Rizal Chapter 22: Exile in Dapitan (Gregorio F. Zaide)Arvin Garing
Rizal lived in exile in far-away Dapitan, a remote town in Mindanao, which was under the missionary jurisdiction of the Jesuits, from 1892 to 1896. This four-year interregnum in his life was tediously unexciting, but was abundantly fruitful with varied achievements. He practices medicine, pursued scientific studies, continued his artistic and literary works, widened his knowledge of languages, established a school of boys, promoted community development projects, invented a wooden machine for making bricks, and engaged in farming and commerce. Despite his multifarious activities, he kept an extensive correspondence with his family, relatives, fellow reformists, and eminent scientists and scholars of Europe, including Blumentritt. Reinhold Rost, A.B. Meyer, W. Joest of Berlin, S. Knuttle of Stuttgart, and N.M. Keight of Prague.
Beginning of Exile in Dapitan. The steamer Cebu which brought Rizal to Dapitan carried a letter from Father Pablo Pastells, Superior of the Jesuit Society in the Philippines, to Father Antonio Obach, Jesuit parish priest of Dapitan. In this letter, Father Superior Pastells informed Father Obach that Rizal could live at the parish convent on the following conditions:
1. "That Rizal publicly retract his errors concerning religion, and make statements that were clearly pro-Spanish and against revolution.
2. "That he perform the church rites and make a general confession of his past life.
3. "That henceforth he conduct himself in an exemplary manner as a Spanish subject and a man of religion."
Rizal did not agree with these conditions. Consequently, he lived in the house of the commandant, Captain Carnicero. The relations between Carnicero (the warden) and Rizal (the prisoner) were warm and friendly.
House of Captain Carnicero.jpg) the house Rizal used to live.
Carnicero was charmed by Rizal's fine qualities and personality. They ate together at the same table and had many friendly conversations. Carnicero came to know that Rizal was not a common felon, much less a filibustero. He gave good reports on his prisoner to Governor Despujol. He gave him complete freedom to go anywhere, reporting only once a week at his office, and permitted Rizal, who was a good equestrian, to ride his chestnut horse.
Wins in Manila Lottery. On September 21, 1892, the sleepy town of Dapitan burst in hectic excitement. The mail boat Butuan was approaching the town, with colored pennants flying in the sea breezes. Captain Carnicero, thinking that a high Spanish official was coming, hastily dressed in gala uniform, ordered the town folks to gather at the shore, and himself rushed there, bringing a brass band.
The mail boat, Butuan, brought no Spanish officials but the happy tidings that the Lottery Ticket No. 9736 jointly owned by Captain Carnicero, Dr. Rizal, and Francisco Equilor (Spanish resident of Dipolog, a neighboring town of Dapitan) won the second prize of P20, 000 in the government-owned Manila Lottery.
Rizal began writing El Filibusterismo in 1887 and finished the manuscript in 1891 in Biarritz, France after 3 years of work. He moved the printing of the novel to the cheaper city of Ghent, Belgium. Due to financial difficulties, the printing process was halted until Valentin Ventura provided funds to complete it. The novel was published on September 18, 1891 and critiqued the oppressive Spanish colonial rule in the Philippines 13 years after the events of Noli Me Tangere.
Rizal spent time in Biarritz, France where he befriended the Boustead family and fell in love with their daughter Nellie. While staying with them, he finished writing his novel El Filibusterismo. However, his romance with Nellie did not result in marriage due to religious differences. After finishing his novel, Rizal left Biarritz and traveled to Paris and Brussels, where he focused on revising and publishing El Filibusterismo.
Rizal secretly departed Manila for Spain in 1882 to study, avoiding detection by Spanish authorities. After stops in Singapore, Ceylon, and traveling through the Suez Canal, he arrived in Barcelona and later Madrid to study medicine. He also visited Paris, where he studied ophthalmology under Dr. Louis de Weckert. He then traveled to Germany, living and studying in Heidelberg, Leipzig, Dresden, and Berlin. While in Berlin, he published his first novel Noli Me Tangere with help from friend Maximo Viola, though he had issues with local police over his lack of passport.
Rizal returned to the Philippines in 1887 after 5 years in Europe against warnings from friends and family. He established a medical practice in Calamba and treated patients, including his mother. However, he faced growing opposition from the Catholic church and Spanish authorities due to his novel Noli Me Tangere. In 1888, Rizal was forced to leave the Philippines again due to threats and traveled to Hong Kong, Macao, and eventually Japan to escape his enemies and continue advocating for reforms from abroad.
