Government troops beat the Nordistes at Claireur

Haitian

On 7 January 1889, the government troops defeated the Northerners there and took from them four flags, 50 cases of munitions, 12 carbines and 8 saddled horses, making 10 prisoners. Saint-Preux Gabeau, the chief of the Northerners, perished in the action.

Rouzier tells this under the entry Claireur.
