  • Chapter 6: End of Spanish Rule
    End of Spanish Rule Why It Matters Europeans had ruled the New World for centuries. In the late 1700s people in the Americas began to throw off European rule. The thirteen English colonies were first. The French colony of Haiti was next. Texas was one part of the grand story of the independence of the Spanish colonies. For the people living in Texas, though, the transition from Spanish province to a territory in the independent nation of Mexico was tremendously important. The Impact Today • Texas was the region of North America in which Spanish, French, English, and Native Americans met. • Contact among people encourages new ways of thinking.

MOST DESPERATE PEOPLE THE GENESIS OF TEXAS EXCEPTIONALISM by MICHAEL G. KELLEY Under the direction of Wendy H. Venet ABSTRACT Six different nations have claimed sovereignty over some or all of the current state of Texas. In the early nineteenth century, Spain ruled Texas. Then Mexico rebelled against Spain, and from 1821 to 1836 Texas was a Mexican province. In 1836, Texas Anglo settlers rebelled against Mexican rule and established a separate republic. The early Anglo settlers brought their form of civilization to a region that the Spanish had not been able to subdue for three centuries. They defeated a professional army and eventually overwhelmed Native American tribes who wished to maintain their way of life without inference from intruding Anglo settlers. This history fostered a people who consider themselves capable of doing anything—an exceptional population imbued with a fierce sense of nationalistic and local rooted in the mythic memoirs of the first Anglo settlers.

  • The Story of Crawford Long
    The Story of Crawford Long ©The discovery of surgical anesthesia by Crawford W. Long ever stimulates interest and enthusiasm among those interested in the history of medicine. Boland has written the events relating to the discovery of the use of ether by Long in a sprightly style that captivates the imagination of the reader." Quarterly Review of Biology In 1846 William Thomas Green Morton (1819-1868) performed the first publicly-witnessed surgery to use ether as an anesthetic when he removed a neck tumor from a patient at Massachusetts General Hospital. News of the dramatic event quickly spread and Morton was erroneously credited with discovering the procedure. Few people at the time knew that Crawford W. Long (1815 1878), a physician from FRANK KELLS BOLAND Danielsville, Georgia, was the true pioneer of this important medical advancement. Frank Kells Boland published The First Anesthetic in 1950. It traces the history of Long©s first discoveries and uses of anesthesia and calls for wider recognition of his achievements. FRANK KELLS BOLAND was a medical history scholar who served as Chairman of the Committee on Medical History of the Medical Association of Georgia. After publishing The First Anesthetic\\*e. served as President of the Crawford Long Memorial Association.

  • Individuals and Events Cards
    Grade 7 Social Studies Unit: 05 Lesson: 01 Individuals and Events Cards Philip Nolan Philip Nolan was an American who threatened Spanish rule. He was known as a filibuster (an adventurer who engaged in a private rebellion against a foreign country).The Spanish never truly be lieved that the only reason Nolan was entering Texas was to capture wild horses to sell in the United States. At first he had permission by the Spanish government to enter Texas. The Spanish government became suspicious when he began to visit with General James Wilkinson. General James Wilkinson was the United States army commander of the American frontier that bordered Spanish Texas. The Spanish governor feared that Nolan was plotting to take Texas from Spain. The United States had been interested in Texas as far back as 1803 under President Thomas Jefferson. The Spanish always had a difficult time securing their northern borders. The Spanish governor warned Philip Nolan he would be arrested if he entered Texas again. Nolan ignored the warnings. Near Waco, Philip Nolan and 17 other men met up with soldiers near Waco. A fight broke out and Philip Nolan was killed. The men who were captured were taken to Mexico. Do you think Philip Nolan was working for the United States government to take control of Texas from Spain? Gutiérrez-Magee Expedition After taking control of the Neutral Territory for the United States, Augustus Magee resigned from the U.S. Army and met Bernardo Gutiérrez de Lara. Gutiérrez had been a follower of Father Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla. Father Hidalgo was part of the independence movement from Spain.

  • THE REAL RIPPER by William R
    THE REAL RIPPER By William R. Williamson "The glory of the "knife-men" wearing proudly their ivory handled Bowies in embroidered sheaths has indeed faded. Nevertheless the traditional tales of the frontier - tales yet to be heard all over the Southwest - Bowie's knife has become nothing less than the American counter- part of King Arthur's "Excalibur" or of Sigmund's great sword "Gram" forged with runic rhymes by the dwarf smiths of the old Norse gods. And its origin is wrapped in multiplied legends as conflicting and fantastic as those that glorify the master weapons of the old world." (1) In addressing the society this morning on the subject of James Bowie and the Bowie knife what location could be more apropos than the queen city of the Mississippi delta, historic and colorful old New Orleans. It was in this area and in this city that Bowie spent his formative years. The New Orleans of Bowie's time was less than genteel, it had become the melting pot of every nation and every color. Gamblers, mulatto tradesmen, plantation men, filibusters, pirates, slave traders, river boatmen trod its streets and sampled its life. If arranged in a WILLIAM R. WILLIAMSON circle the saloons, bordellos, cabarets and hostelrys would have surrounded the entire city. One traveler wrote, "There is, perhaps, no place in the civilized world where the influence of the gospel is more needed than in New Orleans." Dr. Thomas Nichols said, "it is notorious that the worst Southerners are Northerners." Northern businessmen arrived at the St. Charles hotel in a state of highly aroused expectancy.

    BILL ANALYSIS Senate Research Center S.C.R. 20 86R15033 GM-D By: Fallon Administration 5/7/2019 As Filed AUTHOR'S / SPONSOR'S STATEMENT OF INTENT Forever associated with Jim Bowie and the heroic Battle of the Alamo, the Bowie knife has long been a vivid and colorful symbol of the history and heritage of Texas. It is thought that the first Bowie knife was made by Rezin Bowie, Jim's brother, during the 1820s, when the two siblings were in business together in Avoyelles Parish, Louisiana. After Jim was involved in a gunfight, Rezin gave him the large hunting knife for personal protection, and in September 1827, in the chaotic aftermath of a duel near Natchez, Louisiana, Jim used it to stab an assailant who was trying to kill him. The story of the "Sandbar Fight" ensured Jim's reputation as a deadly knife fighter, and all across the South, men began to ask blacksmiths to make them a knife like Jim Bowie's. The weapon's fame grew when Jim Bowie took it with him to Texas, and he and other defenders of the Alamo are thought to have used the knives during the battle. The Bowie knife later became popular with the Texas Rangers who served under the legendary Jack Hays and Ben McCulloch, as well as with Confederate soldiers, who were known to engrave "Sunny South" and other mottoes on the blades of their knives. During an era when guns often misfired, the Bowie knife was a valuable back-up weapon, and schools were set up to teach the technique of using the blade in a fight.
