Yo' jes' take dat an' - jes' take dat an' lay it dere an' cut it out lak, kinda lak dat track is. An' yo' go out dere lak yo's firs' start turnin' [spading] yore yard - de firs' track - an' yo' jes' dig a hole right dere an' spread dat air [that there] rag lak dat bottom of dere track. Yo' know, jes' as de track is, an' put de dirt back on it. Why he won' stay dere no mo'. Ah pract'ly [practically] know purtty neah de truth of dat. (You simply take that dishrag and cut it out the shape of his foot, and you just bury this track where it just turns away from your house. Either track?) No, yo' git de first one, eithah track, but let it be firs' track he stepped in when he starts in [into the house or onto the property]. (Then you bury that cloth right in that same track. That is to make him stay away?) Yes.
