RIZAL then went over to Manila with his sister, and on arrival there certain papers were found in that lady's baggage" which constituted 'an offence against the law of the place. Here occurs the only dis- crepancy between the accounts of Señor ORTIZ and of our private Informants-the latter say that the documents were planted by sples of the Ecclesiastics, the former denies it. The Immediate connection.of the Bishop matters little-the Church as a body is accused, not any Individual. If RIZAL really did take the papers into Manila, we, have done with him, for it would be an imprudent act such as would deprive him of any right to pose as a moderate and honest patriot. But if the papers were planted by sples, then the Church is guilty of a gross outrage such as places its leaders on a level with the treacherous savages of the South Carolinas in the days of cannibalism, and any civilised man would be justified, failing legal readress, in making war to the knife, a war of extermination, against people who practise this hideous and deadly cunning.
