Stories of
Great Scouts
BY Elmo

Watson
O.. Western Newspapers Union.
THE IRON NERVE OF SAM
HOUSTON, THE VIRGINIAN

Courage and daring were qualities
Characteristic Of all the scouts who
won their right to fame in frontier his
tory, but for iron nerve and pure grit
Sam Houston was the peer of them all.
Perhaps he inherited, his fOrtitude
from his father, who. was a soldier
in the Revolution; perhaps during his
long stay among the Cherokee Indi-
ans he learned that a warrior bears
pain without flinching.
Houston was q Virginian who had
entered the army and risen to the rank
of ensign at the outbreak of the Creek
war in 1913. Gen. Andrew Jackson,
"Old Hickory" had taken the field
against the Creeks and, after a series
Of battles in which the Indians We're
defeated, they made a last stand at
their fortified encampment, TOhOpeka,
in the Great Horseshoe bend of the
TallapOosa river, Ala.
During the assault on this fort,
barbed arrow struck Houston in the
thigh He tried TO pull it out, but
failed. The agony was frightful.
Calling to a soldier, Houston COM
manded him to extract the shaft.
Twice the man tried and failed, then
begged to be relieved of the task when
he saw the unspeakable torture he
was causing.
'aTry again." commanded Houston.
'.And If you fail, I'll run you through
with my sword ~
The third attempt was successful,
and as the barbed shaft was torn
from the flesh, it was followed by a
gush of blood. General Jackson, see
ing HoustOns wound, ordered him to
the rear. The young ensign waited
until Jackson had passed on, had a
surgeon bind up the wound, and in a
few minutes he was back in the thick
of the fighting.
The high peak in Houston's adven-
turous life came in 1886 when, at the
head of a little army of 800 Texans,
with the battle cry of Remember the
Alamor on their lips, he defeated the
hordes of Santa Anna, the Mexican
dictator, at San Jacinto, and won free
dom for Texas. He was elected first
president of the Lone Star republic.
AT the outbreak of the Civil war,
Houston, who was governor of Texas,
was bitterly opposed to the secession
of that state from the Union. The
Confederates forced him to resign.
They required all men over sixteen to
! register and to carry a pass while
travelling. Houston refused to dc
either. Once they stopped him and
demanded his pass. 'San Jacinto is
my pass through Texas!' Numbered
the brave old man as he rode on.
Houston died at his home in Hunts
vile July &c, 1868, with the name Of
Texas on his lips.
