Return to index of stories...
Ice Fishing -
Music with nat sound as Arnie loads up sled. Arnie: Normally I would use a hand auger but the ice has gotten so thick that we'll just kind of cheat and use this. It's a lot quicker, This is just a basket with my fishing equipment. And some bait. And I'll take a chair to sit on. And we'll take some traps. We'll see if we can catch anything with those. Lock shot of pick up truck as Arnie unloads stuff we dissolve through the sequence.
music up then under to hear sound of Arnie dragging sled onto ice. Willem VO Arnie Kenneson has been ice fishing for more than 50 years. Arnie VO I started when I was a little kid. I remember my dad taking me. I grew up in northern New Hampshire Low angle wide shot looking out onto lake as Arnie comes by camera dragging sled. And continues on away from camera. Super Wheelright Pond
Music trailing out as we hear sync sound of drilling holes in the ice. wide and tight shots of drilling holes.
Arnie lots of times you'll drill maybe 10 holes 15 holes whatever, And move from one to the other. Maybe 10 minutes later you'll go back and visit one of those holes and all of the sudden bingo you're in the fish… Fish definitely turn on at different times. And I don't think anybody knows what the reason is. Arnie sitting in chair at a hole jigging as he talks. Good place for name super. We also can use some cutaway close ups on the pole as he jigs.
Nat sound / maybe bring some music back up. scenic shots of the lake with Arnie fishing various
Arnie - fishing for the black crappies will at certain times and you talk to different individuals everybody has there own ideas. But it seems to work out that about 9 or 10 o'clock in the morning they will kind of move up from the bottom. Say you had 30 feet of water they move up to half way to the surface. And they call it suspending And many times you'll be fishing like this on the bottom and what I'll generally do is take a few cranks up and raise it up aways and fish a little and raise it up some more. And sometimes truely half way up you'll hit fish Arnie on camera
Arnie Pretty good fish… It's a bass! Willem VO Although solitary ice fishing can be very relaxing and satisfying, it also make a great family activity. It's a way for lots of people to get out on the water without a boat. And everyone can participate. Low angle shot as he catches a bass and takes it off of hook and throws it back in to hole wide shot panning Newfound Lake with workshop particpants on the ice. Super Newfound Lake
Nat sound Various shots of workshop folks doing things to prepare for fishing setting up traps, digging holes, scooping out holes

Willem VO these folks are learning how to ice fish in a "Let's Go Fishing" workshop sponsored by the New Hampshire Fish & Game Department. More shots of workshoppers doing stuff. D
Mark Beauchesne - We actually probably have about 24 feet of water underneath us right now. That would be my guess. And we have a sandy bottom and we've got a beach area here. So, we're looking at maybe some rainbow habitat, lake trout, cusk. Mark standing with group around him on the ice.,
Mark - Within the classroom they learn about safety and proper equipment to wear. The baits choices and of course a lot about fish ID and where we're going to find these fish. We talk about winter pond ecology - what's happening underneath the ice. Alot of people take a look at the frozen surface and say the fish what - do they take a nap do they go to sleep do they hibernate? They don't understand that there's still life going on down there. We talk about why it's happening and why the water's a little bit warmer as you go deeper. And turnover in the fall and things like that. Mark On Cam standing on the ice.
Nat sounds of workshoppers as they are setting up and tending holes. various shots of workshop folks
Mark - you want to hold onto it really good and as soon as it breaks through let off the throttle and pull it straight up. You'll be surprised at how much ice is here; Mark with group demonstrating how to dig hole with power auger.
Mark - This year alone we've had 400 people through the ice fisning programs. The average is about 600. That's a lot of people going out and learning about ice fishing. Mark on Cam standing on the ice.
Music? Nat sound of wind blowing Scenic shot of lake with swing blowing in foreground. And Arnie way off in the background.
Arnie - I think generally overall it is better in the summer. But we don't have that option up here in the winter. You know, we have the ice and we have to cope with it. Arnie in his chair jigging as he talks.
Arnie: Again with the technology in clothing materials and insulation. You know it used to be that down was definitely the warmest and it probably is right up there on top. But now some of the synthetic mateials and insulation are just - it's unbelievable. I mean you can, I could dress up and lay down right here on the ice and go to sleep and be perfectly comfortable.

Nat sound & music scenic shot of lake & ice fishing

Arnie - for a lot of us it's something to do in the winter. I used to ski all the time and I've given that up.And now I just look forward to a half way decent day and. Sure it's always a little sweeter when the fish bite. But there's many days when they don't and you still have a good day.I havn't heard a phone ring out here this morning. Arnie on the ice cu face.
