originated because something really did happen at St. Anne's Retreat which spa'DkEid the telling of these stories. I do not know if a murder took place at St. Anne's, but I think that something mysterious might have happened at the retreat. Another reason for the stories could be the intriguing qualities that nuns have to an L.D.S. community like Logan. Few mormons understand nuns, and because of this, people might have begun to tell stories about them to express their fears of the unknown. They could have begun as warning stories to young people to keep them from going up the canyon late at night. This theory is ironic because telling such legend causes young people to become curious, and they desire to go to the retreat to find out if it realily is haunted. Most of the people I interviewed had been to the retreat. I felt the , comment made by informant if 8, "people tell stories about St. Anne's because it adds excitement to an otherwise normal place," was an ,',insightful comment about St. Anne's. It is an ordinary retreat, but because pe0ple have built up such a significant tradition of legends about it, it has become an infamous landmark to a large number of Cache Valley residents. I asked many people if they could tell me a story about St. Anne's, and most of them could not give me a detailed story about it, but they had heard of it, and they' knew that legends did exist about it. It iii • • • is amazing that so many people know that St. Anne's even exists. Because they do know, I think that a conclusion about human nature can be drawn. People like to talk about the infamous, tragic, mysterious, and sensational, otherwise the legend of St. Anne's would have died out long ag~ along with many of the other legend that exist allover the world. Many of the informants had heard the story at girl's camp where it is traditional to sit aroung the campfire telling ghost stories. Most of the other informants heard the story at a party where there was a large group of people. This shows that people like to talk about the supernatural. They like to think about those things that are out of the ordinary because they may feel that their own lives are very normal and relatively unexciting. Because they do not know what the lifestyle of a nun is like, they may thi nk that a nun has a more exciting life than they do, especially if she has a big black dog or a haunted swimming pool nearby. I think that people receive a superioTity; by talking about these kinds of things. First, they are eager to pity someone else other than themselves, and they are also relieved that such a terrible thing didn't happen to them. They can vicariously experience the fear that the legendary characters have felt when they visit the retreat, but they feel the security of having a group of friends with them. They also have the security of knowing that other people have gone up to the retreat before them and made it back altve. This gives the person a chance to feel superior to the figures in the legends, and may enable the person to feel better about themselves. The variations on the legend are so numerous that it is almost impossible to come up with an all inclusive story. The nuns are usually a significant part of the legends, and the black dogs, and empty swimming pool are often mentioned. These three it~s allow the storyteller to add iv • • • unusual details to their story that will make it more interesting. The purpose of these stories is significant because they do offer a c~~ce for the listener to escape from an ordinary life and think about the extraordinary. Because they are somewhat believable, the stories are exciting and fun to hear. They are an interesting and exciting way of entertaing people. v • • • Autobiographical Sketch I was born on July 25, 1964, in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. I grew up in Logan, Utah. Both of my parents were raised in Ogden, Utah. I have one older brother, and one older sister. Both -:of them are married, and I have been the only child living at home with my parents for about seven years. For many years my dad worked for Grand Teton National Park during the summer months as a naturalist. Our family enjoys hiking and camping together. We enjoy mountains and wilderness because we spent so much time togetether in the Tetons. We often sat around a campfire and talked until late at night. I don't remember hearing any ghost stories, but I do remember hearing jokes and bear stories. During the rest of the year my father teaches botany at USU. I have lived in Logan all of my life. I went to Hillcrest Elementary School, Logan Junior High School, and Logan Senior High School. I am now attending USU where I have changed my major from computer science to nursing. I was recently accepted into the WSC/USU nursing program. I will graduate in 1986 with an associate degree in nursing, and I hope to go on to get my bachelor's degree • I am an active member of the L.D.S. Church. My hobbies include sewing, crosstitch, photography, playing the piano, hiking, and skiing.

