«Nadie sabe cómo o cuándo ocurrió. Lo cierto es que, en una de las galopadas de los Villaveces en las proximidades de las oficinas, del almacén y las bodegas, muy cerca de los últimos jinetes, estallaron tacos de dinamita. Con enorme dificultad los agresores lograban sofrenar las cabalgaduras encabritadas y nerviosas».
