y Becca Lamar West Chairman of
PmMlcity U. D. C.)
A rect gift to the Texas State His-
rical Society by the noted. Histor-
s Mr. "Waddy Thompson of Colum-
t. South Carolina and Atlanta Ga.
collection of valuable papers and
icrs onci the property of bis great
.cle Waddy Thompson United
Envoy Extraordinary and Min-
cer Plenipotentiary to Mexico dur-
g tie iays of the Texas Republic is
interest to all Texans especially
tfcte true of the Texas Federation of
omen's Clubs; the Daughters of the
ypHblic of Texas; the Daughters of
e American Revolution; and the
sited Daughters of the Confederacy
1 o which associations have com-
ittees to foster the perpetuation of
ijxas History. These as well as the
:tc University and the State Histor
ical Commission feel deeply indebted
to Mr. Thompson for his valuable

These papers contain letters from
several Texas1 prisoners in the Cas-
tlei'ot Perote petitioning Mr. Thomp-
son that he intercede for their release
(this petition) I is 1n the collection). Mr.
McLeod on hearing of the petition
wrote General Thompson (this letter
is also in the collection) disclaiming
any part in the petition saying that he
could not ask the United States 'for
aid; as he was not a citizen of that
country thatfihe had taken the Oath
of !Allegiancej(to the Republic of Tex-
as and would look to that government
alone for help He added that he hop-
ed that the day would come when the
Republic of Texas would be as glori-
ous: a-country as the Republic of the
United States!) In this collection: also
are several1 letters from Daniel "Web-
ster discussing the probable acquisi-
tion of California and suggesting that
Waddy Thompson question General
Tornel delicately about its value to
Mexico. One !pf Daniel "Webster's con-
cerns was the release of two Texas
prisoners g! C. Hatch and John
Beardley while a letter from An-
drew Jackson is written in behalf of
Mr. Bradley lanother Texas prisoner.
A letter from; Santa Anna several
from President John Tyler and one
from I. C. Calhoun and several from
Waddy Thompson and General Mc-
Leod are in this interesting collec-
tion '' -X
The General McLeod referred to
was a particular friend .of Mirabeau
B. Lamar having married his sister
Rebecca Lamar of Columbus Ga. La-
marjand McLeod were both men of
mighty vision and their sentiment that
Texas should forever remain a Repub.-
lic was at that time shared by Hous-
ton 'and .other pioneer Texans. The
exegencies of the times and the com-
ing of steel rails of course reconcil-
ed them to the Inevitable and many
of them lived to re-swear allegiance
to the United States when -the' Lone
Star of its .own volition in uncon-
quered independence voluntarily en-
tered the Union.
This choice gift for our historic ar-
chives again brings forth the ques-
tion why not a splendid Historical
Museum for Toxas? So great a state
should not be behind other states in
such an important thing. The state
should own the collections already ac-
cumulated by the various patriotic
societiesancl -sveld them into me great
whole appropriating funds for the
collection of data and relics that
would bring students from distant
lands and in which the whole state
would take a pride.
Take the lead in this as in all great
movements Daughters of Texas.
First" presbylerlan EetlvaL
