Excerpt from A History of Texas, From Wilderness to Commonwealth, Vol. 3 of 5 Austin took occasion to report also that his health, which had been very bad since the army left Cibolo creek, had improved very much, and he praised the manner in which so large a percentage of the volun teers had remained on duty in the face of great hard ships. Many had found it necessary to return to their homes, and there really was no authority under which any of the men could be compelled to serve against their will. The army has done all that could have been done under the circumstances, Austin wrote, and without materials and organization, which latter is purely voluntary. It deserves great credit for its suf ferings and perseverance. I have every confidence that a short time will end this campaign. It is evident that Austin had now come to realize that there was no longer hope of any great number of new volunteers coming forward from among the col onists. The New Orleans Grays were journeying to ward San Antonio from the coast and Burleson, who was absent °with a detachment, Of one hundred and thirty men, was expected to return in a day or so. Austin had concluded that this would bring his force up to the greatest strength he could hope to have in the near future, and consequently he decided to delay the attack no longer.

Excerpt from History of Texas, Vol. 1: Fort Worth and the Texas Northwest Edition For some years before his death in 1884 Colonel Frank W. Johnson occupied himself in collecting material for and writing a comprehensive history of Texas down to annexation. He left his manuscripts to several "literary executors," of whom Judge A. W. Terrell was the last to survive. In August of 1912 the American Historical Society of Chicago asked me to write for them a history of Texas. I was unable to undertake the task and suggested that they publish Johnson's manuscript with editorial additions which would bring it down to date and give the results of research since Johnson's time. They accepted the suggestion and Judge Terrell welcomed the opportunity to publish the hook and consented to write a sketch of Johnson as an introduction. His sudden death two months later prevented his carrying out this intention. On examination I found Johnson's work of value chiefly for the period from 1820 to 1836. His plan was to make the hook a documentary history, letting the original documents, so far as possible, carry the narrative. Some of the documents that he used had already been printed in Kennedy, Foote and Yoakum, and since his death some additional ones have appeared in John Henry Brown's "History of Texas;" but some have never been published. The idea of a documentary history of this period is a good one, for the reason that the colonization of Texas by emigrants from the United States, and the subsequent revolution from Mexico, have generally been misrepresented as deliberate moves in a conspiracy of southern slaveholders to wrest Texas from Mexico and annex it to the United States. No denial of this charge can he so effective as the contemporary documents themselves, which go far toward revealing the thoughts and feelings of the settlers. For this reason I have frequently added documents to which Johnson did not have access. These additions as well as occasional paragraphs and chapters which I have found it necessary to insert, are indicated in footnotes. The chapters on the period since annexation are written by Mr. E. W. Winkler of the State Library. As indicated on the title page, the work comprises, in addition to the general history of Texas, an addendum of economic and local data covering all the county divisions of the state, and also a collection of biographical articles on families and individual Texans. The county sketches, the manuscript of which, prepared by other writers, I have read for general historical facts, form a brief compendium of the historical and economic growth of each of these civil divisions of Texas, which number nearly two hundred and fifty. The material was collected largely from older publications and reliable statistical sources. At the request of the authors I have read also the manuscript of several of the biographical sketches.

Excerpt from A History of Texas From Wilderness to Commonwealth, Vol. 5 of 5 However, the election was held, and the delegates gathered at Austin on the appointed date. It soon developed that the delegates were divided into three classes. There were radical Unionists who, if they could have their way, would have denied former Con federate soldiers all voice in the government 5 and there were radical secessionists who were reluctant to accept the situation created by the triumph of Union arms, and finally there were the conservatives of both camps who desired to subordinate everything to the restoration of normal relations with the Union. The last-named class held the balance of power. J. W. Throckmorton was elected president of the convention, a circumstance which in itself revealed the temper Of a majority of the delegates. Throckmorton had opposed secession, but had served in the Confederate army during the war. He was, therefore, an ideal presiding officer for a body charged with the task of preparing the way for readmission into the Union. The radicals in congress, led by Thaddeus Stevens, Of Pennsylvania, in the house, and by Charles Sumner, of Massachusetts, In the Senate, already had begun their opposition to the reconstruction program of President Johnson and, in calling the convention to order, Throck morton made support of the president the keynote of his address. Let us by our action, he said, strengthen the hands of the executive of the nation, and by a ready and willing compliance with his suggestions show our national brethren that we are in good faith disposed to renew our allegiance to the general government.
