232 SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 23 cloth—cloth for his pants, cloth for his shirt. They came [to San Cristobal] to buy it. He we—nt to work again. Then he wa.i told properly. "If you will join my group, then you can work! But if you don't join my group—if you side with the governor, it seems—then you won't have any corn. I'll take all your corn," said [the Villista]. Ye—s! Then the poor guy obeyed. The second time he came back, nothing had been taken from him. He had his things. He even came back with meat. He brought back salted ribs—a strip of meat ten arm spans long. But the meat was this thick! Ten arm spans. Then one leg of beef. Then probably one strip of liver an arm span's length. A strip, an arm span, of lungs, as we say. Something like that, since there was a meter or so of heart. That's what he brought back with the leg of beef. And one side of ribs he brought back. And two iguanas, one armadillo. What's the name of the awful animal [whose meat] came in strips, too? Deer, [no] peccary! Bu—t there was a burlap bag of meat. The meat arrived. You eat the meat—there were no tortillas! "What happened? Is it because you took his side?" I asked. "What if they come to our house, if they come to arrest you?" Because there was a man, named Maltil Pixkal. Yes! As for Maltil Pixkal he thought the same way. He stole together with Villa. That Old Pancho was strolling about by his house. They ate there. They slaughtered cattle, and so on. [Old Maltil] even came to sell jerked meat in his house. Now he had a store. He sold jerked meat in his house. Since the cattle that they cut into strips of meat was all stolen. He sold jerked meat in his house. He sold it for a peso, for five pesos—however much of his meat was bought. Now, Maltil Pixkal got into trouble. Obregon's soldiers went and saw him. Then Obregon's soldiers—it was discovered that he stole in Acala, and in, I don't know what it's called on this side of Acala. He got into trouble, since he stole from a hacienda there. They came to arrest him. He was arrested and jailed in Chiapa. He left Chiapa and arrived in Zinacantan. He left Zinacantan and was brought trussed up, by the soldiers. [Ah, that? . . .] That Maltil Pixkal. Ye—s! Then Maltil Pixkal—you see what happened—he left Zinacantan Center. And since I came to San Cristobal myself, I was returning [home] like when I return now. It used to be on foot. There was a tree this thick there by the road. A rope was already strung up. You see, they made him manta smokete 7ital smanik 7un. 7Icha7-ba—t 7o ta 7abtel noxtok 7un, ja7 taj solel lek xa 7albat 7une.

kneel. He was kneeling, kneeling like this on the ground, like this. He was kneeling on his hat. The rope was knotted with a knot here. "Will you tell or not?" he was asked. The poor guy was je—rked up by the rope. "You will make your declaration, as God commands, or who cares what the fuck happens!" said the soldiers. Then he was jerked up by the rope. "Ow," said the poor man. He was probably told that three times. We were standing, then, watching. "You—what do you want?" the soldiers asked us. "No—thing, nothing at all, sir!" we said. "All right, keep going!" was the command. "All right," we said. We continued on. We probably went pretty far. We stopped to watch. "Will they kill him now, My <strong>Lo</strong>rd?" we said to ourselves. Then, no, they took down the rope. And his neckerchief was worn by a soldier. His woolen tunic was worn now by a soldier. I think that's all. He had a leather shoulder bag. A soldier had it slung over his shoulder. No more trouble. That's how he came. We watched him come. He came. They picked up their things. He came to the jail here in San Cristobal. He never confessed. He never said that he was of the same mind as Villa—that they stole together. He didn't tell a word of his thoughts. And he never confessed it. He won out like that. He left the jail. He came out ten years later, I think. It was hardly after one year! After ten years [the gates] were opened for him. He went to Zinacantan Center. He wasn't very guilty now. No! There weren't any witnesses left. "No, it wasn't true, I never stole," he said. Yes! "All right, go on, then!" he was told. He was freed. He left. He arrived at his first wife's house. He had a daughter by his first wife. Paxku7 was his wife's name. His daughter was named Maruch. Now, the man had older sisters and younger sisters. He arrived at the house of his first cousin— Petul, Petul Buro. You know him? He is a close relative [of theirs]. He had the same father and mother as my husband's mother. Her name was Mai Buro. He went there to report. "I've come out of jail now. They say I'm not guilty anymore, since they said my guilt ended quickly," he said. He passed by to tell them. "At least you weren't killed!" "No!" he said. "I guess I'll go look. I don't know if you were so kind as to look after my corn field for me." It was around—I don't know what month that he was freed. Ye—s! "But never mind, the corn field was looked after, of course!" TONIK NIBAK 233 H7 skakanoj i spixol 7une. Va7i 7un, xi Ii7 p'okol sp'ok i ch'ojon Ii7 to 7une.
