Wayne Eben was interviewed on November 10, 1992 by James Nageak at the University of Alaska Fairbanks for the Alaska Native Studies Department's Elders in Residence course. In this interview, Wayne talks about life at the roadhouse, helping dog team mail carriers, caring for travelers and their dog teams at the roadhouse, seeing his first airplane, hauling freight by dog team, and fishing to feed their dog team. He also mentions how during the 1918 flu epidemic, outside dog teams would be prevented from entering a village as a way to protect against the spread of illness. This recording has been edited from the original.
