The Navase lighthouse light was first projected

Haitian

NAVASE ( la ). This island between Haiti and Jamaica is found 600 miles from Colon. A barren and uninhabited rock. The lighthouse service of the United States has built an extraordinary lighthouse. After many difficulties of construction, due to the inaccessibility of the island, on 21 October 1917 the light was projected from the top of the reinforced concrete tower.

Rouzier tells this under the entry NAVASE ( la ).
