• The general demand for reform at the time had its religious as well as its political aspects,
and under the leadership of Father Burgos, the native clergy began to insist on their just
rights and to demand that duly trained secular priests (priests who do not belong to the
religious orders), most of whom were natives and who were discriminated against by the
religious authorities, be again permitted to hold parishes, a right they had once enjoyed but
which had been withdrawn.
• Father Gomez, a venerable old man in his eighties, was the first to be garroted. He was
followed by Father Zamora, not yet in his forties. Then came Father Burgos, the youngest,
only thirty-five, and most distinguished of the three. As his guilt was considered the gravest,
he was executed last.
• In his prison cell in Fort Santiago, shortly before his execution, he wrote the following
message (translated from Spanish) to the youth of the land:
• "Get educated. Use the schools of our country for as much as they can give. Learn from our
older men what they know. Then go abroad. If you can do no better, study in Spain, but
preferably study in freer countries. Read what foreigners have written about the Philippines
for their writings have not been censored. See in the museums of other lands what the
ancient Filipinos really were. Be a Filipino always, but an educated Filipino. Heretofore we
have had thinkers among us but their thoughts have died with them. Such progress as has
been made has been individual and not of the country. I have tried to pass on to you what I
received from my teachers. Do you now do the same for those who come after you."
