43. Sept. 28, a passenger told Rizal the bad
news that he would be arrested by order
Gov. Gen. Blanco and would be sent to
prison in Ceuta (Spanish Morocco),
Gibraltar.
Shocked by the news, he realized that he
was fooled by the Spanish officials. That
made him to write a letter to his best
friend.
44. "A passengeron boardjust toldme newsthat I canhardlybelieveand
should it be true, would bring to an end the prestige of Philippine
Authorities.
I cannot believe for it would be the greatest injustice and the most
abominableinfamy, unworthynot of a militaryofficialbutof the last
bandit…
I cannot believeit! This is infamous, but if it turns out to be true as
everybodyassures me, I am communicating to youthese newsso thatyou
may appraise my situation.“
Yours,
Jose Rizal

back to Manila

48. After the interview, Rizal was taken
aboard the colon which was "full of
soldiers“. At 8:00 p.m., the ship left
Barcelona with Rizal on board.
49. What was the reason why Rizal did not agree
with the Katipunan's cause?
As a good general of our country, he also fought for
our independence. When he was asked of joining
the Katipunan Revolution, he refused to join the
Katipunan Revolution. This is because his
brothers Juan and Jose and him believed in
gradual reform.
50. REMEMBER:
After Andrés Bonifacio issued the
Grito de Balintawak in 1896, Rizal was
arrested, convicted of sedition, and
executed by firing squad on December
30, 1896.
51. Rizal was tried before a court-martial
for rebellion, sedition and conspiracy,
and was convicted on all three charges
and sentenced to death.
54. Why did Rizal leave Japan when he was happy in that beautiful
country and was in loved with a pretty Japanese girl?
There is no doubt that Rizal and O-sei-san were deeply in
love. If Rizal were a man without patriotism and without self-
control, he would have stayed permanently in Japan. He could
have married beautiful O-sei-san and lived happily with her. He
could have a good life in Japan, for the Spanish legation offered
him a job with a high salary. But he was dedicated to a noble
mission - the welfare and freedom of his oppressed people. And
nothing, even the love of the pretty girl and a good job could
make him forgets his mission in life.
56. Who became Rizal’s wife? How did they meet?
Rizal has his last romance in Dapitan. He falls in love
with a pretty Irish girl from Hongkong name Josephine
Bracken. This girl accompanied her blind foster father,
George Taufer, to treated by Jose Rizal. Rizal fails to
cure Taufer’s blindness, but he won the love of
Josephine. Josephine proved to be worthy of Rizal.
Together they lived as man and wife in Dapitan.
Josephine made Rizal happy. Unfortunately, there only
child-a-boy- died three hours after his birth.
58. Why did Leonor Rivera break her engagement
with Rizal? Who did she marry?
Another sorrow of Rizal in Madrid was the
break-up of his engagement with Leonor
Rivera. One cold day in December 1890 he
received a letter from Leonor announcing her
marriage with Henry Kipping, a British
Engineer in the Manila, Dagupan Railway.
This sorrowful news broke his heart.
60. Jose Rizal is a very intelligent person. He
always thinks in a positive way. 1896 was
the year that he went back to Manila and
considered his last trip abroad.
61. Concluding on his messages to his
family and his best friend regarding his
presumed death, he knew that it was
his last trip and that he accepted the
possibility to perish anytime during the
trip. He was so brave not just
physically but emotionally as well that
he thoroughly decided every step to
take.
62. However, Rizal is also just a man who
commits blunders. During this last
trip, he did one of his greatest
mistakes in his life. That mistake was
to trust a friend who was secretly
conspiring against him.
63. His last trip abroad was the saddest part. He
knew his death was near, yet he still went
home.
Therefore, with the love of his country and
his countrymen he chose to die, than to be
safe abroad while his country suffers cruelty
of other country. Nevertheless, he released
the Philippines from captivity and freed us
through his peaceful and heroic way of
revolution.
