    First paragraph from the article...

    MADERO'S CAMP, Bustillo's Estate, near Chihuahua, April 8.--Madero, with his 8,000 insurrectos, broke camp to-day and started toward the Casas Grandes region, which is evidently a move in accordance with newly laid plans to abandon whatever method of attack he had projected from his camp here. However, the likelihood of a battle within the next few days is as strong as ever, and it is believed that the Federals will be the aggressors.

    ***Obviously, it was Madero's stronghold for attack, but for some reaason, he had a change of plans.

    La Hacienda de Bustillo era parte del latifundio de los hermanos Zuluoaga (Pedro y Carlos, hermanos a su vez de Leonardo quien era dueño del latifundio de la Hacienda de San Lorenzo de la Laguna [al suroeste del estado de Coahuila], donde estaba incluida al poniente, el Rancho del Torreón [donde se ubica actualmente la Ciudad de Torreón, Coahuila]). Don Alberto Madero era yerno de don Carlos, a su vez administrador de la Hacienda de Bustillo; y tio de Don Francisco Ignacio Madero a quien puso a su disposición la hacienda para sus actividades políticas

    Madero desde Encinillas se lanzó sobre San Adrés, colocandose finalmente a unos 60 kilómetros al norte de la Ciudad de Chihuahua el 26 de marzo de 1911. Tres dias después (29 de marzo) Don Francisco Ignacio estableció su cuartel general en la Hacienda de Bustillo donde se le incorporó Francisco Villa con una fuerza de 600 hombres (Wikipedia, Revolución Mexicana, Toma de Ciudad Juárez)

    If you go to Google Maps go about 15 miles north east from Cuauhtemoc (or 4 miles east from Anahuac) and you'll find pictures of this place, and easily idetify the front porch.

    Notice that in this picture Mr. Madero is wearing vandages no more on his righjt hand, which was wounded during Casas Grandes Battle on March 6, 1911. Above I wrote Mr. Madero quartered in Bustillo Hacienda on March 29, that's 23 days after he was wounded,
    which makes you think the injury was not serious.

    Found an article in El Paso Herald, issue April 8, 1911 (The Library of Congress, Cronicling America) entiled "CHIHUAHUA STREETS ARE ALL FORTIFIED", in the second paragraph you
    can read: "Madero and Orozco had been at Bustillos, 60 miles west of Chihuahua with 1200 men, for nearly two weeks [that is about March 25], unmolested. Many railroad men, phtogra- phers have been entertained by them. Their pictures now adorn one side of several thou- sand new postal cards in Chihuahua"

    Friederich Katz in his "Pancho Villa" writes that Madero´s army started out from Bustillos towards north on April 7, 1911. Two columns, 500 men each, one headed by Pascual Orozco and the second by Pancho Villa. Behind them came Madero commanding 1500 men.
    And an article of El Paso Herald, issue April, Monday 10, 1911 (The Library of Congress, Cronicling America) says: "Private advises from Pearson verify the report that Madero's army is moving on Casas Grandes. The army arrived in Madera Saturday [8th] night....."
    This and previous comment corrals Madero´s stay in Bustillos Hacienda from about March 24 to April 7 (16 days), enough time to take thousands of fictures which although only a few are in this collection, can be contextualized wiht the above mentioned articles (and some not mentioned).
