Great story at the New York Times at this link.

It is about a Mexican immigrant to the then Arizona territory who was a successful business person and was loyal to the United States of America even though the Confederate sympathizers confiscated all his property when he refused to pledge loyalty to the Confederacy.
I think it will be a great story for Cinco de Mayo.
