In virtue of the extraordinary faculties
which have been granted by Congress to
the President, General Santa Anna, he
has decreed as follows:
LIST. The Mexican nation, no less just
in the punishment of those who usurp
her rights than in recompensing her sons
tor their renowned exploits, acknowledges
Don Augustin Iturbide as one of the
principal authors of her independence,
for having proclaimed it in Iguala, and
conquered it by his prudence and valor.
Cd. The remains of Don Augustin Itur-
bide shall be brought to the capital, and
preserved in the urn destined for the
first heroes of the independence.
8. Consequently, the widow, the daugh-
tiers and sons of Don Augustn Iturbide,
are at liberty to return to the territory OF
the republic, with the exception of the
eldest son, who now fills a diplomatic sta
ton abroad.
4th. The annual pension granted by
law to the family of Don Augustin ltur'
bide, shall be continued to be paid TO the
same in future as heretofore.
