When Martineau returned to Pacheco a month later, the town was a shocking sight. Large pieces of beef and pork lay rotting in the houses and yards and the homes were in a temble condition. There were books, many choice ones, scattered around--many partly bumed--and rag carpet balls stning al1 over town that the thnfty housewives had sewn together to weave into carpets. The fences and gates were used for firewood and wherever the colonists had buned dishes or valuables in the gardens, expecting to retum in a few days or weeks, these had been dug up. Thousands of dollars worth of property of the 'hated gringos' had been wantonly destroyed. The family photographs, the pnceless keepsakes so loved and carefully presewed, the small family library of wellchosen books, the diaries and personal histones--al1 of these were gone and could never be replaced, and a pnce could scarcely be put on them. These were the sacrifices required of the fleeing coloni~ts.'~
