Chiaulta de Tapia

Chiaulta de Tapia is a town 55 kilometres southwest of Izúcar de Matamoros.

On 23 February 1915 its Presidente Municipal, Juan Miniver, wrote to Emiliano Zapata asking permission to issue a series of vales. Local businessmen Jesús M. Mentado, Herminio González, José E. Aguilar and Rafael Flores would issue up to $500 in notes of 5c, 10c, 20c, 25c, 50c and 75c, authorised and stamped by the Presidencia Municipal and redeemable in any of their businesses. The request was refused^{AGN, Fondo Emiliano Zapata, caja 6, exp. 1, f 42}.

Puebla

On 17 August 1915 the Jefe de la Oficina de Información del Gobierno de Puebla, A. Solis Bede, announced that because of the shortage of small change the town council would probably make an issue of low-value notes^{The Mexican Herald, Año XX, Núm. 7272, 18 August 1915}. However, no issue was made, and the council probably made use of cartones from Mexico City.
