OK here is the final reading: (I HATE Gothic script!

):

"Alay ng kamaganakan ng kgg. Gral. LUkban sa mga pamunuan ng kaniang kokba. Dito sa Lukban ika 25 ng Agosto ng 1898"

My father (full blood Tagalog) translated it fully:

"Dedicated by the relatives of the most respected General Lukban to the officers of his troops. Here at Lukban on August 25, 1898"

Now all I need to do is figure out what this event was and the history behind it. If anyone has any leads or information please post here or email me at battara@hotmail.com. As you all can see, this is a project in process.
