In 1810, the conspirators of Querétaro met in the house of the corregidor Miguel Domínguez. They met at tertulias literarias, literary gatherings. México Desconocido notes that Epigmenio González, one of the conspirators, was a regular at the literary gatherings in the corregidor’s house.
A report sent to the authorities in 1810, now published by UNAM, said that the plan was discussed “en casa del corregidor, y en una academia recién establecida, y con las mayores precauciones” (in the corregidor’s house, and in a newly founded academy, and with the greatest caution).
