Samuel Angulo, director of the
Sam Houston Memorial Museum,
said the museum’s former director,
Ann Fears Crawford, had the origi
nal idea for the sesquicentennial ex
hibit. He said the project was com
pleted in three months.
“It has been on the road for al
most three years,” Angulo said.
The exhibit has been all over
Texas, he said.
Angulo said all the photographed
objects can be seen at tne museum.
Two pictures portray the cap
tured Santa Anna oeing brought be
fore Houston, who was wounded in
battle. Quotes from Santa Anna give
an account of the gracious treatment
he said he received while a prisoner.
The colors of the Texas and Mex
ico flags provide the background for
reproductions of Texas Revolution
ary Army and Mexican Army docu
ments, letters from the two leaders
and several portraits.
The Battle of San Jacinto, in
which Texas won its independence
from Mexico by defeating General
Santa Anna’s army, is featured in a
descriptive text and painting. Santa
Anna is called the “Napoleon of the
West” in the description of the fa
mous battle.
Kass Prince, acting director of the
Arts Council of Brazos Valley, said
Houston was given the name Raven
by Cherokee Indians when he was a
boy.
