!. 10 De QUEBRADILLAs

Desde aver tarde circula por esta Capital
un rumorque es objeto de grandes concentrates,
por la gravedad que entrafa. No quisimos
hacernos eco de el, sin beber antes EN- fuentes
6dedignas para saber que atenernos.
Y he aquf las noticias que hoy hemos po
dido recoger:
<Not6se que dos grupos de hombres del
pueblo salfan a pie caballo por la noche de
la poblacion de Quebradillas. La guardia ci-
vii trato de averiguar ell por que de aquellos
grupos, al detenerlos supo por ellos mismos
que Sc dirijfan buscar trabajo en- otros barrios'
La noticia del suceso, llevo Quebradillas, al
pueblos limftrofes. Els todo 10 ocurrido a 10
cual no Sc da importancia ninguna en- el Co
bierno generals
Nosotros en- vista de los acentuados rumo-
res de partidas armadas que decfase aver tarde
sc habfan alzado Ell Qaebradillas d 10 cual,
dicho sea verdad, no dimos credito alguno,
hablamos anoche mismo con un estimado amigo
nuestro respectable caballero afliado al parti-
do conservador, llegado aver el tren de
de la tarde.
Dfjonos que le habfa sorprendido ell rumor
que aquf circulaba. Sali6 de Quebradillas a
medic dfa todo 10 habfa dejado en- paz y
perfecta calma. Mas aun: durmi6 la noch e
anterior en- una hacienda pr6xima Aguadilla
y NADIA vio por aquellos campos que demostrase
la menor perturbation. Media hora despues de
haber salido de Camuy, vi6 al senor Miquelini,
primer jefe de la Guardia civil, que acompaha
do solo de su cochero, Sc dirigfa al dicho
pueblo.
Creemos que los propagandlstas de notlclo
nes de efecto, deberfan severamente repri-
midos Esos rumores perjudican gravemente
nuestro credito en- ell extranj jero y alarman mu-
cho q las familias.
