the Alamo miracle page 6 by ric Gustafson
Captain Morales looked at his watch. It was about 11:30. He was standing only 200 yards from the Alamo. He noticed only two camp fires from behind their walls. He smiled. He was hoping that the rebels were asleep.
He had ordered that part of his troops get into position near the south wall. He told his men to eat and try to sleep. The only food they had was hardtack.
Officer Ordaz walked up.
" Sergeant". Morales grinned. " You should be sleeping".
" I'm just restless right now".
" How are the men doing?".
" Fine Sir". His voice hesitated. " They all know the battle is tomorrow".
" Try and get some sleep Sergeant". Morales smiled. " We attack at 4".
