Artalejo receives word that an indio has escaped from a chain gang at the jail. Going to the jail, he finds a prisoner guarding the Door, and the Alcalde of the prison absent. It developes the indio escaped while ostensibly fetching water. Apparently Pedro Lizondo (Alcalde de la carcel) allowed prisoners to fetch food and water and run errands in general without escort or shackles. As an example to future Alcaldes de carcel, Pedro Lizondo (espanol) is ordered to replace the escaped Indian in the chain gang. (P. Hayes) (1977)