The document provides an in-depth summary of key elements in Jose Rizal's novel Noli Me Tangere including the author and style, title, cover, preface, theme, characters, plot, point of conflict, and denouement. It analyzes these elements over multiple paragraphs with details on the historical and social context of the Philippines under Spanish colonial rule that shaped the novel. The major theme is the corruption of the Spanish religious and civil authorities and their oppression of the Filipino people. The complex characters represent both the virtues and flaws of Filipino society as well as the abuse of power by the Spanish colonizers.

The document summarizes the plot and characters of Jose Rizal's novel El Filibusterismo. It discusses how the plot and theme were changed from Rizal's first novel, Noli Me Tangere, to convey that the corrupt Spanish colonial government in the Philippines could lead to Spain's downfall. While Noli Me Tangere portrayed the idealistic Crisostomo Ibarra, El Filibusterismo features the vengeful Simoun who seeks violent revolution. The document also notes the continued relevance of the novel's themes to issues in Philippine society today such as corruption, abuse of power, and the effects of colonialism.
Rizal left Europe for Hong Kong in 1891, where he lived with his family and worked as an ophthalmic surgeon. While in Hong Kong, he continued writing works advocating for reforms in the Philippines and conceived of a project to establish a Filipino colony in Borneo. Despite warnings that it was dangerous to return to Manila, Rizal decided to do so in 1892 in order to discuss his colony project with the governor and establish the Liga Filipina secret society. Before departing, he wrote letters to be opened after his death predicting his fate.

It also outlines the subplots involving other characters like Sisa, Basilio, Elias, and Padre Damaso.

With Viola's financial support, Rizal was able to print 2,000 copies of Noli Me Tangere in Berlin in 1887, bringing his work to publication during a time of great personal hardship.
Rizal chapter 21- THE SECOND HOMECOMING AND LA LIGA FILIPINAleahamper29
Rizal made his second homecoming to Manila in June 1892, where he sought meetings with Governor General Despujol to negotiate for pardons for his family members. During this time, he also visited friends in Central Luzon and founded the civic league Liga Filipina. On July 6, Rizal was arrested and jailed in Fort Santiago on accusations of publishing anti-Spanish writings. He was then deported to Dapitan on July 15, where he began his four-year exile.
Rizal began writing his novel Noli Me Tangere in Madrid in 1884, inspired by Uncle Tom's Cabin to write about the suffering of Filipinos under Spanish rule. He worked on it throughout travels in Europe, completing it in 1886 in Berlin. Unable to find a publisher, his friend Maximo Viola financed its publication in Berlin in 1887.

Noli Me Tangere tells the story of Juan Crisostomo Ibarra, who returns to the Philippines after studying abroad. He faces oppression from friars and is falsely accused of instigating an uprising.

Ang nobela ay nagsisimula sa isang paglalakbay ng isang bapor, ang Bapor Tabo. Doon ipinakilala ang ilang tauhan ng nobela na si Simoun, Isagani, at Basilio. Si Crisostomo Ibarra, ang bida sa Noli Me Tangere, ay nagbalik sa Pilipinas at nagbalatkayo bilang isang mayamang alahero na nagngangalang Simoun. Taglay ang poot at layong makapaghiganti at iligtas si Maria Clara sa kumbento, naglunsad si Simoun ng mga plano upang bulukin at pahinain ang pamahalaan upang maging sanhi ng himagsikan.
Lihim at masinop siyang nagbalak at nakipagkuntsaba sa iba't ibang tauhan sa nobela, kabilang na si Basilio. Una, binalak niyang manghimagsik at manggulo sa isang pulutong na sapilitang magbubukas sa kumbento ng Santa Clara upang agawin si Maria Clara. Ngunit hindi natuloy ang planong ito sapagkat namatay nang hapong iyon si Maria Clara. Pangalawa, nagkaroon ng pagkakataon si Simoun sa kasal ni Paulita Gomez at Juanito Pelaez kung saan dadalo ang lahat ng makapangyarihan sa pamahalaan. Niregaluhan ni Simoun ang ikinasal ng isang magarang lamparang may hugis granada na kasinlaki ng ulo ng tao.Lingid sa kaalaman ng lahat, ang ilawang ito ay nagtataglay ng granada na kapag itataas ang mitsa upang paliwanagin ay sasabog ito. Sa kasawiang palad at sa pangalawang pagkakataon, hindi natuloy ang balak na ito ni Simoun sapagkat nalaman ni Isagani ang maitim na balak na ito at mabilis na inihagis ang ilawan sa ilog.
