SummaryResumen

Letters of General Luperon from Capotillo in early 1871 report him organizing a small force for a campaign in the Cibao, with anti-annexation propaganda very active around Guayabin and Monte Cristi and word that the American flag has been raised at Monte Cristi. He writes that Cabral could send him no men from the south, that he will make his sortie with only forty or fifty officers, and he urgently asks for at least fifty thousand chassepot cartridges; a Santo Domingo letter adds that Luperon was later defeated and his secretary, General Manuel Rodriguez Objio, captured and shot.

Cartas del general Luperon desde Capotillo a principios de 1871 lo muestran organizando una pequeña fuerza para una campaña en el Cibao, con una propaganda contra la anexión muy activa alrededor de Guayabin y Monte Cristi y la noticia de que la bandera americana ha sido izada en Monte Cristi. Escribe que Cabral no pudo enviarle hombres desde el sur, que hará su salida con solo cuarenta o cincuenta oficiales, y pide con urgencia al menos cincuenta mil cartuchos para fusiles chassepot; una carta de Santo Domingo añade que Luperon fue derrotado después y que su secretario, el general Manuel Rodriguez Objio, fue capturado y fusilado.
