Lorenzo Asisara's 1890 Interview:
"The capture the wild Indian, first were taken the children, and then the parents followed. The padres would erect a hut, and light the candles to say Mass, and the Indians, attracted by the light-thinking they were stars- would approach, and soon be taken. These would bring in others, such as their relatives."
