SummaryResumen
A profile of President Heureaux tells how his brother-in-law, the husband of the half sister for whom he had a real affection, was advanced rapidly in the government service, warned once after joining a plot to assassinate the president, and found within six months plotting again. Heureaux gave a state breakfast in the young man's honor, seated him at his side, and as the meal ended told him he was going to be shot in five minutes; the official was then shot in the courtyard while the president's sister screamed from the windows above, and the uncoffined body was quickly buried in a flower garden.
Un perfil del presidente Heureaux cuenta cómo su cuñado, el esposo de la media hermana por quien sentía un verdadero afecto, fue ascendido rápidamente en el servicio del gobierno, advertido una vez tras unirse a un complot para asesinar al presidente, y descubierto en menos de seis meses conspirando de nuevo. Heureaux ofreció un desayuno de Estado en honor del joven, lo sentó a su lado y, al terminar la comida, le dijo que iba a ser fusilado en cinco minutos; el funcionario fue fusilado entonces en el patio mientras la hermana del presidente gritaba desde las ventanas de arriba, y el cuerpo sin ataúd fue enterrado rápidamente en un jardín de flores.
