A posse was at once organized of which Col. S.O. Houghton, formerly a member of Stevenson's Pioneer Regiment and, as I write, a leading member of the Los Angeles bar, was one. They surprised the bandits, captured Murrieta's horse and equipment, including even his hat; but he himself escaped up the mountain side. It was his last escape. In his next encounter with the law he was killed. This time he took refuge at the Mission Carmel and was cared for by the priest there for a time -- just how long is not known; but during this time the young padre painted a portrait of the famous bandito just as he appeared when he sought sanctuary in the ancient edifice of the Franciscans. A red sash is wound turban-like around his head and a manga of the same color does duty as a cloak. The manga, in South America called a poncho, is a mantle with edges embroidered and a hole in the center through which the head is thrust. It makes a comfortable and serviceable horseman's cloak."; Accompanying paper reads [part 2 of 2]: "A year or two after the death of Joaquin this priest sent the picture to a very Christian old Catholic lady, wife of a wealthy American at Los Angeles, accompanied by a letter explaining the circumstances under which the portrait was painted and giving information he
