Individual evidence

  1. El diputado Tomas Valladares publicó un voto particular y en él habla de la falta de libertad en que se liallaron algunos diputados, por la gran concurrencia de gente á las galerías y por las amenazantes demostraciones que desde allí se hacian en favor de don Dionisio Herrera . Este voto pone en claro un hecho histórico: habia gran, concurrencia de gente en las galerías, y esta gente pedia que Herrera continuara en el mando.
