Despite a lack of military training, well-respected local leader General Stephen F. Austin was elected commander.

Santa Anna had sent his brother-in-law, General Martín Perfecto de Cos, to Béxar with reinforcements.  On October 13, Austin led his forces towards Béxar to confront the Mexican troops.  The Texians initiated a siege of the city.
