The Alamo letter society strives to educate current and future Texans about their forefathers’ armed struggle for Freedom and Liberty through the placement of a large 204lb, 36″x 24″ bronze plaque containing Col. William Barrett Travis’s Alamo “Victory or Death” letter, in all 254 Texas Courthouses. To honor the two leading Tejanos of the Texas Revolution, Jose Antonio Navarro and Juan Seguín.
The “Victory or Death” letter was written on Feb. 24, 1836, and heroically dispatched through the Mexican Army to General Sam Houston by Captain Albert Martin. Only 220 words long, many Texans and other Freedom-loving people around the world hold it in the same high esteem as the U.S. Constitution and the Magna Carta.
The Southwell Company proudly supports this mission, and for dedication dates and more information please visit:alamoletter.com
