Interviewer:

Did you steal the gardening equipment from your employer? You were the blacksmith's apprentice and had access to the shop.

Matthew Farmer:

I would never (umm) steal from him. Mr. Anthony has been so kind to help me learn his trade. I am very grateful to him. In addition, I left the shop early on the day of the crime. (looks away) Besides, (hesitant laugh) why would I need to steal farming equipment when my father, Michael Farmer, purchased a grubbing hoe a week before the crime? Besides, Mr. Ansley, the other blacksmith in town, would love nothing more than to steal from Mr. Anthony. He wants to put our shop out of business. I (umm) saw him right outside of the shop the night the tools were stolen!

Interviewer:

I thought you said you left the shop early that night.

Is this a primary or secondary source? It is about a crime that happened and this is the interview.
