MAHAL NA KAPATID

(Sipi)

Ang Distrito ng Batangan ay nagtatag ng Gobyierno Provincial na kaniyang ipaiilalim sa aking pag-uutos alinsunod sa apat na sulat na aking natanggap. Nagpadala ako ng 20 sundalo at 25 gulukang taga Balara upang sila'y tulungan. Si Luciano ay ipinadala roon na kasama ang ilang mga sundalo upang tumulong sa pangkalahatang pagsalakay na kanilang gagawin doon sa walong bayan na sabay-sabay.

DEAR BROTHER

(Excerpt)

The Batangan District has established the Provincial Government which he will submit to my command in accordance with the four letters I have received. I sent 20 soldiers and 25 bolomen from Balara to help them. Luciano was sent there with some soldiers to assist in the general invasion that they would carry out there in eight towns at once.
