In
a few words there is 2000 Mexican soldiers in Bexar, and 150
Americans in the Alamo. Sesma is at the head of them, and from
the best accounts that can be obtained, they intend to show
no quarter. If every man cannot turn out to a man every man
in the Alamo will be murdered.
They
have not more than 8 or 10 days provisions. They say they will
defend it or die on the ground. Provisions, ammunition and Men,
or you will suffer your men to be murdered in the Fort. If you
do not turn out Texas is gone. I left Bexar on the 23rd. at
4 P.M.
