SummaryResumen
The *Delaware Gazette and State Journal* reported on the shooting of an American boat crew from the schooner *Henry Crosby* by Dominican troops near Azua. The attack resulted in the wounding of the first officer and fatal injuries to a sailor, despite the schooner prominently displaying the American flag. Local authorities offered no immediate redress, having reportedly acted under the mistaken belief that the vessel was transporting foreign-backed rebels.

El ataque provocó heridas al primer oficial y lesiones mortales a un marinero, a pesar de que la goleta enarbolaba visiblemente la bandera estadounidense. Las autoridades locales no ofrecieron ninguna reparación inmediata, habiendo actuado, según se informó, bajo la falsa creencia de que el barco transportaba rebeldes respaldados por extranjeros.
