[422) [ MILLER lo SMITH]

[To J. W. Smith, BexarJ [July 25, 1835] ... All here is in a train for peace, the war and speculating parties are entirely put down, and are preparing to leave the country. They should now be demanded of their respective chiefs - a few at a time - at first, Johnson, Williamson, Travis, and Williams, - and perhaps that is enough. Capt. Martin once revolutionary, is now, thank God, where he should be, in favor of peace and his duly, and by his influence in a good degree has peace been restored. But now they should be demanded - the moment is auspicious. The people are up. Say so, and oblige one who will never forget his true allegiance to the supreme: authorities of the Nation and who knows that until they are dealt with, Texas will never be at quiet. Travis is in a peck of tTOuble. Dr. James B. Miller disclaims his act in taking Anahuac and he feels the breach. Don Lorenzo de Zavala is now in Columbia trying to arouse I the people I etc have him called for and he also will be delivered up. Williamson, Johnson, and 13akcr arc now on a visit to him, and no doubt conspiring aginst the Govcrnmc·:nt. Fail not to move in this mailer, and that quickly, as now is the lime. .. . [James H. C. Miller I
