leadership, the meeting began at 10 oclock in

 Conclusion
From the eyewitness accounts presented, there is indeed marked
disagreement among historical witnesses as to the place and time of the
disagreement among historical witnesses as to the place and time of the
occurrence of the Cry . Using primary and secondary sources, four places
have been identified: Balintawak, Kangkong, Pugad Lawin, And Bahay Toro,
while date vary: 23, 24, 25 or 26 August 1896.

Valenzuela’s Account should be read with caution: He once told a Spanish

investigator that the “Cry” happened in Balintawak on wednesda, 26 August
1896. Much later, he wrote in his Memoirs of the Revolution that it happened
at Pugad Lawin on 23 August 1896. Such inconsistencies in accounts should
always be seen as a red flag when dealing with primary sources.

According to Guerrero, Encarnacio, And Villegas, All the Places are in

Balintawak, Then part of Caloocan, now, in Quezon Cit. As for the dates,
Bonifacio and his troops may have been moving from one place to another to
avoid being located by the Spanish Government, which could explain why
there are several accounts of the Cry.
