My dear brother,
It has been four years and a half that we have not seen
each other or have we addressed one another in writing
or orally. I do not believe this is due to lack of affection
either on my part or yours but because knowing each
other so well, we had not need of words to understand
each other.
Your brother,
José Rizal
