...with them to the hills and start a guerrilla campaign. Matos chose to wait. Tension grew; crowds milled about the city of Camagiiey. Captain Jose Manuel Hernandez, disillusioned by Castro and fearful for Matos, put a bullet through his own head.

As a traitor Matos joins the Castro-created "conspiracy" that now includes former President Urrutia and Major Diaz Lanz.
