I must clarify that Uncle Kurt had not married, so he lived alone in the Hall, assisted by a
               marriage  of  old  and  loyal  Indians,  who  lived  in  a  small  contiguous  house.  Apart  from  the
               aforementioned couple never dwelled there less than ten peons –to attend vines and and the
               small factory of sweetmeats arrope– but these didn’t occupy the gully that was thirty metres
               away from the Hall and were not worthy of confidence.


                      Uncle Kurt called desperate to the old majordomo, named José Tobalaba, hitting the
               window of his room.

                      –Pepe, Pepe.

                      –Yes Don Cerino? –replied the oldman with promptitude.

                      –Come quickly Pepe. A disgrace has occurred –Screamed Kurt.


                      Even though he just metioned the oldman, five minutes later appeared Pepe and his wife
               because by tone of the call, they supposed that something grave was happening. The old Juana
               crossed herself constantly while Uncle Kurt and Pepe, moved my exanimate body to a sofa of
               the livingroom because the bedrooms were in the superior floor.

                      I lost a few blood through a profound gash at the height of the occiput, but the most
               impressive was undoubtedly, the manner in which the dogs destroyed my forearms. Uncle Kurt
               left the old couple to clean the wounds and take care of me and he went in search of the Ampej
               Palacios.

                      He removed a brand-new jeep Toyota from the garage –acquired in times of the «sweet
               money» – and he left rapidly, noticing when leaving the presence of the Ford a few metres from
               the gate.

                      The hour was untimely to seek for any medic, but for the Ampej Palacios.

                      This personage ficticious but he deserved to be, is a world-famous Indian medic for his
               dominion  on  the  physiotherapy.  Old  already  in  those  years,  he  stills  attend  in  his  humble
               consulting room without being bothered by anyone, because his prestige is so big as the fortune
               that he amassed thanks to the gifts that generous and wealthy patients went depositing in his
               hands. The Ampej Palacios, has achieved to make walk men and women paralyzed for years, he
               has  achieved  to  move  necks  as  tense  as  an  obelisk  and  he  has  straightened  many  goner
               vertebral columns by orthopesdits form the whole world, that woud result difficult to believe if
               is not for the signature book to prove it.


                      These books are the second touristic cause of Santa María, because there are signs and
               notes of the people, form all around the world, who reached to the Ampej Palacios searching for
