Aldine Simon
(Nauliareq)
Born: Hooper Bay, October 18, 1909

I have only two sisters, Cleo Johnson and Alice Napoleon. Pete Kopanuk is my only brother still alive. My oldest brother is deceased. Aldine SimonI got married in 1926 to Mike Simon. We lived in mud houses and heated the inside with wood. Our windows were made with ice in winter. But when the weather was calm we used seal gut for a window. We had many different types of native food. We used to travel by dog team in the winter time, and we melted ice for water. We used to go to fall camp at Kaunuqinaq and Old Chevak, and we traveled there by skin boats with other people. There used to be a lot of people at Hooper Bay. They had two large mud qaygiqs where the men used to eat and work. The women took them their food there. In the qaygiqs they also held Eskimo dances. They used to wear bird skin parkas and kuspaks. And they wore piluguks instead of shoes. They used seal oil lamps to light their houses with. And they used to put snow along the porches for wind protection.

I was in school but I did not attend much because I always had to go to fish camp. The old days were a lot of fun. We were poor and we used to try to get money by selling seal skins. We often had no ammunition and sometimes even had to make it out of stones.

We never used to see any planes at all. The first planethat came to Hooper Bay was in 1929. The village was located by the river then and the rest of the place was a grave yard. I first saw the plane coming from the mountains. People were really scared when they saw it coming. It landed in front of the village.
