DescriptionThere was a man who had four children, all boys. The three oldest ones went out for an adventure one by one; but all of these were killed. The youngest brother went to follow the foot tracks of his brothers and found those of the people who had killed them; finally, the others went and exterminated all of them.

Recorded 02/20/--between 1966 & 1964.


Note: It is Diego's idea that the narrator is Basaliso, but the depositors were unable to reach a definite conclusion about this. The box of the tape does not identify Basaliso as a narrator. Liz thinks that both sides are backwards and that Basaliso is actually Raúl.
