Handwritten quote: It is commonly said that the life of a good writer is best read in his works. —Autographic quotation from Rizal.
NOT BY RIZAL
Rizal-Mercado home, Kalamba. Here JosÉ Rizal was born. The family lost this building, along with most of their other property, in the land troubles. Governor-General Weyler sent soldiers to drive them out, though the first court had decided in their favor and an appeal to the Supreme Court had not yet been heard. Later, the upper part of the building was rebuilt. Rizal-Mercado home, Kalamba. Here JosÉ Rizal was born. The family lost this building, along with most of their other property, in the land troubles.