Robert thinks it is fun to be scared, and he likes to tell scary stories. * * * * * * * * * * * * Julian was the most beautiful lady in all of Logan. She was working at a bottling plant to get enough money to get married. One day as she was working, her beautiful long hair got caught in a machine and pulled her in, scarring and mangling her face. Her hand was cut off, and a hook was put in its' place. Her fiancee refused to marry her, and the towns-people made fun of her ugly features. Angered and discouraged, she changed her name to Hekeda and moved up the canyon to live. As she watched young, pretty couples corne up the canyon, she got a wonderful idea of revenge. She attacked the couples and scarred and mangled the girls. She couldn't be caught because she could run as fast as a deer, and she knew trails and shortcuts in the woods that no one else knew of. Sometimes, even today, you can still see her running in her white nightgown with her hook hand glistening in the moonlight. 1 • • • Item # 2 "The Jealous Nun" Informant Datal Darci Richardson Logan, Utah July, 1984 Darci Richardson, 19, was born in Wisconsin and raised in Logan, Utah.

She believes it was a Catholic Retreat, and she is curious to know if any of the story is true. She thinks that people go up to the retreat to showoff and to satisfy tpeir curiosity. * * * * * * * * * * * * The pregnant nuns were sent up to St. Annes. One of the nuns, named Hekeda was having an affair with the male caretaker. She became jealous when the other nuns talked to hi~ so she killed all of the nuns. The dogs barked when she murdered the nuns, and when you go up there now you can hear them barking and see their green eyes shining • 2 • • • Item II 3 & 4 "Drowning Babies" & "Disappearing Keys" Informant Data: Rosalie Ferrin Logan, Utah July, 1984 Rosalie Ferrin, 18, was born and raised in Logan, Utah, She is a freshman at U.S.U. majoring in communications.

She said they would tell scary stories and stay up all night because they were so scared. They liked to talk about the supernatural. She thought that if they talked about evil things long enough, something evil would happen to them. She believed that nuns were used in the story because they were mysterious, and nobody knew what the lifestyle of a nun was like. She didn't think it was to put down Catholics, but to play up the devil. She doesn't belive the storiesi but she and her girlfriends were very scared by them because they thought something evil could happen to them. * * * * * * * * * * * * St. Anne's was a place where nuns could go on a vacation, usually in the summer or winter. One winter a long time ago; some nuns' went up-, there to stay. It was a very s1!V~e winter with lots of snow so a man had to bring their supplies to them every week. He would take their fuel and food to them because it was the only way they could get it. One week the man couldn't get his wagon through, and he had to wait about two weeks before he could go up there again. He finally made it up to the retreat, and he found all the nuns had starved and frozen to death. He noticed that their bodies had been chewed by dogs. He was very wo~ried about this, and was just leaving when he saw one of the nuns, whose name was Hekeda. She began chasing him with her two dogs. He got away and told the towns-people what had happened. Hekeda still haunts the retreat with her dogs, and you can see her chasing you in your rearview mirror as you are leaving • It is believed she is of the devil. 4 • • • Item fI 6 "Hekeda and Her Dogs" Informant Data: Larry Hardman Logan, Utah July, 1984 Larry Hardman, 22, was born and raised in Logan, Utah.

One of the nun's name was Hekeda, and she took care of seven afghan hounds. In the early 1920's a guy went up there and killed and raped them all. All of the bodies were found except Hekeda's and the dog's. Every time someone goes up to St. Anne's to fix it up, they always hear dogs barking, and then see a lantern'on the mountain. You can see the figure of a woman walking her dogs up there at night. If you yell the name Hekeda three time~ a blue fog will cover your car, and you won't be able to come down out of the canyon • 5 • • • Item # 7 "Hook Lady" Informant Datal Angela Sue Neeley Logan, Utah July, 1984 Angela Sue Neeley, 20, was born and raised in Logan, Utah.

Contextual Data: She was at girl's camp in Logan Canyon sitting around a fire telling scary stories when one of the girls told about St. Anne's. She said that everyone got scared, especially since they were so close to the retreat. She was very scared, but she still wanted to go to the retreat for the adventure of it. She thinks being scared when you are in a big group is fun because you can all hold hands and scream. She thinks the stories are told for fun, for a reaction, and for scaring people. She has gone up there a couple of times with friends, and she kept watching for Hekeda all the way home. She was so scared one time, that she wet her pants. She doesn't believe the story is true, but it does scare her. She says she wants to believe the story for fun. * * * * * * * * * * * * The most beautiful woman in logan was in an accident while she was working, and she got caught in some machinery. Her hand was cut off and her face was marred. She had to we-ar a hook on her hand, and she lives up at St. Annes. She gets revenge on beautiful girls.

