Today is Texas Independence
Day! 184 years ago, a group of 59
delegates convened, drew up and signed the Texas Declaration of Independence
thus declaring the independence of the Republic of Texas from Mexico.
When a government has ceased to protect the lives,
liberty and property of the people, from whom its legitimate powers are
derived, and for the advancement of whose happiness it was instituted, and so
far from being a guarantee for the enjoyment of those inestimable and
inalienable rights, becomes an instrument in the hands of evil rulers for their
oppression.
When the Federal Republican Constitution of their
country, which they have sworn to support, no longer has a substantial
existence, and the whole nature of their government has been forcibly changed,
without their consent, from a restricted federative republic, composed of
sovereign states, to a consolidated central military despotism, in which every
interest is disregarded but that of the army and the priesthood, both the
eternal enemies of civil liberty, the everready minions of power, and the usual
instruments of tyrants. . . . . . . .
They met at
Washington-on-the-Brazos and chose David Burnet as provisional president and
Sam Houston as commander in chief of all Texan forces.
David Burnet
Texas remained a Republic
from October 2, 1835, to February 19, 1846, when it became the 28th
state.
Okay – history lesson over.
Y’all have a good day now!

Happy Texas Independence Day! When it did become a US state, I bet Texas wasn't thrilled to have parts of its territory lopped off to join other states, was it?
ReplyDeleteThey are showing off the guns at the Alamo today. They particularly showed off a long rifle from Pennsylvania/Kentucky. It was a very elegant rifle. They also fired a few of them.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that!
