His name was York, and he was Clark's slave, willed to him by his father. But Clark did not like to refer to him as slave, so in the journals he just called him "my servant". The two men had grown up together. York was tall, strong, a valuable member of the expedition, and devoted to Clark, who freed him when they returned to St. Louis. Subsequently Clark set him up in the draying business.

Why do they call Texas the lone star state?

Texas is called the Lone Star State because the first flag of the Republic of Texas adopted by the Congress in 1836 was blue with a golden star on it. This flag was known as the Burnet flag. The later Republic flag, now the state flag, has one lone white star in the blue field next to white and red stripes. (The white stripe is above the red.) ============================================== "Lone Star" state is Texas's nickname. Prior to the Mexican-American war, Texas gained independence from Mexico. Since Mexico had a large expanse of un-inhabited land, they allowed American settlers to live in the area. Stephen Austin (son of Moses Austin) urged the province to gain freedom. It's been called the Lone-Star Republic since.
