After the Battle of the Alamo, Susanna Dickinson, the widow of Alamo defender Almaron Dickinson, was spared and taken captive by the Mexican army. General Santa Anna ordered her to deliver a message to the Texian settlers, warning them of their impending doom. Susanna eventually returned to Texas, where she became an important figure in the Texas Revolution, sharing her experiences and contributing to the Texan cause. She later settled in Austin and lived a relatively quiet life until her death in 1883.
