    Sam Houston died.Margaret gently removed a ring from the pinkie on her husband’s left hand. His mother,Elizabeth Paxton Houston, had given her son the ring when he had joined the U.S. Army during the War of 1812.

I think that a black male doctor that worked with blood research is interesting. I do not know a lot of black doctor’s so to research someone that specialized in this area is why I decided to research Charles Drew.…
