In October 1840 mail from Cuba and the Isle of St. Domingo (Hispaniola) ceased to be carried by the Mexican Packet but was transferred to the Leeward Islands service. An outstanding and rare entire.rnNote: The long contents read in part "had I known what I do now St. Domingo would never have seen my face, not that I dislike the Country, but I most thoroughly abhor the people...They have a great deal of senseless pride about them...Consequently there is a great deal of underhand work going on...To speak the candid truth I am sick of Cape Hayti...I have often though there is a particular curse that hangs, if not over this town, at least over the Island...it was from here that the party was sent that surprised Toussaint L'Ouverture and carried him to France, a man, black though he was, that would have done honour to any country. It was in this town that the last of the Frenchmen in this part of the Island were butchered in cold blood by the Haytian Emperor Desalines after guaranteeing their safety..".Ausruf : 1.500,00 CHFZuschlag : 4.600,00 CHFLosnr. : 4082 Haiti
