My Dear Brother,Our sadness at first has given way to endless joy in ourheart. Every time we receive your letters we thank the
Almighty that nothing untoward has happened to you,despite the great distance that separates us. Dont resentour failure to write you in the last mail. Even though wedont write you, we dont forget you a singe moment,especially in our prayers to the Lord and the Virgin. The
children also are always talking about you during theirplay. I often hear the three E., A., and Antonio, (1)discussing you. And when they hear your namementioned in our conversations, they at once ask if youare coming home and where you are. Icang is good,because she can say that you are at Barcelona; E. saysColombo, and Antonia, Paa;(2) and so the three oftenhave an argument; they cannot agree about you.
8/3/2019 Rizal Family and Friends

Mara, Pangoy, and Trining say that they willnot write you for the present because they
have nothing more to tell you, as we haveexhausted all the news. As you already know,here we lack news, so that our letters to youare devoid of news except family ones.However, the plague, that is said to be in
Manila, has not yet reached our town, thankGod. No one has yet died among our friends. T.Luis has a difficult ailment; he has gone toManila for treatment but he has not
improved. Icang has not yet become stoutsince you left; Chabeng is like a melon.

Our relatives, friends, and above all we, yourbrothers who can never forget you, send youour best regards. Father and Mother bless youat all times. Dont expect them to write youbecause their eyes are already weak. Dont failto include them in your prayers and ask theLord to grant them a long life and strength so
that on your return you may receive the tightembrace and blessing of our dearest parents.
Your sister who esteems you tenderly.

Calamba, Laguna26 September 1882
Dearest Brother,I have read that you want to hear the Tagaloglanguage, or our language, in order that youmay not forget your origin and we your
brothers. Papa always says, whenever we talkabout you, that perhaps you will stay there solong that you may not see each other before heleaves this world. I was going to write you longago, but I thought that my letter might reachBarcelona ahead of you. Moreover, every time I
pick up your letters, I cannot hold my tears,
8/3/2019 Rizal Family and Friends
27/53
especially the first one you wrote on yourdeparture in which you said that you passed
by here Monday morning when you weregoing down to Manila and as I was sleepingyou did not see me any more. And then Mamasays that you are carrying little money, sothat Im always thinking of how you are
getting along. For this reason, I want to sendyou a diamond ring and write me to whom Ishould send it, so that it may reach you there.We are well, thank God; I have no ailment ofany kind; what I dont know is whether I shall
get over the difficulties ahead.

With regard to the town fiesta, what I can tellyou is that Sra. Julia with the whole family
and others from Sta. Cruz stayed here a longtime -- two weeks. Aunt Betang did not comebecause she had guests she could not leavebehind. Ill write you longer later because thebearer is in a hurry.
Your sister who loves you dearly.

because Spanish legation thereoffered him a lucrative job.
