On November 23, when he departed Algeciras, Gómez Damas found himself surrounded at Alcalá de los Gazules. Gómez Damas attempted to reach Arcos de la Frontera, but met Narváez’s army at the Majaceite River. The battle resulted with Gómez Damas’ withdrawal to Villamartín. An English commentator wrote that “it was at Majaciete that [Narváez] rescued Andalucía from the Carlist invasion by a brilliant coup de main, in a rapid but destruction action, which will not readily be effaced from the memory of the southern provinces.”
