Life
A nephew of the Commonwealth-era politician Jaime C. de Veyra, he was a member of the Sanghiran san Binisaya, an early 20th-century association dedicated to the promotion of Waray culture and the intellectualization of the Waray language and Waray literature. As an anthologist, de Veyra collected stories, riddles, poems and proverbs from all over the province of Leyte, while as an orthographer he compiled orthographic rules for the Waray language.
