where he remained until 1598, when he went to
the Philippines. He was appointed provincial reader, and retained
that office until 1603, when he returned to Spain as commissary
procurator. After three years he went again to the islands, laden
with honors; and after ministering for two years at Bacolor, was
elected provincial in 1608, governing until 1610, when on account of
the deposition of Fray Lorenzo de Leon, he went to Spain to give a
report of that matter. He was appointed bishop of Puerto Rico in 1614
and took possession of his see in 1615. In 1619 he became archbishop
of Santo Domingo. He died in 1620. See Perez's _Catalogo_, p. 57.

[5] Fray Hernando Guerrero, a native of Alcaraz, professed in the
convent of San Felipe el Real in 1588. After his arrival at the
Philippines, he labored in various Bisayan villages (1599-1613). In
1613, he went to Spain, whence he returned in 1617. He went again
to Spain and Rome in 1625. In 1628 he was appointed bishop of Nueva
Segovia, and, in 1635, archbishop of Manila. His term in the latter
office was marked by contests with the Jesuits, and he was finally
excommunicated by a secular priest, and then exiled to Mariveles by
the governor, Corcuera--only leaving that island on signing certain
conditions. He died July 1, 1641, at seventy-five years of age. See
Perez's _Catalogo_, pp. 48, 49; and Buzeta and Bravo's _Diccionario_,
ii, p. 275.

[6] Innumerable are the names which might be cited here of religious
who have given proofs of the keenest patriotism, defending the islands
with the cross in one hand and the sword in the other: Father Agustin
de San Pedro, a discalced Augustinian, called "Father Captain" for his
prowess against the Mindanao Moros; the no less famous Father Pascual
Ibanez de Santa Filomena, Augustinian Recollect, who died while bravely
assaulting the fort of Abisi, Jolo, in 1857; the Jesuit, Father Ducos;
the fathers of all the orders, especially the Augustinians in the war
with the English; the Augustinian fathers who accompanied General
Malcampo on his expedition to Jolo in 1875; Father Ramon Zueco,
Recollect, of imperishable memory, besides innumerable others.--_Coco_.

Continuing his note, Father Coco quotes from Father Fabian Rodriguez
in _Revista Agustiniana_ for January 5, 1886, the remarkable defense
and military record of the Augustinian Father Julian Bermejo in Cebu,
from the latter part of the eighteenth century until his death in 1851.
