In Dapitan, Rizal expanded his reform efforts by building a school for young boys,
a hospital, and a water supply system. He also taught agriculture and worked on
agricultural projects such as abaca, a plant used to create rope. When a yellow fever
outbreak struck Cuba in 1895, Rizal volunteered to serve as an army doctor. His
request was approved by Governor-General Ramon Blanco. A hidden gang known as
Katipunan had initiated a violent uprising by August 1896. Rizal was jailed on his way to
Cuba, despite the fact that he had nothing to do with the revolution. He was returned to
Manila and charged with rebellion, sedition, and conspiracy, all of which he was found
guilty of (José Rizal Life Timeline, n.d.). Then, he was executed.
