HISTORICAL SOURCE ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES

 It is a first-hand evidence written by the person

(Alvarez) who was in the said scene.
 Some of the events may not be true.
Source Material 1  The written account was documented by the
author itself.
 There is no information that leads to confusion.
 The author is present that day.

 Agoncillo wrote this with his own researches and

persepctive about the topic.
 The author of the account written was not
 Has many events he put on the book and also, present during the historical events.
Source Material 2 he had many sources and information.
 The information is not reliable and confusing.
 The account was made by historian and great
researcher.

From what I observed, the primary source just spoke about what had usually transpired at the Tejeros
Convention. The second source, though, was able to write about what had happened before, after and after
the Tejeros Convention. I've been able to find some variations in these accounts. It seems that Agoncillo had
narrated some mistake in the Tejeros convention that was false and unprofessional at all. Montenegro, for
example, argued with General Apoy in the primary source. But the second source wrote that Santiago Alvarez
Conclusion and Implication was the one who had a hot time with Montenegro. Agoncillo listed a number of items that were not even listed
in the primary resource. This might confuse people who are researching the history of the Philippines. I
assume that Agoncillo has been swept away by his feelings. It was too unfair for Agoncillo. There's a lot of
confusion as you've read the account extensively. Intelligently or unconsciously, the artist has drawn a warped
image of the characters. This is not to mention the inability of Agoncillo to paint his portrait of Bonifacio or the
memoirs of Santiago Alvarez; to test the memory of someone who was not in the first revolt.