Matapos ang pangyayari, namundok si Simoun dala ang kaniyang mga alahas at nakipagkita kay Padre Florentino. Nangumpisal si Simoun at pinatawad naman ng pari. Uminom si Simoun ng lason upang hindi mahuli ng mga guardia sibil na buhay. Nagwakas ang nobela nang ihagis ng pari ang kayamanan ni Simoun sa dagat at umasang matatagpuan iyon at magagamit para sa kabutihan ng taumbayan.

Niregaluhan ni Simoun ang ikinasal ng isang magarang lamparang may hugis granada na kasinlaki ng ulo ng tao.Lingid sa kaalaman ng lahat, ang ilawang ito ay nagtataglay ng granada na kapag itataas ang mitsa upang paliwanagin ay sasabog ito. Sa kasawiang palad at sa pangalawang pagkakataon, hindi natuloy ang balak na ito ni Simoun sapagkat nalaman ni Isagani ang maitim na balak na ito at mabilis na inihagis ang ilawan sa ilog.
Matapos ang pangyayari, namundok si Simoun dala ang kaniyang mga alahas at nakipagkita kay Padre Florentino. Nangumpisal si Simoun at pinatawad naman ng pari. Uminom si Simoun ng lason upang hindi mahuli ng mga guardia sibil na buhay. Nagwakas ang nobela nang ihagis ng pari ang kayamanan ni Simoun sa dagat at umasang matatagpuan iyon at magagamit para sa kabutihan ng taumbayan.

The id operates according to the pleasure principle, seeking immediate gratification of instincts. The superego incorporates societal morals and ideals that generate feelings of guilt. The ego acts as a mediator between the id and superego, balancing their demands with the reality principle by delaying gratification or sublimating urges into socially acceptable forms. An imbalance, such as an overly dominant id, superego, or ego, can disrupt healthy functioning and lead to maladaptive behaviors. Freud believed mental health requires a harmonious balance between the id, superego, and external world, mediated by a strong ego.

Creative dramatics involves children structuring and enacting scenes, stories, or events, typically from literature. It differs from pretend play in being carefully planned and led by a teacher. Creative dramatics allows children to experience stories firsthand through assuming roles and improvising dialogue. By identifying with characters, books become more meaningful for children, while the process of dramatizing stories helps in their social and cognitive development. Teachers should guide creative dramatics activities and ensure not every story detail is enacted. Suggested activities include acting out story titles, reading dialogue, dressing as characters, and dramatizing familiar tales.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
2. It begins with a reception given by Captain Tiago (Santiago de los
Santos) at his house in Calle Anloague (now Juan Luna Street) on the last
day of October. This reception or dinner was given in honor of Crisostomo
Ibarra, a young and rich Filipino who had just returned after seven years of
study in Europe. Ibarra was the only son od Don Rafael Ibarra, friend of
Captain Tiago, and fiancé of beautiful Maria Clara, supposed daughter of
Captain Tiago.
Among the guests during the reception were Padre Damaso, a fat
Franciscan friar who had been parish priest for 20 years of San Diego
(Calamba), Ibarra’s native town; Padre Sybila, a young Dominican parish
priest of Binondo; Señor Guevara, an elderly and kind lieutenant of the
Guardian Civil: Don Tiburcio de Espadaña, a bogus Spanish physician,
lame, and henpecked husband of Doña Victorina; and several ladies.
3. Ibarra, upon his arrival, produced a favorable impression among the
guests, except Padre Damaso, who was rude to him. In accordance with a
German custom, he introduced himself to the ladies.
During the dinner the conversation centered on Ibarra’s studies and
travels abroad. Padre Damaso was in bad mood because he got a bony neck
and a hard wing of the chicken tinola. He tried to discredit Ibarra’s remark.
After dinner, Ibarra left Capitan Tiago’s house to return to his hotel.
On the way, the kind Lieutenant Guevaram told him the sad story of his
father’s death in San Diego. Don Rafael, his father, was a rich brave man. He
defended a helpless boy from the brutality of an illiterate Spanish tax
collector, pushing the latter and accidentally killing him. Don Rafael was
thrown in prison, where he died unhappy. He was buried in consecrated
ground but his enemies, accusing him of being a heretic, had his body
removed from the cemetery.
