On board the Djemnah, China Sea
Mr. Fernando Canon
2, 3o Rambla de Canaletas
Barcelona, Spain
Djemnah, China Sea, 29 July 1887
Dear Classmate and Friend,
Tomorrow we arrive at Saigon where we change boats. I think I will arrive at Manila on the 5th or 4th August and at my town a day after. Instead of 10 by 100, I believe it ought to be 20 by 100. I have not been seasick yet. Farewell, may you be happy; I hope one day you will write a book: Noli me tangere x ∞.[1]
Your friend,
Rizal
Greetings to all.
