Archives War Comes To An End...
Luckily, Vasquez later returned to Mexico, but his return didn't ensure that the Texans were now safe. With the fear of an attack on Austin, President Houston demanded the withdraw of any records from the capital, but Austin residents disagreed. Austin residents, including Angelina Eberly fired at the officials who were loading the documents onto a wagon thus ending the Archives War, while the documents made there way back to Austin.
