[1] In a letter from James A. LeRoy, of June 27, 1906. [↑]

[2] J. A. LeRoy: Philippine Life. [↑]

[3] Chief among these men may be cited Francisco Giner de los Rios, of the Madrid University, who has established the Free Institution of Teaching in Madrid for the training of teachers. He follows principally American methods. Both Church and State have opposed him, but he has persevered and his institution has had good results. [↑]

[4] Apropos of the “Filipino soul,” James A. LeRoy says, in the letter cited, ante, note 118, “No Filipino on earth, if pinned down, could tell what the ‘Filipino soul’ is today, as Tavera hints.” [↑]
