Correction to this entry.

Previously read 1845 Texas-annexation manifesto quoted as «…por los Estados del Norte-América» and «para vindicar su honor ultrajado y recobrar el territorio usurpado».. Quotes-vs-leaf sweep (2026-07-20), leaf n163: the docket reads «Anexación de Tejas, por el Gob.º Norte-Am.º», and the manuscript quotes «…para vindicar su honor ultrajado, y relevarse del intolerante territorio que se ha ocupado» — the words «recobrar»/«usurpado» are not on the leaf. Two misquotes-inside-quotation-marks corrected.

The originals of these records burned in the 1906 San Francisco fire. What survives is Thomas Savage’s 1870s copy, and this page describes that copy.
