This article focuses on the question how we should use the oral resource in relation to the document. In some kind of oral history research oral resource seems to be efficiently combined with the document to construct more holistic representation of the matter or the person we concern. However, such a usage has been unfamiliar with the author who is accustomed to use both of them in separate. Here the author considers the experience of interviewing 90 years old veteran teacher who had been on concern during the historical research on the home visiting teachers (called fukushi kyoin literally means "welfare teacher") and their activities in 1940s-50s attempting especially to improve the educational problems of students from Buraku area in P prefecture, Japan. We investigate the transcript of the interview and conclude that the existence of document on the informant evidently helps to understand the context of his life story, especially to understand the sequential relation of each topic, but it does not contribute to the in-depth interpretation of the life story. Instead for the interpretation of oral resource nothing is more needed than the ethnographic information of the interview itself, like how it is narrated for whom in what kind of power relations. This experience indicates that researchers must be more and more conscious on the qualitative difference between oral resource and document and combinational use must be done deliberately.
