description

Summary

Broadside shows bust portrait of Francisco Villa and two small skulls. It also shows two skeletons in Asian dress. The borders on this broadside include ivy, roses, holly, and on the four corners each has a devil extending its tail in front of it. The verses in this text convey the malady that Francisco Villa's soul is in after his death. The tone of this piece is not in sympathy with Villa. Chinese, other nationalities, and people from various professions are said to be in pursuit of Villa in order to inflict a vengeance on him.
