1. "Slavery was banned in Mexico, but Mexico did allow indentured servitude. White slave owners who moved to Texas simply declared their slaves as 'indentured servants.'
Texan colonists were legally citizens of Mexico. To get a land grant, one had to renounce American citizenship and promise to become a Catholic, the official religion of Mexico.
Santa Anna suspended the Constitution and tried to disarm the Texans, much as King George had the original 13 colonies. The war of Texas Independence had nothing whatsoever to do with slavery."

3. "If they overpower us, we fall a sacrifice at the shrine of our country, and we hope posterity and our country will do our memory justice."
Colonel William Barrett Travis, The Alamo - February 25, 1836
A Tribute to the Alamo Garrison
By Donna Trammell Mathis,
descendant of Burke Trammell, Alamo Defender
Rise up ye stealthy warriors
And yield your hatchets high
For the enemy is upon us
And they are drawing nigh.
Man the cannon, load your pistols
And shoot your trusty guns
For the enemy is upon us
And we will never run.
The battle is determined
But we will not retreat
For the enemy is upon us
And we know not defeat.
The deed is done our fate is sealed
We take our final breath
For the enemy is upon us
Shout! Victory or Death!
