Manuscript DS, in Spanish, signed by Judge of Measures “Antonio Garza Morales,” one page, 6.25 x 6, March 17, 1836. Untranslated receipt for three mules, ostensibly for the Texas campaign. The brands of the animals are in the left margin. In fine condition, with two vertical folds and some light toning to edges. The Battle of Coleto was significant because it showed that Texian troops involved in the battle, despite being relatively untrained, were able to stand up to the Mexican troops against them and obey their commanders.
