Recently unveiled, the monument oommemoratei the men who fell lij the Ill-fated Mier expedition of 1843 recalling the atory of the 17 black beana that spoiled death for aa many men at Hacienda Sal ado. Fond Raining Took 100 Year It u erected after nearly 100 yeare of fund-ratal iw- . It waa In 1848 that the bonea of the 17 martTT of Mier, together with thoae of 30 other Texana mas&acred in the Battle of Salado Creek, were returned to Payette county aoil and burled near here. Citlrem of La Orange at once t gan effort to raise money for a ault- able marker, according to Houston Wade, postal clerk, whose history of the expedition was published with the monument's unveiling. In the summer of 1843 the Repub lic of Texas still was at war with Mexico, though the dealaive battle of flan Jacinto had been rough t Ana won by Gen, flam Houston's army six Team before. On Sept. 11 a force of 1,300 Mexi cans under Gen. Adrian Woll Invaded the Tillage of an Antonio, taking captive the district Judge, the grand Jury and the attorneys attending the court then In session. Ordered to Attack The Texas militia west of the Brt. boa river waa ordered to attack the Mexicans. Opt. Matthew Caldwell of Gonzales led a. company of 00 men against Woll and defeated the Mexl cans at Salado Creek. Through a mtsunders tending of positions, however, Capt. Nicholas Dawson, La Grange, leading a com pany of A3 men to Join Caldweil. found himself surrounded and cut off by the retreating Mexicans. The Mexicans slaughtered the Tex ana With giapeshot. Thirty-two were killed and a number of others cap tured. Brlg.-Gen. Somervell led a force of Texana In pursuit of the enemy, who retreated across the Rio Orande. force under Capt. William 8. Planer bolted and pursued the enemy across the river. . On Christmas night, 1643, the Tex ana attacked the Mexican village of Mier. Flaher was wounded and the Texana aurrendered. They were marched toward Mexico City, but at Hacienda flalado, 100 miles from flaltlllo, they escaped. Af ter wandering for days In the moun tains, they were recaptured by a Mexl' oan cavalry squad. One In Ten Executed Gen. flanta Anna ordered one In each ten of the prisoners to be shot, On March 35 they were made to draw beana from a pitcher held by an of ficer. It contained 17 black beans and 1M whit onea. That night the unlucky 17 were hot as they eat on a log. The rest of the band with the ex ception of Capt. Swing Cameron, wno waa shot at a later date, were taken to Mexico City and kept at hard lab for years. Eventually all were given their liberty. . Later, during the war with Mexico, Texas members of Gen. Zach Taylor's army got an order on the alcalde of Hacienda flalado to surrender the mains of the 17 Texani who were shot there. They were brought to La Grange, center of the district from w-ntch most of the Texana had come. A few yeara later the remains of the SO kill d at Salado Creek also were return ed here. DESIRE TO GRAB IT OEN"BVA. Switzerland, Sept. 30. (Jp) Nothing la further from Ger many's thoughts than to seek terri torial expansion by force, Propagand Minister Joseph Goebbels declared to- ,day at an interview. Tr. Goebbels also asserted It waa ridiculous to accuse the Nasle of ex ercising "cheap revenge" in their cam palgn against the Jews. Regarding national security, he said that any German government, what ever Its composition might be, would nave to demand security for the in teres to of the world as welt as for the Interests of Germany. Touching on the outstanding prota Irmi of the new Oermany's relations with the world. Dr. Goebbels pictured hie homeland as a peace-loving na tion, bent on reconstruction and serf' ing as a barrier protecting the world against the expansion of bolshevlsm He ssid he felt that mention must be made of the reproach that the new Germany is pursuing a policy or Intellectual expansion merely as prep aration for an ultimate policy of ex pansion by force. "We have by no means ar.y Inten tion," he said, Mof converting nation al eor I alum into an article for wond export. We have neither the time nor any rcaon to MMimf a more or leas myattcil world Dilation beyond our VonUer.
