SummaryResumen

A correspondent's letter from the City of Santo Domingo describes a military commission that sentenced General Pelletier, General Aybar, Francisco Ruiz and others accused of conspiracy to death, with others sentenced to expatriation, imprisonment or banishment. After the condemned men's children pleaded for grace, the prisoners were led to the execution ground on May 21, knelt while their sentence was read and faced the firing party, until General Santana cried halt and had a pardon for the three read aloud; Ruiz rose from his knees having lost his reason under the horror. The letter adds that the pardoned men received passports to leave the country and that upwards of fifty individuals were banished, including women and children and the sisters of ex-President Baez.

La carta de un corresponsal desde la ciudad de Santo Domingo describe una comisión militar que condenó a muerte al general Pelletier, al general Aybar, a Francisco Ruiz y a otros acusados de conspiración, mientras otros fueron condenados a expatriación, prisión o destierro. Después de que los hijos de los condenados suplicaran gracia, los prisioneros fueron llevados al lugar de ejecución el 21 de mayo, se arrodillaron mientras se leía su sentencia y quedaron frente al pelotón de fusilamiento, hasta que el general Santana gritó alto e hizo leer en voz alta un indulto para los tres; Ruiz se levantó de rodillas habiendo perdido la razón por el horror. La carta añade que los indultados recibieron pasaportes para salir del país y que más de cincuenta personas fueron desterradas, incluidas mujeres y niños y las hermanas del expresidente Báez.
