Framed Print of The British Consulate, Omoa, Honduras, 1873. Creator: Unknown
The British Consulate, Omoa, Spanish Honduras, 1873. We are obliged to Lieutenant B. G. Deane, R.N. for a view of the British Vice-Consulate at the port of Omoa, one of the chief seats of trade with the interior...Last year the Government of this State...was deposed by a revolutionary party...For several months a civil war has raged...accompanied with the usual stagnation of trade and detriment to foreign merchants, mostly English, who have a large capital invested in mahogany and other exports....The General commanding the Arias party, Streber by name, had there perpetrated serious outrages on the merchants and others in the town. Among other misdeeds, the British Vice-Consulate was broken open, and jewels, money, and goods to the amount of many thousand pounds were taken; while the British flag was hauled down and trampled on...The doors were smashed in, there was an iron safe wrenched open, and drawers and cupboards were rifled, jewel-cases emptied and strewn on the floor. Violence and burglary were apparent in every corner when the British commander and party effected an entrance. The sketch shows the outside of the building... the doors having been resecured and sealed, and the British flag once more hoisted above the house'. From Illustrated London News, 1873.
