Gregorio Cortez Ramón Delgado Jacinto Treviño Site Map	Jacinto Treviño   Los Palomares de Ojinaga <W91>             Espanol           English Ya con ésta van tres veces que se ha visto lo bonito; la primera fue en McAllen, en Brownsville y en San Benito.   This makes three times that something beatiful has been seen, this first time was in McAllen, then in Brownsville, later in San Benito.   En la cantina de Bekar se agarraron a balazos: por dondequiera volaban botellas hechas pedazos.   In Baker's cantina there was a gunfight: and pieces of broken glass were flying everywhere. Esa cantina de Bekar al momento quedó sola; nomás Jacinto Treviño de carabina y pistola.   Baker's cantina was quiet all of a sudden, just Jacinto Treviño was standing with his rifle and his pistol. -Entrenle rinches cobardes, el pleito no es con un niño; querían conocer a su padre, ¡yo soy Jacinto Treviño!- "Come on in you cowardly Rangers, you're not messing around with a kid, if you want to know who your daddy is, it is I, Jacinto Treviño."   Decía Jacinto Treviño que se arrastraba de risa: -A mí los rinches me hicieron los puños de la camisa.-   Jacinto Treviño said while trying to keep from laughing: "All that you Rangers are good for is to sew the cuffs on my shirt." Decía el sherife mayor como era americano: -¡Ay que Jacinto tan hombre, No niega ser mexicano!- The head sheriff said, since he was an american: "What a brave man Jacinto is, you can see that he's a Mexican!"    Ya con ésta me despido aquí en presencia de todos, se me quieren conocer los espero allá en Matamoros. Now with that, I say farewell here in the presence of everyone: If you want to come and find me, I'm waiting for you there in Matamoros.
