present during the event

• Santiago Alvarez”s Account


It was found out that Alvarez was not an actual participant of the event,
he was in Cavite at the time, he was just narrating the information that
he gathered from other katipuneros, this is his version of the first Cry
• Guillermo Masangkay’s Account 5
• In 1932, Guillermo Masangkay, a friend and fellow Katipunero of Andres
Bonifacio, recounted his experiences as a member of Andres Bonifacio, recounted his
experiences as a member of the revolutionary movement.
• In an interview with the Sunday Tribune magazine, masangkay said that the First Cry
happened in Balintawak on August 26,1896. In the first decade of American Rule, it
was his account that was used by the government and civic officials to fix the date and
place of the First cry which was capped with the erection of the “Monument to the
Heroes of 1896” in the place.
• However, in an interview published in the newspaper Bagong Buhay on
August 26, 1957, Masangkay changed his narrative stating that the revolution began
on August 23, 1896 similar to the assertion of Dr. Pio Valenzuela. But Masangkay’s
date was later changed again when his granddaughter, Soledad Buehler-Borromeo, cited
sources, including the Masangkay paper, that the original date was August 26.
