The Pacification of Batangas was an operation initiated by General Adna Chaffee following the Balangiga massacre incident. General hostilities in the Philippine-American War had largely ceased following the capture of Emilio Aguinaldo, president of the insurgent Philippine Republic, and his publication of a manifesto on April 19, 1901 acknowledging and accepting U.S. sovereignty throughout the Philippines.[1]

Rather than surrender, General [Miguel Malvar]] assumed command of of Filipino forces in southern Luzon, reorganized them, renamed the combined armed forces as "Army of Liberation"" and continued pursuing guerilla warfare against Americans. In September, in an action that has come to be known as the Balangiga massacre, guerilla forces in Samar, assisted by townspeople in a surprise uprising, inflicted 54 killed and 18 wounded on a U.S. Army company garrisoning that town.[2] Following this, General James Franklin Bell was tasked with the pacification of southern Luzon.[citation needed]got this far
