not reject [the Jesuits], he persisted in his errors contrary to the Catholic faith.… However, at the last

recanted his statements against the Church and to have returned to the Catholic faith.

B. IDENTIFY THE PROFESSIONS/WORK OF RIZAL DURING HIS EXILE IN DAPITAN,

Rizal’s profession during the time he was exiled in Dapitan were being a doctor, a surveyor, an
engineer, a teacher, and a farmer. Rizal had a lot of time when he was exiled so he had the opportunity
to live as a role model citizen. Rizal became a doctor and during his time in Dapitan he helped a lot of
people and some of his patients where poor there were times, he never received payments. Rizal also
plotted the relief map of Mindanao at St. James Church in Dapitan. Rizal also helped constructing the
famous Linao spring and he also built a school for boys in Talisay. He also taught the farmers and
fishermen the modern method of farming and fishing. He also became a farmer as stated in a letter to his
sister, Lucia stating that not everyone can be doctors and there should be people cultivating the soil.

C. WRITE A 10-15 SENTENCES SUMMARY ABOUT RIZAL'S TRIAL AND DEATH.

Colonel Francisco Olive, an Advocate of the Spanish Military Tribunal, was designated as the
assigned Judge to call Rizal on November 20, 1896. The preliminary inquiry began, and the probe lasted
five days. He was criticized for being the revolution's leader by instilling revolt among the masses and
forming illegal groups. Rizal, as predicted, was denied the opportunity to question his witnesses. He
could only pick his counsel from a list of young Spanish policemen who were not lawyers. He picked
Lt. Luis Taviel de Andrade, who was Rizal's bodyguard when he initially returned home. During the
inquiry, he was provided with two types of evidence: documentary and testimonial. There were fifteen
papers against Rizal and 10 testifying witnesses. Lt. Taviel de Andrade made every attempt to argue
Rizal's innocence, but despite how blatant it was, Rizal was judged guilty. Rizals trial and death is merely
an allegations against him. He is innocent until his death because he cited some his explanations in his
side that he never meant to create revolutionary group against the government though he is associated
with Katipuneros. If he's guilty then he has the chance to hide but instead he built his house and built
hospital in Dapitan. He has good intention to improve the country through civilization but not in
rebellious way. Even in his last day before the execution he wasnt given the privilege to hug his mother.
