P W Grayson et Al to Stephen F Austin, 10-06-1835
Summary: Urging him to join the army
Gonzales
12 o'clock at night
You will receive important dispatches by the Bearer that Col
Ugartachea and probably Genl Cos—are now on their march here, with all
their forces to take the Gun if it is not delivered— You will see by
Ugartachea's letter to you, he proposes a sort of compromise. That will give
us an opportunity to entertain him a little while, upon the Suggestion that
you are sent for, until we can get in more men. We who subscribe this,
request you earnestly to come on immediately, bringing all the aid you
possible Can—we want powder and lead. Do all you can to send on instantly
as much as possible.
P. W. Grayson J. W. E. Wallace
[Addressed:] Col. Stephen F. Austin at San Felipe de Austin.
