Refugees from Vera Cruz forced to endure mob terror in Cordoba
Sixty three Medina colony members from Oaxaca arrive refugees in the city. They recount two days in Cordoba barracks under guard, hungry and forced to sleep on floors after paying 60 pesos to local guards. A railroad official and others describe looting, mob violence, and beating encounters as crowds demanded blood. Guards eventually shielded them and moved the group to safety, with long train journeys and harsh conditions persisting through the ordeal.
