The Life and Times of via Vergona

via almost never left the safety of his property. As promised, he stayed out of politics and made no trouble for the new government. By 1923, via was beginning to offer his opinions about politics more openly. In a newspaper interview, he stated that he preferred de la Huerta, not Chias, be the next president of Mexico. After retirement, as I just said, via almost never left his estate because that would expose him to his enemies. But as the years passed, he relaxed a bit and would occasionally take trips up to the city of Parral, where he was known and liked and was comfortable.
