Capt. of 2nd U.S. Dragoons, Galveston, Texas writes about the opening of the Mexican War: "There will be ten thousand troops on the Rio Grande in two weeks....I shall go directly to Point Isabel and if not in the hands of the enemy shall land and join my company. We can keep to sea until our fuel is exhausted if we cannot get ashore."
