Rafael María de Mendive dies.

He was born in Havana on October 24, 1821.  He was one of the most illustrious personalities of the XIX century in Cuba. Teacher of José Martí, he instilled in his disciple a deep love for the homeland. For his adherence to the independence struggle he was exiled, but even far from his homeland he continued to long to see Cuba free from the Spanish colonial yoke. He collaborated with several newspapers and magazines to finally conclude his law studies in 1864. Later he founded and directed the San Pablo College. He was undoubtedly a fervent patriot and used to try to transmit these feelings to his students.  Between Mendive and Martí there was a great identification.