Arnie Oops lost another one. cover shots of Anrnie fishing then back to him tighter when he looses fish. Then back to scenic closing shot.

Return to index of stories...
I ALWAYS WANTED A CHILDREN'S STORY THAT WOULD INTRIGUE THEM TO GET TO COME TO THE WARNER HOUSE.
I'VE BEEN A GUIDE THERE FOR MANY YEARS, AND I WAS ON THE BOARD.
BUT MOSTLY I THOUGHT WOULD IT BE ABOUT THE WHITE FAMILIES WHO LIVED THERE, BECAUSE WE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT BLACK FAMILIES.
ONE DAY I WAS UP IN THE COUPE LA ON TOP OF THE WARNER HOUSE, TRYING TO GET SOME IDEAS FOR THIS STORY AND ON THE CIRCULAR BENCH THERE WAS IN MY IMAGINATION A SERVANT CHILD AND SHE WAS BLACK.
AND THAT GOT ME GOING, AND THINKING.
HOW WOULD SHE FIT INTO THE STORY?
AND THEN SHE BECAME THE STORY, REALLY AND SHE SEND ME ON A TRAIL OF REALLY GETING TO KNOW BLACK HISTORY AS MUCH AS I COULD FOR PORTSMOUTH AND FOR NEW ENGLAND.
SO THIS LITTLE GIRL, TALK ABOUT HER AND WHAT SHE'S LIKE, AND HOW SHE'S THE SAME OR DIFFERENT FROM ANY OTHER LITTLE GIRL.
WELL, LIKE ANY LITTLE GIRL SHE HAD GREAT DREAMS, AS AN ALMOST 10-YEAR-OLD SHE HAD THE IDEA THAT WHEN HER FATHER COMES BACK FOR HER HE'S BEEN GONE FOR ABOUT FOUR YEARS, THAT THE FAMILIES SUSPECT HE'S PROBABLY BEEN CAPTURED AND SOLD BACK INTO SLAVERY, BUT ANYWAY, SHE THINKS THAT AS SOON AS PAPA COMES BACK SHE'S GOING TO HAVE PRETTY CLOTHES, SHE'S GOING TO LIVE IN A WONDERFUL HOUSE, AND SHE JUST HAS THESE GREAT DREAMS AS ANY CHILD WOULD.
BUT SADLY, SHE HAS TO LEARN FROM HER GRANDMOTHER THAT EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE FREE, HER LIFE IS PROBABLY NOT GOING TO BE WHAT SHE THINKS IT WILL BE.
SO VERY EARLY ON IN THE BOOK, MATTIE AND HER GRANDMOTHER, HER GREAT UNCLE AND HER FATHER ALL GET THEIR FREEDOM PAPERS.
CAN YOU TALK A LITTLE ABOUT THAT, AND CAN YOU, DEBBIE, TALK A LITTLE ABOUT A REALLY WONDERFUL ILLUSTRATION OF THAT MOMENT.
WELL, I THINK THE FATHER OF COURSE WANTED EVERYTHING DONE VERY PROPER, LEGALLY.
HE WAS WORRIED THAT WHEN YOU GOT YOUR SLAVES DOCUMENTED, THAT IF YOU HAD TO GO FROM PLACE TO PLACE, YOU MUST CARRY THAT DOCUMENT WITH YOU.
SO THAT YOU WERE SAFE, THEORETICALLY.
SO THEY WENT UP TO THE TOWN HALL, AND HAD ALL THEIR PAPERS SIGNED AND THE BOOK MAKES QUITE A SECTION, ALMOST CHAPTER OF THAT EVENT THE DAY THEY GO FOR THEIR FREEDOM PAPERS.
AND THE GRANDMOTHER OF COURSE IS VERY SKEPTICAL, SHE KEEPS SAYING I WON'T BELIEVE IT UNTIL I HAVE THE PAPER IN MY HAND, PAUSE SHE'S STILL WORRIED THAT IT MAY NOT BE WHAT SHE THINKS.
CAN YOU TALK A LITTLE ABOUT THE ILLUSTRATION?
I REALLY WANTED TO CONVEY THE FACT THAT MATTIE WAS LITTLE, SHE DIDN'T REALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT ALL OF THIS WOULD MEAN, AND I LOVE THE, THE PEN WITH THE FEATHER ON HER NOSE.
I ALSO WANTED TO SHOW THE, MR. WARREN'S INDIFFERENCE SO, TO SPEAK, IN THAT HIS BACK IS TURNED WHILE PETER, THE FATHER'S FACE IS VERY HAPPY AND ELATED THAT THIS IS HAPPENING.
