    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.

But in March 1813 Houston had been only 20 years old and required his mother’s consent—his father having died in 1806—to enlist. She had granted her permission, slipped the ring onto his finger and, if family lore is true, even gave him a musket. It was fitting Houston wore that ring until his death. The thin gold band had defined his…
