Chapter 31

Posted by Develos

A high official, who believes Basilio is innocent, attempts to convince the governor-general to release the youth.  His efforts, however, are in vain.  The governor-general responds, insisting that it is necessary for innocent people to suffer to restore order and to teach the people to submit to authority once and for all.  Because of this, the high official lets go of his office and returns to Spain.
