Home Invasion at my Grandparents' Home
by Maria Louisa Franco Madrid
One evening in March 1938, seven months after the death of my grandfather Dolores García, just after the family finished evening prayers, my uncle Asención went out as usual to check on the animal pens. He was surprised by six armed men who marched him back into the house. They demanded money from my grandmother Luisa. She told them they had no money in the house, but they could take whatever else of value was in the house. They ransacked the house looking for things to take unnecessarily damaging things. Among other things, they cut the leather straps off an expensive leather trunk.
