The Life of Sam Houston - Charles Edwards Lester - Bog

Excerpt from Life of Sam Houston: Illustrated There are moments in our lives on which fortune suspends our future history and when we meet the crisis like men, she takes care of the future for us. Once past the hour of trial, there are no more hardships to undergo, no more dangers to encounter. The gates, which guard the way to glory, are swung wide Open to the advancing hero, and he treads the path of light and triumph, as the Roman conqueror marched up to the temple of Jupiter, through the streets of the Eternal City.
