A letter detailing the changes to laws concerning Chinese settlers and their legal rights as workers in Cuba.

Once a contract has expired, the Chinese settler is considered to be liberated from the legal bounds of that contract and is free to enter into another with the same employer or another. The governor replied to the letter and formally adopted these laws into the legal code.
