but that he remembers that the Black Juan
Luis having asked him if it was true
that there had been several meetings in
his Hut, he responded that yes, and asking him
about the uprising that the Blacks
had planned, he answered that the
Black Cesar had proposed it, and that despite
the fact that the said Juan Luise resisted
getting involved in it, he had consented
in the end due to the force of Cesar’s
persuasion, to whom he himself, and others had
said, that how could it be achieved
when they did not have weapons for it, to
which he responded laughing and saying
don’t be stupid, that of course they had
pigs and hens they could sell them and
buy rifles, powder, and bullets as well
