To His Excellency the President Don Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna Sir

I inclose to Your Excellency a passport for the Genl Adrian Woll; and I have the pleasure to · inform You that dispositions are being made for the departure of the escort this evening, with the intention that · they Shall march from the opposite Side of the river early in the morning. With great consideration, I am Your Excellency's Most obt Servt David G. Burnet [3115 l [BURNET to SANTA ANNA]

Velasco 20th May 1836

Excellent Sir

Your esteemed letter of yesterday I have duly received. The Scarcity of horses at this point renders it inconvenient to furnish a larger escort for Genl Woll than a Lieutenant and five men of the company of Capt Fisher These can be prepared to depart this Evening if desireable- Should it comport with the wishes of Gen Woll under his full knowledge of facts to accept of this conduct, Your Excellency will please signify it, and the necessary arrangements will be immediately made With high Regard lam Your Excellencys most Obt Sevt

David G Burnet

To his Excellency President Don Antonio Lopez De Santa Anna
