The Minister in Honduras (Summerlin) to the Secretary of State

27. My telegram number 26, February 13, 11 a.m. The Minister for Foreign Affairs has just shown me copies of telegrams from Honduranean authorities at Omoa and Cortes reporting that a Guatemalan force of 1 chief and 50 men has invaded Honduranean territory at Chachagualilla, captured the chief of the small guard there, and are now occupying that outpost. Coello stated that his Government has protested vigorously against this invasion and outrage and has requested immediate restoration of Honduranean force at Chachagualilla and withdrawal of Guatemalan force. Repeated to Guatemala.
