Calbayog's other treasures

Let me share some pictures that i took of one of the carrozas during the last Good Friday procession. My apologies for the quality of the pictures, these were taken using my mobile phone.

These pictures are that of the image of Christ scourged at the Pillar. It is under the care of the family of Virginia Gomez. My friend (Atty.) Edwin Gomez once told me that this statue is more than 100 years old and was brought from Mexico by a priest who was assigned in Calbayog. This is what's left of the four images that were hidden on a ricefield or cogonland somewhere in Cabayog during the last World War.
