So they decided on a resort
and pooled their resources.
With their savings, which ag
gregated quite a lot over four
years, their severance pay and
contributions from their faml

$25,000 for a farm lite of 22
acres which was poorly develop,

VILLAGE PRIEST HELD SECRET
Hidden Burial Place Found
Of Last Ruler of Aztecs
Ixcateopan, Mexico (U.I!) Archaeologista have discovered the
remains of Cuauhtemoc, the last emperor of the Aztecs, under the
Church of Nuestra Senora Santa Maria de la Asuncion here.
Cuauhtemoc, hanged by the Spaniards in 1S2S, ruled the Aztecs
for a brief period after Hernan Cortes arrived here in 1519. He
succeeded Moctezuma (Montezu--
ma), the Aztec emperor Cortes
defeated to conquer New Spain,
Cuauhtemoc had lain in the
tiny vault under the main altar
of the Church of Our Lady, Holy
Mary of the Assumption, for
more than four centuries.
hunting and they get paid for
it.
The company said it was shut
ting down in line with a union
contract agreement which
makes the opening day of the
small game season In Pennsyl
vania a paid holiday.
The Spanish conquerors left
Cuauhetmoc's body hanging to
a crude gallows somewhere in
southeastern Mexico, probably
in what is now Chiapas state,
for the buzzards and Jungle ani
mals to pick clean.
The Indians, however, rescued
it, after almost two weeks on
the gallows, and secretly re-
buried their emperor here.
Most Spanish historians thought
Cuauhtemoc'! body was in the
southeastern part of the coun
try. They had not even been
able to make up their minds as
to whether it was in Campeche,
Tabasco or Chiapas states.
Buried here probably in 1529
by the ancestors of Salvador
Rodriguez Juarez, whose family
has lived here at least since
early in the 16th century, the
location of the final resting place
of the Aztec emperor never
might have been known out
side of the Juarez family had not
old Salvador gone to the village
priest with his secret.
He learned it only about six
years ago when Micaela Laguna
de Arroyo, dying of old age,
confided it to him. Early this
year, Salvador went to Father
David Salgado Estrada, pastor of
the village church. Father Es
trada advised Salvador to tell it
to the whole world.
At first the report was greeted
with incredulity but when Sal
vador produced centuries-old
manuscripts written by Father
Motolinia, one of the first and
greatest Mexican historians,
20th century scientists flocked
to Ixcateopan.
They examined the manu
scripts and pronounced them
authentic. At length, "it being
the 27th day of September, at
13 hours and 50 minutes, (the
remains )of Rey e S. Coatemo II
(King and Lord Cuauhtemoc)
were found here."
Numerous Mexican archaeol
ogists, most prominent of whom
is Eulalia Guzman, have pro
nounced the remains genuine.
Before the find is officially
recognized, however, a group of
scientists appointed by the gov
ernment will have to pass on it.
