Baudilio Palma
Guatemalan politician (1880–1930?) / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Baudilio Palma (Santa Catarina Mita, Jutiapa, 1874[lower-alpha 1] – Guatemala City, 17 December 1930[lower-alpha 2]) was acting President of Guatemala, in place of general Lázaro Chacón González, from 13 to 17 December 1930, when he was deposed and probably assassinated after coup d'état led by general Manuel María Orellana Contreras, who appointed himself as president. Several authors argue that he might not have been killed, but went into exile to El Salvador, where he would have died on 19 June 1944.[1]
