Alright, if you must insist, tell us big sister (instead of big brother). Just kidding. This guy came from the hills of Puerto Rico to the hills of DR. He is a campesino who probably did not know how to read and write, marries a Dominican campesina in the same situation. All he knows is country life and how to write an X. Believe it or not around and after the vietnam war a bunch of service men were/are illiterate.
