Apolinaria was not adopted by the Carrillos she filled, in some measure, the place of a servant, while, at the same time, she was regarded as one of the family in all domestic relations, and became a companion, in many respects, to Senora Carrillo, who was an invalid.
The next morning, an hour before the sun was up, Father Amestoy and the messenger, each with a horse from which they had dismounted, stood at Apolinaria's door. In a moment Apolinaria came out of the little adobe house which had been her abode since leaving the Carrillos, bearing a small bundle in her arms.
"Come often, my boy, the home of the Carrillos is always open to a friend of Mi Primavera," said Don Ygnacio. They rode in silence for many miles, the automobile humming over the smooth, deserted boulevards almost as bright as day in the moonlight. Then Consuello spoke. "I always hate to leave them there they seem so lonely," she said. "You must leave them?" John asked in surprise.
"Do you know what he is planning for me now?" she asked, and then, before he attempted to reply, she added, "He plans to restore the wealth of the Carrillos." Her eyes sparkled as she spoke and she looked to him for his approval. "Oil has been struck within a mile or so of our ranch," she explained.

But at last, believing she had definitely decided that it concerned the future welfare of her soul, she betook herself to her spiritual adviser, Father Pujol, and laid her thought before him.
Carrillos, Del Valles, Sepulvedas, Arguellos, Avilas, Ortegas, Estradas, Martinez, Aguirres and Dominguez are represented by chiefs and ladies. Beakers of mission vintages are drained in honor of the brave and fair. When the sun slopes toward the hills, the leaders escort the happy couple to the Presidio. The Commandante and his bride begin their path in life.
