L. Ayer’s Journal March 5, 1836 GOLIAD: The Mexicans are according to the information just received closely investing the Alamo but the garrison is determined to resist to the last they however called for aid; Col Fannin 3 or 4 days before my arrival undertook to march 300 men to their aid but as I am informed all the force here insisted upon going with them and none would consent to stay except the regulars who wished to go but would obey orders under such circumstances. Col F called a council of officers and it was concluded that the army ware in force a San Patricio and the army in such a peculiar state of mind it was best to keep them together and advisable to remain in their situation.
