- Bonifacio scheduled a general assembly of the Katipunan for Aug. 24, 1896, the Feast of San Bartolome, in Malabon.
- Bonifacio and his men were in Balintawak on August 19.
- They left Balintawak for Kangkong on August 21, and on the afternoon of August 22 they proceeded to Pugad Lawin.
- August 23, in the yard of Juan Ramos, son of Melchora Aquino, better known as “Tandang Sora,” the Katipuneros listened to the rousing speech of Bonifacio, tore their cedulas, and vowed to fight.
- Convinced the National Historical Commission to move the traditional Aug. 26 date to Aug. 23 and transfer the historical site from Balintawak to Pugad Lawin.
Pugad Lawin
- In Wenceslao Emilio’s fivevolume compilation of historical documents, Archivo del Bibliofilo Filipino, Valenzuela’s signed testimony before Spanish interrogators dated September 1896 stated that the Cry was held in Balintawak on Aug. 26, 1896.
- Years later, in his memoirs published in English after World War II, Valenzuela stated that the Cry was actually held in Pugad Lawin on Aug. 23, 1896.
- Stated that "hindi sa Balintawak nangyari ang unang sigaw ng paghihimagsik na kinalalagian ngayon ng bantayog, kung di sa pook na kilala sa tawag na Pugadlawin."
- Valenzuela memoirs (1964, 1978) states that the Cry took place on 23 August at the house of Juan Ramos at Pugad Lawin. The NHI influenced by Valenzuela’s memoirs, in 1963, upon the NHI endorsement, President Diosdado Macapagal ordered that the Cry be celebrated on 23 August and that Pugad Lawin be recognized as its site.
