According to the *Morning Herald* of July 10, 1876, crew members of the steamship *Tybee* reported that Pablo Villanueva, ex-Minister of War and Marine under Dominican President Gonzales, boarded the vessel at Cape Haytien with a valid Dominican passport and arrived at St. Domingo City. Upon arrival, Villanueva was warned that the newly elected President would order his arrest if he came ashore, prompting Villanueva to summon American Consul Mr. Paul Jones to state that his only intentions were to reunite with his family, collect a debt of $5,000, and depart for New York without causing political strife. Following this conversation, Consul Jones went ashore.

A su arribo, se advirtió a Villanueva que el recién electo presidente ordenaría su detención si bajaba a tierra, lo que indujo a Villanueva a llamar al cónsul estadounidense, Sr. Paul Jones, para manifestarle que su único propósito era reunirse con su familia, cobrar una acreencia de 5.000 dólares y viajar a Nueva York sin provocar disturbios políticos. Concluida la conversación, el cónsul Jones marchó a tierra.
