Braces Before And After Overbite

Antonio Gil Núñez Mamerto

By Claudio Puntel.

not so much now, but before they spread their legend, caused find print gauchos caravans promesantes with flaming red flags tacuaras and manifestations of the cult of the gaucho Antonio Gil. This is the story of a man who, rather than the miracles attributed to him, is revered for his life miserable, his sense of justice, rebelliousness and wrongful death in his youth.

Soldier Corrientes, followed the path of San Martín. People
Madariaga, the headband and dagger, head pays to resist. "
(Julián Zini - Antonio Gil)

As Cruz, decided not to be the executioner of his brothers. As Artigas, hat under his head to the power of the state had set a price. As Manuel Dorrego, was killed because the ruling class feared that the people loved and respected. As Altamirano and Olegario Alvarez Aparicio, distributed among the oppressed the product of their exploits. As the executor of Che, the man who slew stunned with alcohol needed to comply with the order of execution. Mamerto Antonio Gil Núñez, born in August 1847 in the Paiubre (area of \u200b\u200bMercedes, Corrientes) became a myth because in his short life he suffered the same setbacks and injustices that most of his time gauchos.

"of joy could not take
and I took the lady to comesario ..."
(Mario Millán Medina - My ponchillo colorado)

was the son of a poor family in rural peasantry. His father, José Gil de la Cuadra was a laborer in the field and knocked him to inherit the same office. In this walking when he met the daughter of wealthy landowners, Estrella Diaz, who was also sought by the Commissioner of the people. As usual, the man who wore uniforms and held the monopoly of the trebuchet competition took as an insult and he had to leave Antonio Gil payment. There

wandered through the rooms looking for some conchabo, a task that would enable it to bring something to the stomach. More than once there had to flee to the shot and hide in the marshes of the estuaries, to sniff the approach of the authority.

In 1865, this derision of the Triple Alliance invaded Paraguay of Francisco Solano López. Argentine militia recruited from Corrientes, Misiones and Entre Rios all males over 16 years, including Antonio Mamerto was Gil.

"on the gray horizon of death

Paraguay finally ended the horror
and grows a sky of peace."
(Marily Morales Segovia - The life and liberty)

After the War Against Paraguay, Antonio Gil had no more than 23 years. Must have thought when it comes back, bleached by their actions in battle near the Colonel Velazquez and Juan de Madariaga, Paiubre find the "heaven of peace" that I needed and gave him breath. But in December 1870 Corrientes liberals and conservationists fought the battles of Cañada de Snuff and Ifrane, there also ran a lot of blood.

Zalazar Colonel, Army veteran Mitre in the Triple Alliance began a levy of men to serve in the liberal forces (light blue), under the penalty of execution by beheading in cases of insubordination. Antonio Gil, who was a true "red" rebelled against the recruitment and eloped with the Blood Ramiro Pardo and Francisco Goncalves. He was arrested while his companions, eventually gained fame as rustlers.

"was very ugly shoe to Chamigo

and more authority to make blanket waving
another color."
(Millan Medina - Mi ponchillo colorado)

The warrant required that he be brought to Goya to be tried and convicted. Colonel Zalazar Velazquez filed for clemency for her soldier who was in Paraguay. Zalazar agreed as a condition presenting a petition signed by 20 "notables." Apparently, they were collected the 20 signatures. Anyway, on 8 January 1868, a few miles of Mercedes, was tied upside down in the fork of a locust and a drunken sergeant proceeded to slaughter. It is possible that the game has received an order of clemency, but decided to apply the "law of escape" so common at that time (and today).

The gaucho Antonio Gil agreed to become a turncoat. He preferred the death penalty rather than serve the liberal oligarchy of his day. He refused to spill the blood of their brothers in the village.

"His glorious crusade was
m ittee iron tip, spear
Guarani."
(Porfirio Zappa - Punta Fierro)

Others will respond by the existence of miracles attributed to him. In the hardships of the people, the injustices, the lack of response by the state to the needs there are sufficient reasons to move the requests in his sanctuary. "People know very well, but clings to the miracle" and that, while likely to remain so, as they say Teresa Parodi and Peteco Carabajal, "who must answer is looking the other way." In the case of Antonio Gil, the remarkable thing is that hundreds of thousands of people place their hope not in a saint who taught about extraterrestrial life and unlikely spirituality, but a standard gaucho who paid with blood for their fidelity to their class.
