I rise early—at five —visit my plants, feed the chickens, awaken my people, and put them in movement. At half-past seven we breakfast with tea, pastries, cheese, sweet meats. Later It reat my poor patients who come to my land; I dress, I goto the town in my [canoe], treat the people there, and return at 12 when my luncheon awaits me.”
• School for boys - Rizal took in six local boys, whom he described as poor and intelligent, and built a school for them. Josephine Bracken watched over the students and made sure they did their homework when Rizal was away.

If he successfully returned with the cane despite the provocations, he was welcomed to the school.
