Hi drac:

I enlarged your image and it appears to read "Lucban." That area should clean up once you get it, and you can read it more clearly. Picture attached.

General Vicente Lukban was born in Labo, Camarines Norte which is in the Bicol region of southern Luzon. He was governor of Samar and led the military responses to U.S. aggression in Samar, mostly a series of guerilla actions. He was captured on April 27, 1902 and died in 1916.
