Lived 1862 – 1946 (aged 83). Salvador Aguirre was a Honduran politician and lawyer.
Salvador Aguirre (1862–1947) was acting President of Honduras for one week, from 9 through 16 September 1919.
In early 1919, Honduran president Francisco Bertrand Barahona was facing the end of his presidency. He attempted to transfer power to his brother-in-law, Nazario Soriano, which precipitated a revolt. When it became clear that the rebels would win, Bertrand Barahona resigned and Aguirre took power as an interim leader. He was succeeded by Vicente Mejía Colindres, who had previously served as Minister of the Government.
