The Convention of 1833 and the Consultation of 1835 reflected growing tension between the colonists and the Mexican government as late 1835 military and political events pushed Austin toward war. In the spring of 1833, Austin traveled to Mexico to deliver demands for independent Texas statehood separate from Coahuila, and after being discouraged by the response, he wrote to supporters in Bexar, modern San Antonio, urging the formation of a state government in defiance of Mexican authorities; as a result, he was imprisoned for almost two years. Elected delegates met at San Felipe for the conventions of 1832 and 1833 and the Consultation of 1835, and the town served as the seat of the provisional Texas government in the months leading up to the Declaration of Independence in March 1836. During the fall of 1835, San Felipe's second press began publishing the Telegraph and Texas Register, which became the voice of the Texas Revolution by printing 22 issues during the campaign, from reporting the Come and Take It incident at Gonzales to an issue being printed at Harrisburg, modern-day Houston, on April 14, 1836, when Santa Anna's army captured the press and burned the town. The press had moved to Harrisburg after the evacuation and burning of San Felipe to continue supporting the interim government. Initially managed by Baker and Bordens, Joseph Baker, Gail Borden Jr., and John Borden, with printers brought from Baltimore, the press produced major documents of early Texas from October 1835 to April 1836, including the Declaration of the People of Texas in November 1835, Travis' letter from the Alamo in March 1836, and the Unanimous Declaration of Independence in March 1836. With Austin imprisoned in Mexico City and Samuel May Williams increasingly in the United States seeking support for the war, Gail Borden also took command of the land office while managing the press and later became prominent as the founder of the Borden Milk Company. During the Consultation of 1835, an 8-6 vote moved the government to Washington-on-the-Brazos, where the Declaration of Independence was signed in March 1836, chiefly because it was closer to growing colonial populations to the east and because San Felipe lacked public buildings.
