From the December 12, 1901 New York Times:

“Washington–Cannibalism has appeared in the varied list of crimes charged against Filipinos by American military courts. According to the record of a court-martial convened in the Department of the Viscayas, Raymond Fonte, a native, found his working companion, Liberato Benliro, sleeping in his (Fonte’s) boat. He became enraged, killed the slumbering man with a blow of an oar, cut off his nose and ears, and, according to his own confession, cooked and ate part of the body. He was sentenced to be hanged at Capiz, Panay, on Dec. 13.”
