Mayoral term

On 31 August 1826, during the midst of mayor Pérez Guerra's mayoral term, a slave revolt in Ponce against the slave owners in Ponce was discovered and the slaves were condemned to death. The Provincial Military Governor of Puerto Rico, Miguel de la Torre, traveled to Ponce to witness the mass shooting. The 11 slaves shot dead were named as follows: Francisco Jose, Federico, Benito, Pablo Viejo, Oguis, Jose Felix (from Barrio El Quemado), Faustino (also from Barrio El Quemado), Francisco Antonio, Don Esteban Miguel Roque's Francisco Antonio and Manuel, and Don Wedestein's Inés.[7] There are no Acts in the Municipality for the period from 1824 to 1834, affecting the period while Pérez Guerra was mayor.[8]

gollark: `component.modem.broadcast(1, "nanomachines", "setInput", 1, true)` does nothing on a wireless-modem-equipped computer which I'm standing beside. I drank some nanomachines and they seemed to do something, because I have a power bar thing.
gollark: Does anyone know if the nanobots have some weird requirements I'm missing?
gollark: <@173511059582222336> How is the serverwide price comparison thing going?
gollark: I'm standing right next to it, but nothing happens when I do `modem.transmit(1, 0, "nanomachines", "setInput", [lots of numbers because it's in a for loop], true)`.
