[Victoriano Huerta, Dec. 23, 1854 - Jan. 13, 1916]
Postcard image of Victoriano Huerta, wearing the eye glasses and hat, during his 1915 arrest in El Paso, Texas. Victoriano Huerta, Dec. 23, 1854 - Jan. 13, 1916. Victoriano Huerta was the dictatorial President of Mexico from February 18, 1913 - July 15, 1914. General Victoriano Huerta also served as Chief of Army Staff under the Presidency of Francisco Madero. Huerta would later have Francisco Madero assassinated by his order. Walter H. Horne writes the caption for this postcard [reverse side] as: "Gen. Huerta is being taken to County Jail. El Paso, Texas. July 2/1915. Looks as though the old boy was in bad!" Huerta was arrested in El Paso and was sent to Fort Bliss to await his trial for fomenting rebellion in Mexico. Huerta would never see a trial as he would die from liver complications - most likely due to liver cirrhosis - before his trial ever began. Huerta is buried at Evergreen Cemetery, on Alameda Street, in El Paso, Texas. None of the other men are identified.