I THINK PETER SOMEHOW KNEW THAT HE, THAT THIS WOULD REALLY CHANGE HIS LIFE.
MATTIE COULDN'T KNOW THAT AT THAT POINT.
WHAT'S VERY STRIKING ABOUT THE BOOK IS THE SMALL DETAILS ABOUT WHAT LIFE IS REALLY LIKE FOR THESE FORMER SLAVES IN THE HOUSE.
AND IF YOU COULD READ THAT SEGMENT, THAT WOULD BE GREAT.
LET ME JUST FINE IT HERE REAL QUICK.
MATTIE WAS SUDDENLY STRUCK BY HOW OLD HER UNCLE LOOKED, HIS DARK BROWN FACE HAD A GRAYISH TING, AND HE APPEARED MORE TIRED THAN SHE'D EVER SEEN HIM, SHE WANTED TO PUSH A CHAIR TOWARD HIM, BUT SHE KNEW HE'D NEVER SIT DOWN IN MR. WARREN'S PRESENCE, NONE OF US EVER DID.
THAT SEEMS SO VIKING, IT'S A SMALL DETAIL, BUT WHAT DOES IT SAY ABOUT THEIR STATION IN LIFE, EVEN AS THEY GROW OLDER?
UH-HUH.
WELL, I THINK WHEN YOU GROW UP WITH, YOU ASSUME YOU HAVE A CERTAIN PLACE IN THE HOUSEHOLD, OF COURSE AS A CHILD YOU DON'T ALWAYS QUESTION THESEALWAYS QUE THINGS, YOU JUST SORT OF ACCEPT WHAT IS.
I WANT TO TALK A LITTLE ABOUT, THERE'S ONE ILLUSTRATION IN THE KITCHEN WITH MATTIE AND HER GREAT UNCLE AND HER GRANDMOTHER, WHICH I THINK SHOWS THE WEAR AND TEAR THAT NED HAS GONE THROUGH.
WELL, NED HAS ON A DISCARDED COAT FROM HIS OWNER, AND I'VE PUT A PATCH ON THE SLEEVE JUST TO SORT OF CONVEY THAT.
NED HAD A VERY SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP WITH MATTIE.
SO I WANTED TO CONVEY HIS, THE WAY HE PUT HIS HAND ON HER SHOULDER, JUST THERE'S A LOOK IN HIS EYE THAT JUST SAYS I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
AND HIS WHOLE LIFE HAS BEEN SLAVERY, SO IT'S NOT LIKE, AND I THINK HE ALMOST FEARS OR FEELS THAT MATTIE'S LIFE WILL BE TOO.
BUT THERE'S JUST NO. YOU KNOW.
BUT I ALSO WANTED TO CONVEY IN THAT DRAWING THE SURROUNDINGS OF THAT TIME THAT, WHAT BESS HAD TO WORK WITH, TO COOK THESE MEALS.
SOMETIMES HUGE BANQUET TYPE MEALS FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE HOUSE.
AND WHAT THE SHE HAVE TO WORK WITH?
AND SHE WASN'T YOUNG EITHER, TO BE DOING THIS.
HOW DID YOU FIND OUT ABOUT WHAT LIFE WAS REALLY LIKE 200 YEARS AGO, ABOUT PEOPLE BRINGING THEIR SERVANTS AND RELATIVES AND STAYING FOR SOME PERIODS, AND JUST THE SOCIAL MORES OF THE TIME.
THE ATHENAEUM HAS A GREAT COLLECTION OF 18th AND 19th CENTURY DOCUMENTS SO YOU CAN GET CLOSE IN ON THE INVENTORY OF PEOPLE'S PROPERTIES AND WE HAVE A LARGE SECTION ON THE DECORATIVE ARTS, THE FURNISHINGS, THE FABRICS AND SO FORTH.
SO THAT I WOULD READ WIDELY INTO THAT AND BE ABLE TO PULL THOSE DETAILS INTO THE STORY.
WHAT ABOUT THE LANGUAGE, DID YOU HAVE TO CHANGE THE LANGUAGE AT ALL?
OH, NO.
SOME PEOPLE HAVE SAID TO ME, WELL, THEY DIDN'T SOUND LIKE BLACK PEOPLE.
I SAID FOR PETES SAKE, THEY LEARNED TO SPEAK ENGLISH FROM ENGLISH MEN IN PORTSMOUTH, HOW ELSE WOULD THEY SPEAK.
WHEN YOU BEGAN WRITING THE BOOK OR AFTER I WAS PUBLISHED DID YOU RUN INTO ANY CRITICISM?
