Biographical Sketch

Joseph Draper Sayers served as governor of Texas from January 17, 1899 to January 20, 1903. Sayers was born in Mississippi in 1841. When he was ten, Sayers' family moved to Bastrop, Texas, where he attended the Bastrop Military Institute until 1860. Sayers advanced from private to major in the Confederate army. At the war's end, he taught school and studied law at night in Bastrop. Sayers became a law partner of George W. Wash Jones in 1866. He was elected to the state senate in 1872, to the lieutenant governorship in 1879, and to the U.S. Congress in 1885. As Congressman (1885-1898) Sayers helped to gain federal pensions for Texas Rangers for the Indian Wars. Colonel E.M. House, who had run the campaigns of Governors Hogg and Culberson, selected Sayers to break the pattern of attorneys general succeeding to the governor's chair.

Sayers was elected governor in 1898, and re-elected in 1900. He coped with three major disasters: the Huntsville Penitentiary fire of 1899, the Brazos River flood of 1899, and the Galveston storm of 1900. Sayers returned to law practice after his retirement, and was on the University of Texas Board of Regents during its power struggle with Governor James E. Ferguson in 1916. He served on the Industrial Accident Board (1915-1917), the Board of Legal Examiners (1922-1926), and the Board of Pardon Advisors (1927). Sayers died in Austin on May 15, 1929.

Scope and Contents of the Records

Types of records are correspondence, reports, telegrams, lists, petitions, attorney general opinions, clippings, letterpress books, and financial records dating from 1886 to 1903, with the bulk of the materials dating from 1899 to 1903. Records are of Joseph D. Sayers' terms as governor of Texas. Materials relate to three disasters that occurred during Sayers' term in office: the fire at the Huntsville Penitentiary, the Brazos River flood, and the Galveston Island hurricane and flood. The governor handled the collection and disbursement of relief funds. Other documents reveal information about quarantines against human and animal disease, an outbreak of smallpox in Laredo, railroads, the World's Fair, and state agency business. Several letters and reports deal with an incident in which a train carrying African-American U.S. troops was fired upon near Houston. Correspondence with Elisabet Ney and Adelia Dunovant concerns statues and monuments to Stephen F. Austin, Sam Houston, and Albert Sidney Johnson. Also included are recommendations and requests for appointment to office; requests for pardons, paroles, extradition, and rewards; and letters from judges disqualifying themselves from hearing certain cases. Correspondents include Elisabet Ney, Adelia Dunovant, the Railroad Commission, other federal, state and local officials, contributors of relief funds, and citizens of Texas.
