Nagpahanap ako sa Caramoan nin antigong gantahan o litrohan man lamang, alagad sagkod ngunyan dai pang resulta an paghanap. Kadakol
I requested from Caramoan to look for that antiquated Gantahan or even the Litrohan, but unfortunately, the search result has no clear indication yet. There were just a lot of stories elicited, pointing here and there, naming whom and who treasured those things I am looking for. Lip service becomes a convenient finder, instead of jumping at once to search every nook and cranny, brave the dust and cobwebs which were the usual longtime companion of such treasure chest.
Sabagay, sa gulping estorya naparahay man ta na-swertehan kong madangog an ngaran, an ngaran kan sarong “Panday”, an de-kalibreng karpintero na bantogan na iyong kag-panday kan mga gantahan, litro, medyahan, un-kuartohan, ultimo an karosan, na nagserbing reglamento nin komersyadong takadan sa banwa kan Caramoan.
At any rate, there was blessing in disguise with those lengthy accounts. I heard the name, the name of the master carpenter, who is said to be widely acknowledged as the one who crafted such boxes which became the measuring standard in Caramoan trade.
Sa mga masunod na aldaw, isusurat ko an ngaran asin recuerdo
Through the perpetual library on the cyberspace, I wish to pay tribute and preserve our memory about this man whose humble name is worthy to be engraved on the stone tablet of time. Here, his' is a monument that is physically indestructible, much more durable, undetachable and unbreakable, unlike his tombstone laid upon his graveyard, if any.
Abangan. (Await.)
