A Short Sketch Of Early Texas History

Harrisburg. near Houston, for the
Twin Sisters" two famous cannon
that played an important part at the
battle OF san .Iacinto. the following
communication relative to them and
the Gonzales cannon. win prove of
much interest:
To the Editor:
For the second time this week |
have noticed In the columns OF the
Post a statement In connection with
the laudable search OF Mr.. Day for
the Twin Sisters which will confuse
the minds OF some not familiar with
early Texas history regarding the
identity Of the Twin Sisters" and
the Gonzales cannon" There is a
long stretch OF history and a vast
difference In the careers OF these pie
ces OF artillery. all three OF which did
such valiant service In cause OF free
dom.
The Gonzales cannon. so nobiy de-

meantime the men OF Gonzales had
been busy cutting up pieces OF log
chain and scrap iron for use instead
OF cannon ball. and on the morning OF
October 1 they sent word to Ca~tone-

well known. 'Castonsdo did not cross
the river and began retreat at the
dawn OF October 2. This the Texans
could not see without some resent
ment. so they pursued the fleeing Mex

mound. some di'tance from the river.
Here they fired one parting shot, the
first armed defiance against Santa
Anna. Its echo reverbrated for miles
up aud down that beautiful and peace

IN the hearts OF the citizens Of Coma

The subsequent history OF the Con-

be sttained from reliable sources. as
follows: Al the time Of the martyr

the town the cannon was tumbled into
the river.
Then Il was lost for many years. but
was finally found by Capt. c. c. De
Witt. who caught Its reflection In the
water. II was taken from the river
and used for many years BY the citi.

kept on exhibition at Gonzales. The

izsn OF Gonzales. 10 obtain their relic
for ihd exposition. and letter TO
him from Col. Mann states that he
"could not use the gun. its muzxle
being blown off" and that he knew
nothing more OF II after his troop
brought Il TO him at Corpus Christi.
One story Is that when Andy John
son vetoed the Thirteenth amendment
the people Of Corpus Christi hunted
up this old gun In order to givs n ia
lutte TO Johnson. and that when Il was
primed and charged Il exploded pre-
maturely. seriously injuring two Of
the citizens. II is variously stated
that the remains Of the memorable
gun were either thrown into the bay
or were sent TO Mexico as old iron.
But most certain II Is that II never
came toward Harrisburg In ITS wan
derings and to connect this piece Of
artillery with Mr.. Days quest for the
Twin Sisters az Harrisburg. where
there remains undoubtedly are. is
misleading.
