Very Good.

Chiquimila: 2 Agosto, 1853. Very good plus.. Small broadside, approximately 8.25 x 6.5 inches. Trimmed a bit raggedly. Small wormhole at lower left, affecting one letter. Light tanning. An otherwise unrecorded 1853 broadside, in which Rafael Carrera addresses the army and people of Guatemala concerning the ongoing strife with Honduras. He writes, in part: "Sé bien que los pueblos de Honduras son nuestros hermanos, y siempre habiamos vivido con ellos en la mejor armonia; mas ahora, ¿por qué sufren que se les constituya en instrumentos y se les haga victimas de las pasiones inconsideradas de unos pocos revolucionario?

Not in OCLC.

A scarce 1855 broadside in which Guatemalan caudillo Rafael Carrera addresses Hondurans regarding the perceived malign intentions of their president, José Trinidad Cabañas. Honduras, with Cabañas at the helm, had been in conflict with Guatemala since 1853, and it was Cabañas' stated goal to reunite the states of the defunct Federal Republic of Central America (to which end he also invaded Nicaragua in 1854). In this address, Carrera states the need to invade Honduras in order to halt the aggressions of Cabañas, reiterates his desire for peace and friendship with "true" Hondurans, and promises his assistance in reestablishing a reasonable government in their country. It reads, in part: "En esa contienda, las simpaticas del pueblo de… Read More
