GREER COUNTY.

AUSTIN, Feb. 5. Especial, - The
HERALD Correspondent attempted to
interview Capt. William G. Walsh,

newspaper men as far as a proper re-

States possessions and the possessions
of Spain in this country, the Red
river, as it appears up.
on Melish's map, was fixed
as the line between Texas, then a part
of Mexico and United States territory.
