express itself for the separation from Coahuila and
the forming of Te'xas into a state of. this confedera-

couid-be obtained.
;I havein all my acts conformed to this public wish
of the people Nso far as I was informed of it and
when I despaijeof obtaining any remedy as I did
the beginning of'Octbberj I deemed it to be my duty
fis an agent"to"inform thlfpeople so; and believing as
T did 'that that they would organise I also consider-
ed that it wouldbe much better to do so by a harmo-
nious consultation of the Ayuntamieiito1 than by a
popular commotion. Theie were my reasons for the
recommendation given in .that officio; also the result
of the civil'war was thought to be. doubtful.
