Episode description
Before Texas gained independence from Mexico, the people of Gonzales asked the Mexican Government for a cannon so they could provide protection for their community. General Santa Ana loaned them a cannon, with the agreement they would give it back upon request. That didn’t happen. The request by Santa Ana to get the cannon back resulted in the first battle of the Texas Revolution.
