Tuhia he whakamāramatanga mō tēnei wāhanga - I tautoko a Ruiz i te take o Texian i te wā o te Texas Revolution, i a ia te Alcade o San Antonio. Kāore a Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna i whakawhirinaki ki a Ruiz, ā, i te tomokanga mai o te ope ā-Mehiko ki San Antonio ki te tīmata i te whakapae o te Alamo
I whakanohoia e Santa Anna a Ruiz ki te whare herehere.
