Archie Frost, his wife, and 6 month old baby drove their Dodge touring car thru a hail of rifle fire and made it to Deming. He wife was hit and wounded by one bullet. They could see see smoke of the burning town in Deming but had no clue what was going on. When they found out the first relief force to arrive in Columbus was I company 1st regt NMNG. They arrive the next afternoon. I believe they got their in private vehicle. They were leg infantry unit. This was the local NG unit out of Deming.
