This being the place where the hired guns of Wack Willie walker are laid to rest, far from their precious southern cottonfields, far from their dream of recreating a slaveholding confederate republic by enslaving Nicaragua. They all died ignonimously. They got their just deserts. this is also the place where Bartolme De Las Casas, famous for his historical anthropological tome The Chronicles of New Spain, wrote his letter to the Spanish Crown decrying the murdurous excesses of the conquest.
