An account recounts a May pilgrimage to a shrine on the Mountain of the Cross near Presidio, Texas, across the Rio Grande from Ojinaga. The story blends legend of Padre Uban, a cave devil, and miracles, with the chapel Capilla Cruz atop the peak and local devotion guiding cross worship and candle offerings.
