Ponfillo ordered his removal to Puerto Principe for trial, with uncertainty whether his life will be spared. Dockery is in good spirits but confined under poor food and heat, awaiting a governor-general decision. The letter also notes Cuba war taxes and how merchants add a quarter of one percent to invoices, shifting costs to consumers as the United States, a major buyer of Cuban exports, bears most war expenses.
