THE CLAIM OF COSTA RIGA TO THE MOSQUITO
TERRITORY.
Signor Molina in the name Of the republic of Costa
Rca protests against the contemplated settlement of Col
Kinney and his associates without knowing where IL to
begin where end because he asserts that
public "has recognised is disposed to recognise
any title grant made by the kings chiefs Of the Mos
quito Indians, and purportng to bc located within the
weknown limits of Costa Rca, which from Escudo do
Veragua TO the port OF San Juan the Atlantic and
then following the Of said river to the lake OF Mica
ragua.n
We have nothing say against Signor Molinas repudi
alton Of the right Of the King of the Mosquitoes to make
grants Of land within the limits Of Costa Rica or
else and II this protest had from the representative
Of Nicaragua should have thought it perfectly we'll
timed had the government Of the United States been

what right Costa Rca protests cannot conceive IN the
map Of Central America the Mosquito coast Is placed on
the right bank of the river San juan ascending to which
Costa Rca believe, makes pretensionsat least we
have never heard of any With regard to her claim to The

where it reaches the The reader will therefore, Judge
Of Sgnor Molina when he that hc

II is true that Costa Rica somewhere about the year
