History of Spain. First Carlist War (1833-1840). By order of the Carlist general Ramón Cabrera, on 27 February 1836, the wife of Colonel Fontiveros (María Roque) and three other women, Cinta Foz, Francisca Urquizu and Mariana Guardia, were shot in an orchard in Valderrobres (province of Teruel, Aragon), merely because they belonged to liberal families. These executions, along with many others ordered by Cabrera, were in reprisal for the execution of his mother a few days earlier. Illustration by J. Alaminos. Chromolithography.
