In Other Words
"He was a little guy, real small. And no matter where we went he went with us ‘cause he was young. He went to school and he wasn’t working at the time when we was playing quite a bit of our baseball. But he went with us to a lot of our baseball games and he was always there gathering up the bats and gathering up the gloves and this and that and the other. And he was a busy little dude" (Harding-Milburn, "The Chatham All-Stars: An Interview with Kingsley Terrell," Polyphony 7, (1985): 111-120).
