Which detail best develops the character of Demetrio Macias in the cultural setting?
adapted from The Underdogs
by Mariano Azuela
Everything was still swathed in shadows as Demetrio Macias began his descent to the bottom of the ravine. Between rocks striped with huge eroded
racks, and a squarely cut wall, with the river flowing below, a narrow ledge along the steep incline served as a mountaln trail.
*Theyll surely find me now," he mused. "It's a good thing they know nothing about the trails and paths up here.
But if they got someone from
Moyahua to guide them .* He left the thought unfinished. *All the men from Limon or Santa Rosa or the other nearby ranches are on our side: they
wouldn't try to trail us. That cacique who's chased and run me ragged over these hills, is at Mohayua now; he'd give his eyeteeth to capture me."
AI dawn, he approached the pit of the canyon. Here, he lay
the rocks and fell asleep.
