172 boy told me, my companion, my neighbor's child. "If he comes back, what if he kills us?" I said, myself. "So that's the way awful girls always are! They're so scared. Ach, go on saying it! Keep on gabbing!" he said. He was walking off himself with one frying pan. Now I really didn't want to take the other frying pan, myself. "Shall I just take the piece of liver to eat?" I said to myself. Eh, I guess I'll take it," I said to myself. I went to take it, but I was looking around behind me like this. I was scared. Yes! But the owner was gone! He was in one of those advance groups that was destroyed here at the Ventana. They all died. Not one was left. The [other soldiers] came back. They went to bury them. There were only three wounded ones [left] who went. Their arms were wounded [right] here. Their thighs were wounded. They came back. [It was those Obregonists?] Yes, yes, Obregonists, of course. The three of them. The other one was wounded in the lung, I think. I don't remember very well anymore. They came back. They went on. As for the sheep, they were hung up. They were all skinned. They were hanging up. The women's food was there, their tortillas. Who knows where they fled to. We never saw how they fled. They were herded off to San Cristobal. They went, herded to San Cristobal. [The women] were brought back to San Cristobal. [The Obregonists] probably still didn't give up or perhaps more Obregon soldiers were sent back. I don't know. When the time came, Pineda arrived here [in Zinacantan Center]. That was the first time I saw them. The second time I saw them—me, I was already here [in San Cristobal] as a maid. That's the first [thing] I saw, after they came back like that, came here from San Cristobal. Then, as for us, [the next day] we opened [the pen] for those sheep. I don't know if it was probably, ah, it was probably ten o'clock when [the fighting] broke out. We opened [the pen] for the sheep, since they were hungry. Don't you see it was the corn season, like now. Ripe corn fields. We opened it up for the sheep. The sheep came. The sheep arrived where we were shepherding. "Why, why did we take our chickens back with us? Our mothers will eat them. We should have eaten them here by ourselves!" said my companion. Yes! "Let's go, let's go look at the fire over there [to see] if there is any food left there," he said. Ooh, a pot was bu—bbling away there. A pot of chicken. It was in—oh, I don't know what they call the thing SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 23 jun krem jchi7il xch'amal jlak'-na. "7A ti xtal mi xismilotik 7une?" xkut i vo7one.

for mountain chili—it was a can this big. It was cooking in that. It was good food. Yes! "Ah, did you find anything where you looked?" I asked the boy. "Come here! <strong>Lo</strong>ok here! See how good the food is here! Let's eat!" he told me. "Where will you get the tortillas for it?" "What? The tortillas are stacked here!" he said. At the foot of a fence. That's why they weren't seen. So we went to open the pen for those sheep. We went to eat. We found our meal there. We ate. Whatever we couldn't finish eating we took home. [You were lucky!] Yes, we were lucky! We ate. We probably ate a lot of chicken at the foot of the fence. We opened [the pen] for those sheep. We ate chicken, because we discovered a pot bubbling. There weren't many tortillas. There were maybe just a few stacked there by the upper fence. Yes! As for the tortillas—"Forget it, we won't eat tortillas," we said. We ate the chicken. We ate. We drank its broth. I still took a few pieces home. We divided them up. Four pieces for me, four pieces for my companion. We each ate two pieces. We took the [rest] home. We went to stick the sheep in [their pen]. I was ca—rrying [the meat] in my little old can. My companion, the boy, wrapped his up in his tortilla. [His house] was as far away as [from here to] the corner. Yes! The next day, it was dese—rted. The governor's soldiers were go—ne now. "That's probably how it will be. Old Pineda was able to take [the town]," we said. No trouble. None. Eh, the next thing we knew, the government came in force. Who knows how many soldiers came again. Eh, but they had no mercy. They wouldn't care if you hadn't anything. We didn't have many tortillas at that time. We had there just this tiny bit of little tortillas among us. Qui—ckly ... I think there was some watermelon squash flavored with chili. We had cut it in chunks to eat. So they scooped out the watermelon squash. They took their tortillas and ate. It didn't matter if you died of hunger, yourself! [The Obregonists?] The Obregonists. The governor's soldiers. [It was on the next day?] No, four days later. Yes! They probably found a lot of sheep still hanging up. They roasted them. They ate them, and so on. They surely were satisfied with that! If they hadn't found them hanging there still, if there weren't someone guarding them at the courthouse, who knows! They were distracted then. They ate there. More sheep-stealing, chicken-thieving, and so on, TONIK NIBAK 173 lakal 7o, ja7 lek ve7el. "7Ana mi k'usi xi 7ata bu 7avil?" xkut i krem 7une.