4. On hearing about his father’s sad story. Ibarra thanked the kind
Spanish lieutenant and vowed to find out the truth about his fathers’
death.
The following morning, he visited Maria Clara, his childhood
sweetheart. Maria Clara teasingly said that he had forgotten her because
the girls in Germany were beautiful. Ibarra replied that he had never
forgotten her.
After the romantic reunion with Maria Clara, Ibarra went to San
Diego to visit his father’s grave. It was All Saint’s Day. At the cemetery, the
grave-digger told Ibarra that the corpse of Don Rafael was removed by
order of the parish priest to be, buried in the Chinese cemetery; but the
corpse was heavy and it was a dark rainy night so that he (the grave-
digger) simply threw the corpse into the lake.
5. Ibarra was angered by the grave-digger story. He left the cemetery.
On the way, he met Padre Salvi, Franciscan parish priest of San Diego. In a
flash, Ibarra pounced on the priest, demanding redress for desecrating his
father’s mortal remains. Padre Salvi told him that he had nothing to do
with it, for he was not the parish priest at the time of Don Rafael’s death. It
was Padre Damaso, his predecessor, who was responsible for it. Convinced
of Padre Salvi’s innocence, Ibarra went away.
In his town, Ibarra met several interesting people, such as the old
man, Tasio the philosopher, whose ideas were too advanced for his times
so that the people, who could not understand him, called him “Tasio the
Lunatic;” the progressive school teacher, who complained to Ibarra that
the children were losing interest in their studies because of the lack of a
proper school house and the discouraging attitude of the parish friar
towards both the teaching of Spanish and of the use of modern methods
6. of pedagogy; the spineless gobernadorcillo, who catered to the wishes of
the Spanish parish friar, Don Filipo Lino, the teniente-mayor and leader of
the liberal faction in the town; Don Melchor, the captain of the cuadrilleros
(town police); and the former gobernadorillos who were prominent
citizens – Don Basilio and Don Valentin.
Most tragic story in the novel is the tale of Sisa, who formerly a rich
girl but became poor because she married a gambler, and a wastrel at that.
She became crazy because she lost her two boys, Basilio and Crispin, the
joys of her wretched life. These boys were sacristanes (sextons) in the
church working for a small wage to support their poor mother. Crispin, the
youngest of the two brothers, accused by the brutal sacristan mayor (chief
sexton) of stealing the money of the priest. He was tortured in the convent
and died. Basilio, with his brother’s dying cries ringing in his ears, escaped.
7. When the two boys did not return home, Sisa looked for them everywhere
and ,in her great sorrow. She became insane.
Capitan Tiago, Maria Clara, and Aunt Isabel (Capitan Tiago’s cousin
who took care of Maria Clara, after her mother’s death) arrived in San
Diego. Ibarra and his friends gave a picnic at the lake. Among those present
in the picnic, were Maria Clara and his four girl friends – “the merry
Siñang, the grave Victoria, the beautiful Iday, and the thoughtful
Neneng,”Aunt Isabel, chaperon of Maria Clara; Capitana Tika, mothe of
Siñang: Andeng, foster-sister of Maria Clara; Albino, the extheological
student who was in love with Siñang; and Ibarra and his friends. One of the
boatmen was a strong and silent peasant youth named Elias.
An incident of the picnic was the saving of Elias life by Ibarra. Elias
bravely grappled with crocodile which was caught in the fish corral. But
the crocodile struggled furiously so that Elias could not subdue it.
8. Ibarra jumped into the water and killed the crocodile, thereby saving Elias.
Another incident, which preceded the above mentioned near-tragic
crocodile incident, was the rendering of the beautiful song by Maria Clara
who had a sweet vice. Upon the insistent request of her friends, she played
the harp and sang.
9. THE SONG OF MARIA CLARA
“Sweet are the hours in one’s native land,
Where all is dear the sunbeams bless;
Like-giving breezes sweep the strand,
And death is soften’d by loves caress
“Warm kisses play on mother’s lips,
On her fond, tender breast awakening;
When round her neck the soft arm slips,
And bright eyes smile, all love partaking.
“Sweet in death for one’s native land,
Where all is dear the sunbeams bless;
Death is the breeze that sweeps the strand,
Without a mother, home, or love’s caress.”
10. After Maria Clara’s song and the crocodile incident, they went
ashore. They make merry in the cool, wooded meadow.