YOU'RE TWO WHITE WOMEN AND YOU'RE WRITING THIS BOOK ABOUT A YOUNG BLACK GIRL 200 YEARS AGO.
WAS THERE ANY QUESTION OF COULD YOU REALLY WRITE THIS IN AN AUTHENTIC WAY?
THAT WAS THE FUNNY THING AND EVERYBODY THOUGHT ABOUT IT.
AT ONE POINT I THOUGHT, GEE, DO I KNOW ENOUGH, YOU KNOW, SHOULDN'T A PLAQUE PERSON BE WRITING THIS, BECAUSE THEY WOULD BE MORE FAMILIAR, THEORETICALLY, WITH BLACK HISTORY.
BUT YOU KNOW AFTER A WHILE, I REALIZED THAT IT'S NOT SKIN COLOR, THAT'S THE BARRIER, IT'S IGNORANCE.
AND I THINK ONCE YOU GOT TO UNDERSTAND MORE ABOUT THE HEART OF THESE PEOPLE, AT LEAST IN MY IMAGINATION AND FROM WHAT LITTLE I COULD LEARN, SKIN COLOR DIDN'T MATTER.
YOU HAD WORKED AT THE WARNER HOUSE.
WHEN YOU FIRST DECIDED TO DO THIS BOOK, WHAT WAS THEIR RESPONSE?
WERE THEY AFRAID THAT PERHAPS THIS MIGHT BE SOME NEGATIVE PUBLICITY?
NO, I DON'T THINK SO.
I THINK GENERALLY SPEAKING THERE WAS GREAT ENTHUSIASM FOR THE BOOK.
THERE'S ALWAYS A CONCERN, I THINK, TO PRESENT A HOUSE IN A GOOD LIGHT.
AND SOMETIMES PEOPLE THINK, OH, WELL, MAYBE THAT'S A SUBJECT WE SHOULDN'T TALK ABOUT.
BUT OTHERS FEEL, AND MOST FEEL THAT ALL OF THE HOUSE'S HISTORY IS IMPORTANT, EVERY PART OF IT, EVERY PERSON ASSOCIATED WITH IT IS IMPORTANT.
SO I THINK MODERN DAY HISTORIANS WANT TO TELL THE COMPLETE STORY.
WHEN YOU TELL PEOPLE YOU'VE WRITTEN A BOOK ABOUT SLAVERY IN NEW ENGLAND, WHAT IS THEIR FIRST RESPONSE ABOUT THAT?
WELL MOSTLY THEY SAY WERE THERE SLAVES IN NEW ENGLAND?
THEY'RE SORT OF SURPRISED.
BECAUSE, OH, SO MANY TIMES AS I WAS TAKING PEOPLE THROUGH THE WARNER HOUSE AND I WOULD MENTION, WELL, THERE IS INFORMATION ABOUT THERE BEING SLAVES IN THE HOUSE, AND THEY'D SAY, THERE WERE SLAVES IN NEW ENGLAND?
OH, YES, THEY WERE VERY MUCH SO, MANY SLAVES IN THE AREA.
IT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT OVER THE YEARS HAS SORT OF BEEN ALLOWED TO SLIDE AWAY, ALMOST A POLITICAL APPROACH IF YOU WILL THAT THAT WAS A SOUTHERN PROBLEM, THAT NEW ENGLAND DIDN'T HAVE THAT PROBLEM, AND OF COURSE IT WASN'T SO.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO DO A BOOK LIKE THIS NOW?
ISN'T THIS, YOU KNOW, SHOULDN'T WE MOVE ON?
I DON'T THINK THAT ANY PIECE OF HISTORY SHOULD BE IGNORED.
I THINK CHILDREN NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT WENT ON.
BECAUSE WHAT WENT ON SOMETIMES KEEPS ONGOING INTO THE PRESENT TIME.
AND SO MY THOUGHT WAS WITH THIS LITTLE STORY, IT'S A GENERAL WAY OF INTRODUCING CHILDREN TO THE TOPIC OF SLAVERY IN NEW ENGLAND, IF THROUGH, AND HOPEFULLY IT WILL GET SOME QUESTIONS GOING, A LITTLE DISCUSSION, PERHAPS THEY WOULD LOOK AT ONE ANOTHER'S FACES, IN A DIFFERENT WAY.
SO THAT IT'S JUST HOPEFULLY OUT OF THIS IT WILL INTRODUCE CHILDREN TO THIS TOPIC AND GET THEM THINKING ABOUT IT.
…and of course it wasn't so. 37:06
WHY DO THIS BOOK NOW? SHOULDN'T WE MOVE ON?
37:11 I don't think there's any piece of history that should be ignored…and get them thinking about it 37:54
