Study Notes

Rizal's Exile in Dapitan

Dapitan was chosen for Rizal's exile due to its geographical remoteness, making it difficult for him to connect with supporters and engage in revolutionary activities.
Rizal arrived in Dapitan on July 17, 1892.
Fr. Pablo Pastell, a Jesuit Superior, sent a letter to Fr. Obach outlining conditions for Rizal to live in the parish convent:
- Publicly retract errors about religion
- Perform church rites
- Make a general confession of his past life
- Conduct himself as a Spanish subject and man of religion
- Act against revolution
Rizal did not agree to these conditions and therefore lived with the Spanish commandant, Ricardo Carnicero.
Rizal won a lottery with Captain Carnicero and Francisco Equilor (a businessman) on September 21, 1892.
The total lottery winnings were 6,200 pesos.
Rizal gave 2,000 pesos to his father and 200 pesos to Jose Basa in Hong Kong.
The 6,200 pesos is equivalent to roughly 3 million pesos today.
Rizal used his lottery winnings to build:
- A house
- A school
- A clinic
- A land near the town plaza
- Agricultural land in Talisay
Rizal's houses included:
- Casa Redonda (The Round House): An octagonal stilt house that served as quarters for Rizal's students and as a clinic.
- Casa Cuadrada (The Square House): Located at the base of a hill, it served as a workshop and secondary dormitory for Rizal's students.
A water dam was also present within Rizal's property.
Rizal made contributions to the sciences, as seen in his correspondence with scientists and professors in Europe:
- Draco Rizali (flying lizard)
- Apogonia Rizali (small beetle)
- Rhacophorus Rizali (rare type of frog)
