Today in Philippine History.
Elpidio Quirino was born in the Vigan Provincial Jail (now National Museum of the Philippines Ilocos Sur Branch) on 16 November 1890. His father was the prison warden. He served as Sixth President of the Philippines (1948-1953).
A quote from Quirino was reproduced on a postage stamp. I found out it was edited to make him more statesmanlike. The actual quote is on the slide.
