of several volleys of musketry. About
300 soldiers, infantry and cavalry,
were in fact out, having surrounded
my nouse. coon my son appeared,
and, under command of Captain Cerezo
Martinez, in most brutal and vulgar
terms, the captain ordered all in the
house to go outside. The soldiers
rushed in and dragged me out by the
collar. My wife, with her baby," was
taken out, a rifle being pointed at her
breast. A negro servant, who was
badly frightened, tried to hide. Ee
was pulled to the front, and beiore
my eyes a soldier struck him a heavy
blow with his machette, cutting him
deep in the head, leaving a pool of
blood On the fliXrr. An nrrir was than

because we were Americans and they

the Cnited State. They ordered me
to San Miguel without waiting
