 An epidemic plagued the Province of Cavite in October 1882.Due to the severity of this case, "Don Juan Salcedo Y Mantilla de los Rios" who served as the Provincial Governor from 1880 to 1886, ordered that the feast of the "Virgen de la Soledad" be postponed until the whole Province has been freed from such disaster.At one night, when the Governor was sick and resting, he ordered his guards not to let anyone in his quarters.
