Years: 1864 - 1875
The liberal period in the Philippines comes to an abrupt end in 1871.
Friars and other conservative Spaniards in Manila manage to engineer the replacement of de la Torre by a more conservative figure, Rafael de Izquierdo, who, following his installation as governor in April 1871, reimposes the severities of the old regime.
He is alleged to have boasted that he came to the islands "with a crucifix in one hand and a sword in the other."
Liberal laws are rescinded, and the enthusiastic Filipino supporters of de la Torre come under political suspicion.
