about TO mount their horses a volunteer
who was an acolyte in the church and a
regular soldier, both in civilians dress,
came upon the party. In the encounter
Poepeol lslono was killed by the acolyte,
who In turn was killed, being literally cut
to pieces.
This occurred ON tho evening Of Feb.
"a. As there was price on Gnrcia's head
Of $4,000 from the government and about
$25, 600 from the sugar planters in the vi
cinity, there was quite an incentive in
claiming that the dead bandit was Garcia
Parties who have seen the pictures of the
bandit takon and published after his death
assert that IL is not the likeness Of Garcia.
Whom Garcia's wife was asked ny the sol
diers TO go and identify the body Of her
husband she attired herself in black and
went with them. When the party alightod
at the station, she put her handkerchief to
her face and pretended TO be sobblng.
She then told them that she knew the
body was that Of her husband, and there
was no use 10 60 and look at it. She did
this to deceive the soldiers. II is stated
that Garcia still lives in the vicinity Of the
place whore he was reported TO have been
killed This report comes direct from Seba
Mocha hv "a gentleman who was there on
last Thursday. Garcia is much smaller
