and admiration for the beauty of nature.

remarkable woman of good character and fine
culture.
On her lap, Rizal learned at the age of three the

encouraged him to write poems. To lighten the

her sons imagination, she related many stories.

Aunts house- where Jose lodged
Maestro Justiniano Aquino Cruz. Joses formal teacher
The school was in the house of the teacher, which was a
small nipa hut about 30 meters from the home of Joses
aunt.
Paciano knew the teacher quite well because he had been
a pupil under him before.
He introduced Jose to the teacher, after which he
departed to return to Calamba.

Jose challenged Pedro to a fight. The latter readily accepted,
thinking that he could easily beat the Calamba boy who was
smaller and younger.
In succeeding days he had other fights with the boys of
Bian. He was not quarrelsome by nature, but he never ran
away from a fight.
First School Brawl
In the afternoon of his first day in school, when the teacher was having his siesta, Jose
met the bully, Pedro. He was angry at this bully for making fun of him during his
conversation with the teacher in the morning.
Jose challenged Pedro to a fight. The latter readily accepted, thinking that he could
easily beat the Calamba boy who was smaller and younger.
The two boys wrestled furiously in the classroom, much to the glee of their classmates.
Jose, having learned the art of wrestling from his athletic Tio Manuel, defeated the
bigger boy. For this feat, he became popular among his classmates.

After the class in the afternoon, a classmate named Andres Salandanan challenged him
to an arm-wrestling match. They went to a sidewalk of a house and wrestled with their
arms. Jose, having the weaker arm, lost and nearly cracked his head on the sidewalk.

In succeeding days he had other fights with the boys of Bian. He was not quarrelsome
by nature, but he never ran away from a fight.

BEST STUDENT IN SCHOOL END OF BINAN SCHOOLING

In academic studies, Jose beat all Bian boys.
He surpassed them all in Spanish, Latin, and
other subjects.
Some of his older classmates were jealous of
his intellectual superiority. They wickedly
squealed to the teacher whenever Jose had a
fight outside the school, and even told lies to
discredit him before the teachers eyes.
Consequently the teacher had to punish Jose.
December 17,1870- Jose left binan
Before Jose left, he received a letter
from his sister saturnina informing
him that he will be riding a talim on
his way back home
Talim- the steamer that Jose rode
