Noah Smithwick





While researching other topics, I ran across a quote from Noah Smithwick, an early Texan pioneer  As you'll see in this brief bio in the Handbook of Texas, he was a character.  In 1830 the authorities in San Felipe de Austin declared him 'a bad citizen' and escorted him to the Sabine River!

Here's what he had to say about dances back in colonial Texas.  (A puncheon is a split log.)
