Considered to be the turning point of Texas's fight against Mexico for their independence, the Battle of the Alamo is now major historic knowledge across the world. It is widely agreed that Mexico lost this battle because Mexican general, Santa Anna, was not able to gather his troops quickly enough after the calls of the enemies, the Texans, were heard. It is thought that this was because of Emily - a twenty-one-year-old indentured servant - who was distracting the Mexican general during this time. Emily had been captured by Mexican forces along with other household members and before that, she was indentured to Colonel James Morgan. Many believe Emily is to thank for the Texas victory that day.
