SummaryResumen

After the insurgent commander obtained a four-day armistice and President Baez had made his arrangements for leaving the country, Baez sent the Senate a message on January 2, 1874 laying down the presidency, recalling that he had been called in 1868 when paper money had brought bankruptcy and public credit had vanished. That same afternoon Baez left Santo Domingo for St. Thomas on the French war vessel Kersaint, declaring he was in no sense an exile, having left voluntarily, and that he was tired of office and wished to rest and consult physicians about his eyes.

Después de que el comandante insurgente obtuviera una tregua de cuatro días y el presidente Báez hubiera hecho sus arreglos para salir del país, Báez envió al Senado un mensaje el 2 de enero de 1874 en el que renunciaba a la presidencia, recordando que había sido llamado en 1868 cuando el papel moneda había traído la bancarrota y el crédito público había desaparecido. Esa misma tarde Báez salió de Santo Domingo hacia Saint Thomas en el buque de guerra francés Kersaint, declarando que no era en ningún sentido un exiliado, pues había salido voluntariamente, y que estaba cansado del cargo y deseaba descansar y consultar a médicos sobre sus ojos.
