A procession of soldiers marches through a town square as a man on a platform addresses the crowd. A mounted officer leads a group of riders past an arched building. The transcript includes a welcome speech naming General Jose Juan Reyes.
“Welcome to Cholula. Welcome to the liberators of this martyred town. We hail you, trumpet soldiers of freedom. Long live General Jose Juan Reyes. We are thankful that you have come to liberators.” 5:23 automatic transcript, may be wrong
The record
No renewal found An automated finding, not a verdict. A renewal would have appeared in the Copyright Office's renewal registrations 27 to 29 years after the term began. Those volumes are loaded and our parse of them found no matching renewal. If that is right, a work published 1931–1963 that was not renewed entered the public domain at the end of its 28th year; the volumes are OCR of old print, and the method page reports how often the parse has been found to miss one. Evidence dossier. The finding concerns the US copyright record for the film; it is not clearance for any use, and this page's annotation is machine output.
