Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Philippine Islands, 1493-1898, Vol. 41: Explorations by Early Navigators, Descriptions of the Islands and Their Peoples, Their History and Records of the Catholic Missions; 1691-1700
With the absence from Masinloc of the three loyal chiefs above-mentioned, treason shows its head in that village, its immediate outbreak being due to an inopportune rebuke administered by the prior to a chief who had neglected to attend mass. The reli gious and loyal natives are besieged in the convent, but escape by stratagem, by seizing a boat in which some natives have come to the village. Reaching the village of Bagac, they meet there the three loyal chiefs who are returning from Manila, and with their aid and that of thirty men gathered by the prior of Bagac, they recover the village of Masinloc from the insurgents. The majority of the inhabit ants receive pardon, but three of the ringleaders are put to death.
