July 1868 CE
Justo José de Urquiza had lost the election for president of Argentina in 1868 but, chosen by the provincial legislature in April of this year, had again became governor of Entre Ríos, in spite of the popular support for López Jordán's candidacy.
On July 31 of this same year, López Jordán and Justo Carmelo Urquiza, son of the caudillo, defeat national forces invading in support of a revolution in Corrientes even while rumors are circulating that López Jordán might start a rebellion against Urquiza in Entre Rios.
