- Summary: (This is a continuation of the recording SM-012a. The speaker speaks in Spanish. A man behind him can be heard). As they never did anything to him he does not believe in witches. What he relates is the truth, but as these things happened when he was very small, he cannot judge them. There were books and that sort of trash (?) that they said they used to read and that caused the badness. In a certain house there were many disgraces, and they said that someone with a book was getting at them. One time a shepherd saw a cloud and suddenly half the flock went one way and the other half the other way. The one half had bad births and the other half was fine. In Abaurrea Alta they said in one house they had a book that someone read and that some sheep ran a great distance in one night without being seen by anyone. So they decided to burn the book and they threw it in the stove. When a certain man died the misfortunes stopped occuring in several houses.
