Biography
Perico is individually named among the Apache prisoners under General D. S. Stanley’s charge at San Antonio in his October 11, 1886 report. The October 22 orders again identify him among the prisoners then at the post and direct his guarded transfer to Fort Pickens, Florida. The correspondence documents actual military detention during the forced removal of the Chiricahua Apaches; it does not establish a criminal conviction or final release date.
