202 SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 23 girl. Because first my mother was with another husband. My mother was married to him probably three years. He got a mistress. He married [that] other old woman. She was barren. Then he went to grow corn in the lowlands for a year. He fooled [his wife]. [He and his mistress] married each other. My mother divorced him. She was divorced one year. He was little .... I had a little younger brother, this big. My little younger brother died. He got sick. I was still a girl, of course. Just that .... I had come as a maid. I was here as a maid, here. It was probably my sixth, seventh, eighth .... [I was] ten years [old]—around there. It was around forty-five or fifty years ago when Obregon passed by, it seems. The very last time we were at home. The plane came. It was around [the time] when I came as a maid—when my mother took me. The plane appeared. Ooh, we were scared. "Who knows what kind of buzzard that is roaring. Listen to the way it roars. We're going to die from it. It's going to kill us!" said my mother. We were lying face down, now, on the ground. We had hidden ourselves in the shadow of a tree, because she said it would kill us. That's what we thought. Yes! "Why are you scared, mother? Don't be afraid!" I told my mother. I was so, ... who knows what my heart was like. I went and stood up in the front yard, I did! I was loo—king up. Yes! [It was] here in San Cristobal, the second time the plane came. The police were kneeling in the park shooting at it. Since I was there on the first day that it arrived there. It passed over there. It just went on. It went like this. It came to San Cristobal. The one that was fired at. [Could it have been Pineda's plane?] No, it was Obregon's. I think it was Obregon's, indeed! Since ... no ... it was Obregon's. Do you know how [I know]? Because I know somebody ... ah, what was his name, Ah, I don't know what his name was. He was a captain or something, but I don't know what his name was. I can't remember it, but he was in Pineda's party. I don't know if it was Villalobos. I don't know. I don't know if it was Old Alberto [Pineda] himself or .... Because I think there were three leaders. Three, but yes! What I was telling you about was that his wife had taken refuge in my master's house. Secretly. That's why that plane was Obregon's. That's right. I know very well because I was a maid myself. Because the awful Ladina had taken refuge there. "They've come. They've come looking for your husband. He's being searched for. <strong>Lo</strong>ok how he's being searched for by plane!" she was told. "Eh, yes, you're right!" she said.

they find him? Tabasco ... I don't know where he had gone to—if it was Simojovel or where. Yes! They didn't find him now. It was just the woman, herself, who was taking refuge from house to house. Because there was a room of their house, like this one—the same width as this one. Because that master of mine sold cane liquor. They had made a bed for her there. It looked as if there was just a [front] door where you would come in, like this. She ate there. She drank there. She just came out when she went to shit. She came out when she went to pee. She would go back in. Nobody knew there was anybody there. They arrived searching for her. They arrived looking for her. It looked as if there was nothing, [no] room there, since the house looked as if it had a solid wall. She would go in as if there was a door here. How would we know that it wasn't a one-room house, if we didn't know your house, it seems? How would we know? The thing is, I saw myself that her sleeping place was made. Because my master had hidden eightyfour jugs of old vintage [cane liquor]. Because he was a recruiter [for the fincas]. Yes! Manuel Coello Ochoa was the old man's name. Those jugs were packed in tight there. "Please, take a good look for me, fix the jugs ca—refully! Stack them all carefully on top where you have stacked them carefully. Put them in there one by one," I was told. "So clear a place for that lady's bed!" I was told. You see how I saw it. That's why that plane was Obregon's plane. It was his plane. [How many years do you think you were there with that old recruiter?] The recruite—r! [Were you with him for long?] I was there for a long time. It was eight months. Eight months. I wasn't there [very] long [really]. The place where I stayed a long time was at the house of Jose H. Ruis. Yes,- indeed! I was there nine years. Nine years and nine months. Then I left. I went to get married. At that other old man's house, just eight months because he was so mean. He beat me so. [Was that where you first came to in San Cristobal?] No! The very first [place] I came to in San Cristobal was the house of ... she's still alive. The first time I came, I came when I was four years old. The house of Miss Carmen Fonseca. There in Santa Lucia. I was four years old. My mother came. She came one year. The trouble with my mother was that her mistress had sons. She got a baby. Then she left. It was my younger brother. He isn't here. He went to Nayarit. [He went far away!] Far! That's why my mother left, because it seems [her belly] wasn't empty anymore. It had something in it when she went. That's why my mother left. Then me, I stayed. So now I became a maid for TONIK NIBAK 203 Tavasko mu jna7 bu to la me taj bat 7une, mi Simo Jobel mi bu to. Ji7!