The meal over, Ibarra and Capitan Basilio played chess, while Maria
Clara and her friends played the “Wheel of Chance,” a game based on a
fortune-telling book. As the girls were enjoying their fortune telling game,
Padre Salvi came and tore the book into pieces, saying that it was a sin to
play such game. Shortly thereafter a sergeant and four soldier of the
Guardian Civil suddenly arrived, looking for Elias, who was hunted for (1)
assaulting Padre Damaso (2) throwing the alferez into a mud hole.
Fortunately Elias has disappeared, and the Guardian Civil went away with
empty-handed. During the picnic, Ibarra received a telegram from the
Spanish authorities notifying him of the approval of his donation of a
schoolhouse for the children of San Diego.
11. The next day Ibarra visited old Tasio to consult him on his pet
project about the schoolhouse. He saw the old man’s writings were written
in hieroglyphics. Tasio explained to him that he wrote in hieroglyphics
because he was writing for the future generations who would understand
them and say, “Not all were asleep in the night of our ancestors!”
Meanwhile San Diego was merrily preparing for its annual fiesta, in
honor of its patron saint San Diego de Alcala, whose feast day is the 11th of
November. On the eve of the fiesta, hundreds of visitors arrived from the
nearby towns, and there were laughter, music, exploding bombs, feasting
and moro-moro. The music was furnished by five brass bands (including
the famous Pagsanjan Band owned by the escribano Miguel Guevara) and
three orchestras.
12. In the morning of the fiesta there was a high mass in the church,
officiated by Padre Salvi. Padre Damaso gave the long sermon, in which he
expatiated on the evils of the times that were caused by certain men, who
having tasted some education spread pernicious ideas among the people.
After Padre Damaso’s sermon, the mass was continued by Padre
Salve. Elias quietly moved to Ibarra, who was kneeling and praying by
Maria Clara’s side, and warned him to be careful during the ceremony of
the laying of the cornerstone of the schoolhouse because there was a plot
to kill him.
13. Elias suspected that the yellowish man, who built the derrick, was a
paid stooge of Ibarra’s enemies. True to his suspicion, later in the day,
when Ibarra, in the presence of a big crowd, went down into the trench to
cement the cornerstone, the derrick collapsed. Elias, quick as a flash,
pushed him aside, thereby saving his life. The yellowish man was the one
crushed to death by the shattered derrick.
At the sumptuous dinner that night under a decorated kiosk, a sad
incident occurred. The arrogant Padre Damaso, speaking in the presence
of many guests, insulted the memory of Ibarra’s father. Ibarra jumped to
his seat, knocked down the fat friar with his fist, and then seized a sharp
knife. He would have killed the friar, were it not for the timely intervention
of Maria Clara.
14. Ibarra attack on Padre Damaso produced two results; (1) his
engagement to Maria Clara was broken and (2) he was excommunicated.
Fortunately, the liberal-minded governor general visited the town and
befriended Ibarra. He told the young man not to worry. He persuaded
Capitan Tiago to accept Ibarra as son-in-law and promised to see the
Archbishop of Manila to lift the ban of excommunication.
The fiesta over, Maria Clara became ill. She was treated by the quack
Spanish physician, Tiburcio de Espadaña, whose wife, a vain and vulgar
native woman, was a frequent visitor in Capitan Tiago’s house. This
woman had hallucinations of being a superior Castillan, and, although a
native herself, she looked down on her own people as inferior beings. She
added another “de” to her husband’s surname in order to more Spanish.
15. Thus she wanted to be called “Doctora Doña Victorina de los Reyes de De
Espadaña.” She introduced to Capitan Tiago’s young Spaniards, Don
Alfonso Linares de Espadaña, cousin of Don Tiburcio de Espadaña and
godson of Padre Damaso’s brother in law. Linares was a penniless and
jobless, fortune hunter who came to the Philippines in search of a rich
Filipino heiress. Both Doña Victorina and Padre Damaso sponsored his
wooing of Maria Clara, but the latter did not respond because she loved
Ibarra.
The story of Elias like that of Sisa, was a tale of pathos and tragedy.
He related it to Ibarra. Some 60 years ago, his grandfather, who was then a
young bookkeeper in a Spanish commercial firm in Manila, was wrongly
accused of burning the firm’s warehouse.
16. He was flogged in public and was left in the street, crippled and almost
died. His was pregnant, beg for alms and became a prostitute in order to
support her sick husband and their son. After giving birth to her second
son and the death of her husband, she fled, with her to sons to the
mountains.
