Texas settler, military figure, Captain of the Gonzales-Seguin Rangers and a signer of the Texas Declaration of Independence (1798–1842). He is sometimes referred to as the ‘Paul Revere of the Texas Revolution’ because he rode from Gonzales to Bastrop to call men to arms before the Battle of Gonzales in 1835. DS, one page, 8.75 x 13.5, March 8, 1837. Caldwell appoints William H. Steele as an agent to sell land in Green DeWitt’s colony. In part: “Know all by these presents that I Mathew Caldwell…nominate and appoint William H. Steele of said County my true and lawful agent for me and in my name to sell and dispose of and convey to any person whomsoever a certain League of land lying on the Tobacco River in Green DeWitts Colony.” Signed at the conclusion by Caldwell, and countersigned by Steele. Reverse bears an endorsement by Daniel Tober, dated May 10, 1840. In good to very good condition, with partial separations along fragile, horizontal folds, paper loss to right edge (slightly affecting Caldwell’s signature), scattered toning, soiling, and foxing, and a few small tears along top horizontal fold. The Robert Davis Collection.
