Time for a Decision While one group of revolutionaries was fighting for Texas on the battlefield, another group was meeting to decide Texas’s fate. The defend- ers at the Alamo were under fire from Santa Anna, and Texas still had not officially declared independence from Mexico. When delegates to the first Consultation met in November 1835, they had a decision to make. Should they support Texas remaining a part of Mexico and continue to work on restoring the state’s rights granted in the Constitution of 1824? Or should they seek independence? They called a second meeting of the Consultation on March 1, 1836, hoping that events would help them make their decision.

  • Texas As a Nation 1836 to 1845
    TEXAS AS A NATION 1836 TO 1845 In the fall of 1835 many Texans, both Anglo-American colonists and Tejanos, concluded that liberalism and republicanism in Mexico, as reflected in its Constitution of 1824, were dead. The dictatorship of President Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, supported by rich landowners, had seized control of the governments and subverted the constitution. As dissension and discord mounted in Texas, both on the military front and at the seat of the provisional government of the Consultation at San Felipe, the colonists agreed that another popular assembly was needed to chart a course of action. On December 10, 1835, the General Council of the provisional government issued a call for an election on February 1, 1836, to choose forty-four delegates to assemble on March 1 at Washington-on-the-Brazos. These delegates represented the seventeen Texas municipalities and the small settlement at Pecan Point on the Red River. The idea of independence from Mexico was growing. The Consultation sent Branch T. Archer, William H. Wharton, and Stephen F. Austin to the United States to solicit men, money, supplies, and sympathy for the Texas cause. At New Orleans, in early January of 1836, the agents found enthusiastic support, but advised that aid would not be forthcoming so long as Texans squabbled over whether to sustain the Mexican constitution. They then proceeded to Washington and separated: Wharton remained in the capital, Archer went to Richmond, and Austin headed for New York City. The convention held at Washington-on-the-Brazos on March 1, 1836, was quite different from the Consultation.
