     Texans as Sam Houston, Jim Bowie and Davy Crockett traveled 
     into Nacogdoches and on to the battles of the Revolution; and 
     in further recognition of its historic significance as a 
     route which brought many to settle this great and untamed 
     territory along the Red and Sabine Rivers, all while 
     promoting trade and commerce along its well-travelled path, 
     thereby paving the way for the establishment of the Great 
     Republic of Texas.

     Lord 2018.
