El Chipote, 12 December 1927.
Rigoberto Reyes, Jinotega.
I have seen the order that you sent to our
authorities of Yalí
in order that they hold elections for local
authorities. I must tell you that in order
to accomplish this, it will be necessary that
you and the rest of the mercenaries who are in
the Campo de Marte, take the lead of an army and
come and disarm me, as otherwise, you have no
right to give such orders. If you so
eagerly wish to master this zone, you should
hold your rifle so that you would realize how
the genuine sons of my country defend the
national honor. You are a coward, and you prove
it by having joined to the traitor, Adolfo Díaz.
Do not believe that you are safe. You will
soon hear the first bombs in the suburbs of
Jinotega, and that will be the true notice that
your end is near. Traitors have no right
to life. Coward!! Mercenary!!
