Governor T'hrockmorton suspended this
right for the time being. Referring to the
questio OF Mollio Hail, Lockhart. Texas:
Tho battle of San Jacinto and the battle
of Gonzales were fought IN a very short
time. Santa Anna styled himself the
Napoleon OF the West" l.. s. Ross led
tho Texas Rangers from 1853 to slS6l and
rescued Anna Parker and little Flrl that
no adopted and called her Mamie Ross.
IIa was elected governor about 1886. Did
you ever SEQ the fine peach named for
Manic Ross? l was glad to see SO many
nice letters containing interesting ques-
tons and correct answers the past week.
1t shows that the Haps know something
and wish to learn more. / shall say
something OF our contest in my next. the

and interesting subject the lIaphammor
has chosen for us to decide. Therefore we
