THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH. SATURDAY, JUNE 20, 1931.
DR. JOSE P. RIZAL.
HONGKONG'S PART IN PHILIPPINE HISTORY,
By J. T. Martin.]
The twentieth day of June is the birthday of Dr. Jose Protasio | Rizal, Philippine hero and martyri and undoubtedly ono of the greatest of Orientals. Born of humble parentage in 1861 in a
small Philippine town, he early showed signs of genfus and dis tinguished in various arte and sciences, rising later to dizzy heights of fame and greatness. Physician, part, novellat, painter, sculptor and travellir—in all these careers ho was master and peer,, but it was his noble death, his martyrdom, which gave is name a lasting lustre and secured for him a place among the world's im- mortals. Protesting his innocence to the last, for he committed no ather crime than that of pure love of country, he faced the Spanish firing squad in Manila on the morning of December 30, 1896, with normal pulse and a calm countenance.
He willingly poured his blood to tinge, na he said, the awaited aurora of his suffering country; his execution meant the birth of a new, awakened Filipino nation; his physical destruction hastened the resurrection of his people's del hopes and the recovery of their burlet Eden, their lost para- dline.
The advent of this day serves also to recall the association and connexion which the island of Hongkong has with the moat stir- ring episodes of Philippine history. For in this land Rizal once stay- ud, pondered and meditated deep- ly, and who knows but that the great and inspired thoughts he imbibed here found their way later to the pages of his masterpiece, | the "Noli Me Tangere" (Touch Me) Not), one of the most powerful in- dictments against tyranny over penned by man. Here, alao, with-i in the shadows of the majestic) Peak, other patriots like Ponce, Lopez Jaena, Basa. Del Pilar, Tavera and Hidalgo used to meet and gather, to draw fresh couraguj and Inspiration from the mighty Anglo-Saxon inatitutions which
are the pride of every Briton; and in the nut distant past, two Fili pinos with henris of stone, General Ricarte and Vicente Soto, lived here in self-exile. It was in long- kong where Aguinaldo and his staff concluded with Primo Rivera of Spain, the famous Paet of Blakus-Bato; but Jater, aided by Consul Wildman and Admiral. Dewey, he went back to Manila and gave the final blow to Spanish dominion.
de
A romantic chapter which links Hongkong with Philippine history should not be forgotten. Here Rizal met and wooed the pretty Josephine Bracken, a Hongkong lady, and they were later married. Josephine proved to be the worthy wife of a havo, for, during Rizal's exile in Mindanao, she braved many, dangers serving as the con- fidential messenger of her husband
