In the Battle of Gonzales, which occurred on October 2, 1835, Mexican troops crossed the Guadalupe River. The battle marked the first military engagement of the Texas Revolution, as Texian settlers resisted the Mexican government's attempt to retrieve a cannon that had been loaned to them for defense against Native American attacks. The confrontation ultimately symbolized the Texian desire for independence from Mexican rule.
