SummaryResumen
This profile of Heureaux recounts how he walked among men who had been swearing to take his life, told them they were not nearly so anxious for his life as they believed, and let them go free without taking any action. It describes his polished manner and entertaining conversation, his three-story palace in Santo Domingo covering a block, and the keen slight he felt because the aristocratic Dominicans refused to admit him to their social circles on account of his blood.
Este perfil de Heureaux relata cómo caminó entre hombres que habían estado jurando quitarle la vida, les dijo que no estaban ni de lejos tan ansiosos por su vida como ellos creían, y los dejó ir libres sin tomar ninguna medida. Describe su trato cortés y su conversación entretenida, su palacio de tres pisos en Santo Domingo que ocupa una manzana, y el desaire que sentía agudamente porque los dominicanos aristocráticos se negaban a admitirlo en sus círculos sociales a causa de su sangre.
