Biography
Antonio Ezeta y León's brother was Carlos Ezeta who overthrew President General Francisco Menéndez in June 1885.[1] Ezeta commanded soldiers during the Totoposte War in July 1890.[2] Ezeta was elected as his brother's vice president in the 1891 presidential election,[3] assuming office on 1 March 1891.[4] He was also appointed as commander-in-chief of the army.[4]
During the Revolution of the 44 of April to June 1894, Ezeta was injured by rebel forces on 3 May. He was replaced as commander-in-chief by General León Bolaños until 23 May when he recovered from his injuries. His brother fled the country on 4 June, upon which, he assumed office as acting president. He fled the country for the United States on 10 June, and General Rafael Antonio Gutiérrez became the country's provisional president.[4]
