11. based on the discussion and evidences provided, did Rizal at his final days
retract?
Explain and justify.
- Many claims and evidence suggest that Dr. Jose P. Rizal retracted in his final days
and died as a Catholic. But I believe Rizal did not retract. Despite the evidence that
Rizal did sign the retraction letter, the fact that he asked to change the statement
written on the template from “I abominate Masonry as a society reprobated by the
Church” to “I abominate Masonry as the enemy of the Church and reprobated by the
same Church”. The retraction document was more of Rizal taking moral courage to
recognize his mistakes rather than actual retraction.
12. Why do we need to know the exact location of the First Cry of the Katipunan?
Based on the evidence provided which of the locations do you think the actual events
took place?
- If I were to be asked, we need to know where did the exact location of the First Cry
even though there is a contention in the place and date of where did it happen, as
long as there are possible places and dates with evidence that are given the
presumption of where did the cry took place. I think the First Cry took place at Pugad
Lawin because aside from the recognition of the National Historical Commission of
the Philippines, there are numerous evidence claiming that the First Cry did happen
in Pugad Lawin.

11. Why is Aguinaldo's government considered as the First Philippine government
when Bonifacio's revolutionary government was already in existence?
- Because the Katipunan that Bonifacio lead is a secret society. It cannot be known to
the public. After the independence was achieved, Tejeros Convention was held to
reconcile the differences between Aguinaldo's and Bonifacio's organizations. In the
convention, a decision that the Katipunan should be dissolved and a revolutionary
government establish was decided and after that, Elections were held for its officers:
Aguinaldo was elected as President, and Bonifacio was elected as Director of the
Interior. That made the first Philippine government and Aguinaldo is recognized as
the first President of the Philippines.
12. If you can nominate one national hero who will it by and why is he/she worthy of

- My answer would be common, and it would be Dr. Jose P. Rizal. He is worthy of the

Independence in the shadow. His incomparable novels made such an impact on our
history. The reason for his death is already enough for him to be worthy of being
called our National Hero.
