In his honor, Captain Tiago a family friend threw a welcome home party, attended by friars and other prominent figures. One of the guests, former San Diego curates Fray Damaso Vardolagas, belittled and detracts Ibarra. These chapters tells about the insecurities and greedy to their powers like example Fray Damaso and I think the Fray in our modern life now are the government and rich people. According to Tenyente Guevara, Don Rafael was unjustly accused of being a heretic, an allegation brought forth by Fray Damaso because of Don Rafael's non-participation in the Sacraments, such as Confession and Mass. Fr. Damaso's animosity towards Ibarra's father is complicated by another incident when Don Rafael helped out in a fight between a tax collector and a child, with the former's death being blamed on him, although it was not deliberate. Suddenly, all those who thought ill of him surfaced with additional complaints. He was imprisoned, and just when the matter was almost settled, he died of sickness in jail.
