AUSTIN TO WILLIAM BRYAN 1
New York April 24 th 1836. '
MR WILLIAM Bin"AN DR SIR,
Yours of the 10 th Instant is this moment received: desolation it seems is sweeping over Texas-- My heart and soul are sick but my spirit is un- broken- I foresaw the evils of War and have (as is well known) tried to keep them out of Texas-but it was impossible- Santa Anna has raised the bloody flag of a Pirate-the fate of Pirates will sooner or later be his fate, but enough of this, the object of this is, to thank you, you and you • alone have wril~en to us, from the Govt. of Texas we have not rec'd one word, not even one. I thank you for your last letter, although it comes lo us as the messenger of desolation and death, Justice will yet be done to you-Texas will rise again and your services will then be remembered.
