  • May 1836: What are known now as the Treaties of Velasco were not called that when they were drafted, but were rather a "Public Agreement" and a Secret Treaty. There were two documents, one private, the other public, signed in Velasco, Texas between General Antonio López de Santa Anna, President of Mexico and the Republic of Texas, in the aftermath of the Battle of San Jacinto on 21 April 1836. The signatories were Interim President David G. Burnet for Texas and Santa Anna for Mexico. The Mexican forces agreed to retreat south of Rio Grande.
