CHAPTER XI
16/47

Won't you do what I say and slip out of the Alamo while there's still a chance ?" Ned was much moved, but he kept his resolution as he had kept it before.

"You are all very good to me here," he said.

I'm a Texan now, and I'm going to see it through with the rest of you." "All right," said Crockett lightly.

"I've heard that you can lead a horse to the water, but you can't make him drink, an' if a boy don't want to go you can't make him go.

So we'll just go into this little improvised armory of ours, an' you an' I will put in our time moldin' bullets." They entered one of the adobe buildings.
