Reprisal

Navahos raided the tiny community of San Pablo about 1900 A.D., and kidnapped two children.  (My great Uncle Ben said that you could still see the foundation of the old fort when he was a boy, and of course arrow heads were everywhere. Everyone would run in there when the Indians raided.  He said the walls were circular.)  The townspeople pursued them into New Mexico and took back the children.  They then took two Indian children.  Guadalupe and her sister Incarnacion were actually part of the raiding party that had taken the Hispanic children.  This is how Guadalupe came into my great-great-grandfather Manuel's life - and this wild child later would serve lunch to the president of the United States.
