Tigley who disclosed the deception of the bananatrunk warriors and the subsequent construction of the stone-tower; Mrs. Eufrosina G. Gadicho her reference to the sequence of Tenientes del Barrio within the Gabornes clan; lgmedio Gacho relating the participation of Lawa-an in the Balangiga Massacre; and Mrs. Clotilde G.
