Southwestern Historical Quarterly
College of Texas, is an analytical examination of the Revolution
which places it within the wider canvas of general American
history. Written by Dr. Herbert Gambrell, a member of the As-
sociation Executive Council and chairman of the department of
history at Southern Methodist University, the third article,
"Anson Jones," turns from the general to the specific. The fourth
item, written by Dr. Carter, an authority on American Free-
masonry, is entitled "Masons and the Texas Revolution."
W. A. Hensarling, Association member of Uvalde, Texas, has
been named chairman of the Fort Inge Project, Uvalde County
Centennial. The project committee proposes to restore Fort
Inge on the Leona River near Uvalde and to identify and
mark the various buildings of the old installation. Association
members who have data that pertain to the fort may perform a
worthwhile service by transmitting such information as may be
of help to the Uvalde group to Mr. W. A. Hensarling, Uvalde
Federal Savings and Loan Association, Uvalde, Texas.
On March 24, 1956, ceremonies were held in the Senate Cham-
ber of the State Capitol honoring Dr. A. Joseph Armstrong,
scholar and founder of the Browning Library at Baylor Univer-
sity who was elected to the Texas Hall of Remembrance as a
Hero of Education. A portrait of Dr. Armstrong, the gift of
Dr. Samuel P. Todaro of Austin for his father, Joseph P Todaro
of Temple, was presented to the state of Texas by President W.
R. White of Baylor University.
As his contribution to the stimulation of interest in the run-
ning of the Chisholm Trail, Tom R. Hickman, of Texas Ranger
fame, now a resident of Gainesville, Texas, recently notified
the Association office of his plans to ride the Kansas and Okla-
homa sections of the trail. Hickman proposed to start from
Caldwell, Kansas, with two horses and ride southward to Nocona,
Texas. Here the main body of the Chisholm Trail Celebration
Drive, which began at San Antonio, planned to make its last stop
in Texas before reaching Red River.174