He is majoring in Pre-med at U.S.U. where he is currently a junior. His ancestry is Finnish and English, and he is an active member of the L.D.S. Church. His hobbies include sports, and horseback riding. Contextual Datal Steve heard the first item from a friend, who told him the story, when they went up to St. Anne's Retreat one day. He later asked his parents if the story was true, and they told him it was, but they were on vacation when it happened. He didn't think the story was scary, but he thought it was amusing in a gory sort of way. He doesn't believe the story is true, but he thinks it sounds possible, however it is hard for him to beleive that something like that would happen in Utah without everybody knowing about it. The second item was told to him by his brother when they were taking dates up there. The dates had heard about St. Anne's, but they had never seen it. The dates wanted to see the place and hear about it. This story scared Steve because it was more modern, but he didn't believe it. Steve thinks that people tell stories about St. Anne's because it adds excitement to an otherwise normal place. He believes that nuns are used because the retreat was owned by the Catholic Curch. He doesn't like to get scared, but he does like adventure. * * * * * * * * * * * * This actually happened sometime in the early sixties. St. Anne's was a vacation area, and there were about twelve or thirteen nuns up there when one of them went bezerk. She just went bonkers. She had been training these four Black Labs, which she had gotten from Hekeda, to kill. She kept them in a woodshed on the mountainside, and one night she let the dogs loose. She got a lantern and a hatchet, and she and her dogs slaughtered all of the nuns. Time passed and nothing was discovered until someone made a delivery to the retreat. The person who found the dead nuns went back to Logan and got a bunch of people together. This mob of people went up to St. Anne'~ and they found the crazy nnn, and they decided to hang her. They gave her the chance to speak her last words, and she said, "I will forever haunt this place." She still haunts St. Anne's today. 7 • • • Item it 9 "Scratched Raint Job" Steve Jensen Logan, Utah July, 1984 About eight years ago, four high school guys drove up to St. Anne's. They were just goofing around, and they thought all of the stories about St. Anne's were just a joke. -They had a ouija board with them, and they started saying stuff like, "St. Anne, come and get us. Come here St. Anne." All of a sudden they heard dogs barking, but they couldn't see them. This scared the~ so they got in their car and locked the doors. They were just sitting in the car when the heard scratching noises allover their car, but they couldn't see anything. They started to drive away, and they looked out their back window. They saw a woman standing there with four Black Labrador dogs, and she had a lantern in one hand and a hatchet in her other hand. When they got down out of the canyon, they found that the car was all scratched up, and the guy who owned it had to pay $200.00 to get a new paint job. *Notes Informant and contextual data are found on the previous page. 8 • • • Item if 10 "Barking Dogs" Informant Datal Lucy Hardman Logan, Utah July, 1984 Lucy Hardman, 24, was born and raised in Logan, Utah.

Contextual Datal Lucy told me this story as a personal experience which happened to her when she was in high school. She believes the legend of St. Anne's, and she believes that there really were dogs chasing her and her friends. I don't know if she was teasing me when she told me that she believed the story or not. She loves to be scared,and she thinks that is why people tell scary stories. She doesn't believe that nun stories are told only in Cache Valley, but allover the world. * * * * * * * * * * * * Lucy and her friend were driving around the canyon one fall night when it was really nice and warm, and they decided to go to St. Anne's. There were three guys who wanted to go, and three girls who didn't want to go. Since the boys were driving, they went. They parked the car by the highway, and began walking up the dirt road. On the way, one of the guys said "Do you know what happened up here?", and he proceeded to tell story of the nuns. '~he nuns used to come up here in the wintertime and stay. One spring the nuns didn't come back. The townspeople went up to investigate, and they found the bodies of the nuns floating in the swimming pool, because they had been raped and murdered. They also found mother superior's black dogs chained up and starved to death in a shack." The guy telling the story suggested that they go look in the swimming pool. l"'hile they were looking at it, one of the guys yelled, "I'm scared," and ran to the car as fast as he could.
