SummaryResumen
The commissioners report that earthquakes have done no serious damage in the island since 1846 and that the slight shocks each year are scarcely noticed, though hurricanes sometimes cause considerable damage. Of the island's three great bays, Samana, Azua and Manzanilla, only Samana has military importance, and the commissioners state that acquiring it would give a powerful military and naval station and the site of a great commercial city; the report then sets out the government's debt and finances.
Los comisionados informan que los terremotos no han causado daños graves en la isla desde 1846 y que las leves sacudidas de cada año apenas se notan, aunque los huracanes a veces causan daños considerables. De las tres grandes bahías de la isla, Samaná, Azua y Manzanilla, solo Samaná tiene importancia militar, y los comisionados afirman que adquirirla daría una poderosa estación militar y naval y el sitio de una gran ciudad comercial; el informe expone después la deuda y las finanzas del gobierno.
