Today in Philippine History (Philatelic Edition):
AUGUST 22, 1896
Andres Bonifacio and his men proceeded to Pugad Lawin after a stopover in Kangkong where they were given food and shelter by Apolonio Samson, a Katipunero.
A day earlier, the group were in Balintawak where Bonifacio changed the Katipunan code after the Spaniards were able to decipher it.
Bonifacio’s trek to Pugad Lawin, the site of the Katipunan general assembly began on August 19, 1896.
Although hunted by the Spaniards, he and his brother Procopio, Teodoro Plata, Aguedo del Rosario and Emilio Jacinto were able to evade the Spanish sentries.
