I seem to remember a painting of Deaf Smith at Sam Houstons side when Santa Anna was captured and brought to Sam to surrender. General Sam Was wounded and was lying by an oak tree and deaf Smith was by him holding a hand up to his ear or something like that. It was in my very very thick Texas History book in J.H.S.
