Our c untry is young hut its heroes are as glo riously brave as those f any land, and it is because f them that the stars and stripes float today over one of I ho greatest nat ions of earth. San Antonio, Tex., Fob 2 '9 5 “Wo we t out to San Pedro springs and to the old Alamo Thursday. Ban Pedro springs is a very pretty place, several very large springs, a small lake and a zoolog ical garden. The Alamo is perhaps the most interesting place in the United States or the world; not in its beauty or grandeur, but its his tory, for in the "Id Alamo took place one of the bloodiest and most brutal massacres that history has ever recorded ; even Thermopylae had her messengers of defeat, the Alamo had none The Alamo was built in 1718 by the Spaniards, be ing one "f the line of Missions that was built to protect this country (which at that time was claimed by Spain) and to christianize the Indians and make them subject to Spain All of these Missions were built out of stone and were combinations of fortress and church. There are three of these missions near this place; San Jose mission is about f iur miles from here and the Mis sion Concepcion about two miles below; but the Alamo is the most historic of all, except, possibly the olio at Goliad. 1 will give you as near as I can remember the story told me by the old man who acts as guide and relates to every man the horrors of the massacres of Travis, Bowie, rockett and Bonham with 180 brave men who preferred to “cross the line” and die like the heroes Uiey were, rather than surrender and be shot like dogs. Travis was in command of the I exans at that ime and was surrounded by three houeand Mexicans and Travis had opt them at buy for ten days, and n March 3rd, the Mexic ns kept p a terrible cannonade all dy i ltd just about sunset the firing ■used and Santa Anna ordered is men to withdraw some distance Torn the Alamo. Travis knew this ; is the lul before the real storm inti he ordered his men to parade in single file. Then followed .me 1 ihe grandest scenes history re '• r«is In a voice trembling with 'motion Travis told his men that death was inevitable and made a long speech to them and when lie had finished, the silence of the grave reigned over all. Drawing his sword he draw a line in froti of his men and cried : “Those who wish to die like heroes «nd patriots come over to me,” and in a few minutes every man but one had crossed. Even the wounded had dragged themselves across the fatal lino. Colonel Bowie was sick with fever and was too weak to walk but he said “Lads, carry my cot acr< ss the line.” On March 6th, between midnight and day. an or der was given by Santa Anna to take the fort at any sacrifice, and the Alamo was surrounded hv Mex i leans. Just after midnighy amidst : the roar of cannon and the trum i pets sounding the awful notes of the “deguello,” signifying no quar ter, Santa Anna's troops advanced to the attack. The Texans fought like demons; killing them as they scaled the walls, as they leaped 'ithin, as they raised their weap ns and as they used them, and as they killed their companions. The court ran with blood but as long as a hand was strong enough to use a weapon no Texan fell una venged. Crockett left a score of bodies around him to 6how his work; Bowie, too weak to riselrom bed, shot two fiends who were pre paring to kill him. Every apart ment was a battlefield, every room a fortress where death alone was the conqueror. Death and Santa Anna held the place finally, and by order of Santa Anna the bodies of the Texans were collected in a huge pile and burned, while the dead Mexicans were taken to the cemetery for burial. As the Sab bath sun sank slowly in the west, the sm ke from that luneral pyre of heroes descended to heaven. From that sacred fire sprang the flames that lighted all Texas, that consumed many Mexican lives and caused even the “Napoleon of the West” (Sama Anna styled himself so) to bow low his haughty head. To stand on that cold, damp ground m the court where so many lives weie lost, and to listen to the sto ry told by the old man, one feels almost like he is in the presence oi death. The Alamo stands in the midst of the city in front of the Alamo Plaza, a silent yet eloquent remin*- der of the Texas Thermopylae. At the entrance of the old capital at Austin, stood a monument built frum the ruins of the Alamo and dedicated to the heroes who per ished there. One side b* re thi9 inscription : “To the God of the fearless and free i 9 dedicated this altar, made from the ruins of the Alamo”—on another, “Thermopy lae had her messengers of defeat; the Alamo had none,” on another side, “Blood of heroes hath stained me; let the stone of the Alamo speak that their immolation be not forgotten,” and on the oilier side, “Be they enrolled with Leon idas in the host of the mighty dead.” In the court of the Alamo is recorded the last words of Crock ett, Travis and Bowie. Bowie: “Carry my cot across the line boys.’ Travis: “Who will cross the line and die with me?” Crockett: “Be sure you are right and go ahead.” I wish I had space to describe the interior of the Alamo, but I will give you a general idea of it as it stands now. The court is about 35 feet wide aud 70 feet long and on eithei side are small rooms with dirt floors and rock wal'sand partitions, and it looks very gloo my, especially after hearing the history of the terrible struggle of those brave men. The next most brutal outrage was at Goliad. I was there about teu days ago. Col. Fannin was in command of Texaus at that place, and was ordered by Gen. Houston to go to Victoria, so he started and got about 9 miles out and stopped to rest his teams. This stop was made near the Colito and in about an hour found himself surrounded by Urrea’s troops Fannin ar ranged his men in a hollow square and made ready to meet the attack of twelve hundred Mexican infan try and seven hundred cavalry. (Fannin had four hundred ) They fought for several hours and as the Texans h*d no water thei' cannons got too hot to use. At dark the Mexicans withdrew. During the night the Texans suffered untold agony. The moans of the wounded and their pitiful pleading for just one drop of water was heard. Fan nin was severely wounded; all the teams had escaped during the bat tle and every hope of retreat under shelter of darkness was destroyed. The next morning Urrea received four hundred fresh troops and two cannons. When Fannin saw the recruits and cannons he knew there was no chance to save his men so he surrendered on condition that the s- ldiere were to be treated as prisoners of war according to the usage of civilized nations, the wounded to receive proper atten tion and their private property re spected and restored. These con ditions were signed and sealed with every formality so no one thought of their being violated. Fannin’s men were hurried to Go liad and put in the old fort or mis sion. Their food was beef without salt or bread. On the night of the 26th, Fannin's men, most of whom | were Alabama and Georgia, spent j the evening in merry conversation | concerning their return home, j Suddenly a rich tenor voice began SUMMERVILLE, CHATTOOGA COUNTY, GEORGIA, FEBRUIiaY 19,1896 singing “Home, Sweet Home.” The jest ceased, each manly heart beat in a responsive chord to those sweet words, many an eye grew dim as one after another, took up the soft refrain. Even while the song was on their lips, there came an order from Santa Anna to mur der all the American prisoners, aud as the patriots lay down to sleep and dream of the far away home and loved ones, the servant of the Prince of Butchers prepared to execute his command. The next morning was Palm Sunday, and at dawn the Texas troaps were order ed to file out. They were divided into three divisions and marched in different directions under a strong guard. After going half a mile the officers commanded a halt. The next moment a volley of balls hailed upon the unarmed Texans and continued until not a man was left standing. Fearing all were not dead, the Mexican caval ry rode over the field and pierced with sabers all who gave any sign f life. Even the wounded were dragged from their beds and mur dered in the fort. As a fitting close to the scene, the bodies of the Tex ans were partially covered with brush and set on fire. Fannin was last to be sacrificed ; he made three requests. That his watch should be sent home to his wife, that he be 6hot in the breast and that his body be given a Christian burial. He was shot in the head, his watch remained in the pocket of the offi cer and his body left unburied. But Houston got even at the battle of San Jacinto. In a few stirring words Houston told his seven hundred brave men that he was going to lead them against Santa Anna’s one thousand and six hundred veteran solders. The news was received with joy. They were prepared for a charge against the enemy. In the Mexican camp all was quiet, most all the officers were asleep, as they thought Hous ton would n>tbe so foolish as to attack. There was no martial mu sic to cheer the hearts of the Tex ans, but he who looked iuto those Hashing eyes aud read the resolu tion written on those brows and lips knew they had no need of drum or fife. As the Texans neared the camps and saw before them the butchers of their friends aud loved ones, a fierce cry of vengeance, burst from every heart—“ Reme mber the Alamo! Remember Go liad !” For a second the Mexicans shrank back in terror but soon re covered and gave the Texans a deadly fire, and before they could reload the Texans were within pis tol shot; then seven hundred death bearing bullets winged their way into the Mexican ranks, then turning their muskets into war clubs they grappled hand to hand with their foe. When these were broken they used their pistols and after they were empty they hurled them at the enemy and drew their bowie knives and again raising the dread battle cry, slaughtered right and left in savage fury. The Mexicans fought bravely but soon found they were struggling with demons, and not mortals, and fled in every direction while the Tex ans followed Many a Mexican fell on his knees and pleaded, “Me no AUrno; me no Goliad,” but they were shown no mercy, for the Texans had vowed to offer a bloody sacrifice to the memory of the martyred Travis, Bowie, Crock ett, Bonham and Fannin. In front of the hotel in Goliad is a plot of ground with a monument erected to Fannin and the brave heroes who were murdered with him It is impossible to write all the interesting things ab.-ut the war between Texas and Mexico, but it is an interesting study and very 7 interesting to visit the places where so many g-ve up their lives for lib erty and country. 1 leave here Wednesday for Aus tin, Waco, Sherman, Ft.

The girl had been knocked senseless and was then carried into a sheltered place on the mountain and again battered by a large stone and left for dead. The well nigh lifeless form was found by friends and the crime was laid at the door of Neal Smith one of the trusties. He was charg ed with having committed the crime and confessed it. A howling mob surrounded the stockade and demanded the convict, threatening to release the entire lot of convicts if he was not turned over to them. He was brought out and after be ing tied and having his ears cut off he was burned for the crime he had committed. The girl, afterdingering between life and death for some weeks, re covered, and now she has entered suit against the convict lessees to recover damages for the injuries inflicted upon her by the convict, who was allowed to have so much liberty.
