Motley Caravan Heads Toward Refuge After March Toward Marfa
A battered Huerta force of 3,300 soldiers and generals plus 1,667 women and many children arrived near Marfa Texas after a grueling 67 mile trek over a wind swept route. They will be interned at Fort Bliss as war prisoners amid a fragile evacuation by US cavalry and guards. The column, led by General Salvador Mercado, included Generals Cantro Adune Landa Orphal and Homero, with scattered camps along the way supplying limited rations. The march featured women in hardship, a newborn child, and a notable rooster perched on a burro, symbolizing a surreal exodus that stretched into miles of dust and distance.
