| Description | The gentleman will tell us about two different men, one called Gallego who lived in the village Vi 'Putul, and one called García who lived in the town of Chajul. Don Gaspar will explain to us what position Don Gallego had, where he lived, what he did when they went to look for him in his house, what the cause of his death was, and in what place he was when they killed him. We will also learn that Don García proclaimed himself mayor of the town, which was the reason that he sent his elders to kill Don Gallego, and what they did to Don Garcia when they learned of his act, and in what town he was when he died. |
