    Pio Valenzuela was a close associate of Andres Bonifacio and a member of the Katipunan's secret intelligence group. He witnessed both the Cry of Balintawak on August 26, 1896 and the Cry of Pugad Lawin on August 23, 1896, where the Katipunan members debated starting a revolution against Spanish rule. Although Valenzuela first reported the Cry taking place at Balintawak, President Macapagal later ordered the event be called the Cry of Pugad Lawin based on Valenzuela's memoir describing it occurring there on August 23rd instead.
