Fort of the Defenders of the Sovereignty of Nicaragua,
 
El Chipote.  1 January 1928.
 
Mesers John Nevin Sayre & Robert C. Jones, International Hotel, Managua.
 
Dear Sirs:
 
I have the honor of answering your communication dated the 27th of last December.  I cannot accept the conference that you propose in your letter.  I wonder because you offer me guarantees when I am an outlaw, furthermore, it is up to us to give guarantees since we are the genuine sons of Nicaragua.  We shall comply with what we have said before:  that we will not retire because as long as the punitive Yankees are in our territory, we shall always hold to arms.  In the moment that I am answering your letter we are looking at the burning of the town of Quilalí done by the pirate Yankees.  Oh!  Damned flesh that shall have its reward ! !
 
Patria y Libertad
 
/s/  A. C. Sandino