Years later the first boy became a dreaded tulisan named Balat. He
terrorized the provinces. One day he was caught by the authorities. His
head was cut off and was hung from a tree branch in the forest. On seeing
this gory object, the poor mother (Elias’ grandmother) died.
Balat’s younger brother, who was by nature kindhearted, fled and
became a trusted laborer in the house of rich man in Tayabas. He fell in
love with the master’s daughter. The girl’s father, enraged by the romance,
investigated his past and found out the truth.
17. The unfortunate lover (Elias’ father) was sent to jail, while the girl gave
birth to twins, a boy (Elias) and a girl. Their rich grandfather took care of
them, keeping secret their scandalous origin, and reared them as rich
children. Elias was educated in the Jesuit College in Manila, while his sister
studied in La Concordia College. They lived happily, until one day, owing to
certain dispute over money matters, a distant relative exposed their
shameful birth. They were disgraced. An old male servant, whom they
used to abuse, was forced to testify in court and the truth came out that he
was their real father.
Elias and his sister left Tayabas to hide their shame in another place.
One day the sister disappeared. Elias roamed from place to place, looking
for her. He heard later that a girl answering to his sister’s description, was
found died on the beach of San Diego.
18. Since then, Elias lived a vagabond life, wandering from province to
province – until he met Ibarra.
Ibarra’s enemies left no stone unturned to bring about his ruin. They
engineered an attack on the barracks of the Guardia Civil, at the same time
warning the alferez to alert his men that night. They deceived the attackers
by telling them that the mastermind was Ibarra. So that when the attack
failed and the surviving attackers were caught. Ibarra was blamed for the
catastrophe.
Elias, learning of Ibarra’s arrest, burned all the papers that might
incriminate his friend and set Ibarra’s house on fire. Then he went to
prison and helped Ibarra escape. He and Ibarra jumped into a banca
loaded with sacate (grass). Ibarra stopped at the house of Capitan Tiago to
say goodbye to Maria Clara.
19. In the tearful last scene between the two lovers, Ibarra forgave Maria Clara
for giving up his letter to her to the Spanish authorities who utilized them
as evidence against him. On her part, Maria Clara revealed that those
letters were exchanged with a letter from her late mother, Pia Alba which
Padre Salvi gave her. From his letter, she learned that her real father was
Padre Damaso.
After bidding Maria Clara farewell, Ibarra returned to the banca. He
and Elias paddled up the Pasig River toward Laguna de Bay. A police boat,
with the Guardia Civil on board, pursued them as their banca reached the
lake. Elias told Ibarra to hide under the zacate. As the police boat was
overtaking the banca, Elias jumped into the water and swam swiftly
toward the shore. In this way, he diverted the attention of the soldiers on
his person, thereby giving Ibarra a chance to escape.
20. The soldier fired at the swimming Elias, who was hit and sank. The water
turned red because of his blood. The soldiers, thinking that they had killed
the fleeing Ibarra returned to Manila. Thus Ibarra was able to escape.
Elias seriously wounded, reached the shore and staggered into the
forest. He met a boy, Basilio, who was weeping over his mother’s dead
body. He told Basilio to make a pyre on which their bodies (his and Sisa)
were to be burned to ashes. It was Christmas eve, and the moon gleamed
softly in the sky. Basilio prepared the funeral pyre. As life’s breath slowly
left his body. Elias looked toward the east and murmured: “I die without
seeing the dawn brighten over my native land.” You, who have it to see,
welcome it! And forget not those who have fallen during the night.
21. The novel has an epilogue which recounts what happened to the
other characters. Maria Clara, out of her loyalty to the memory of Ibarra,
the man she truly loved, entered the Santa Clara nunnery. Padre Salvi left
the parish of San Diego and became a chaplain of the nunnery. Padre
Damaso was transferred to a remote province, but the next morning he
was found dead in his bedroom. Capitan Tiago the former genial host and
generous patron of the church became an opium addict and a human
wreck. Doña Victorina, still henpecking poor Don Tiburcio, had taken to
wearing eye-glasses because of weakening eyesight. Linares, who failed to
win Maria Clara’s affection, died of dysentery and was buried in Paco
cemetery.
22. The alferez, who successfully repulsed the abortive attack on the
barracks, was promoted major. He returned to Spain, leaving behind his
shabby mistress, Doña Consolacion.
The novel ends with Maria Clara, an unhappy nun in Santa Clara
nunnery – forever lost to the world.
