• On the last days of October, Don Santiago de los
Santos popularly known as Capitan Tiago
announces a dinner at his home, generating
excitement and gossip throughout Binondo and the
Walled City. His reputation for hospitality attracts
many eager guests.
• The setting is a large, somewhat imperfect house on Calle Anloague, facing
the Binondo River. The narrative highlights the house's resilience amid
colonial neglect and describes the multifaceted uses of the river.
• Guests are invited to enter without formalities,
drawn by the sounds of the orchestra and the
clinking of dishes. The narrator notes the importance
of appearances in Filipino society.
• The spacious dining room, called the caida, is

prepared for dinner, featuring an elaborately
decorated table, which creates a sense of anticipation
and anxiety among guests.
• The room is adorned with religious paintings that contrast the
festive atmosphere, hinting at deeper societal themes and possibly
reflecting the host's awareness of his guests' characters.
• Guests gather in the sala, separated by
gender, with women engaging in minimal
conversation. The atmosphere is stifled
and formal, revealing social dynamics
among the attendees.
• The guests arrived in the evening, greeted by Tiya
Isabel the cousin of Capitan Tiago. Padre Damaso,
Padre Sibyla, Lieutenant Guevarra (captain of the
civil guard) and a foreigner with red hair from
another country are some of the important guests
that come to the gathering.
• There is a heated discussion among them
regarding the ethics of the Filipino culture, Tobacco
monopoly and the Spaniards harsh insults against
the Filipinos. It was also revealed that Padre Damaso
has been serving as a priest of San Diego for 20

new guests, shifting the focus of the gathering
and providing a comedic relief to the earlier
tension.
