In August 1840 a thousand Comanche braves struck Victoria and Linnville, destroying Linnville and looting thousands of horses and goods. Texans under Houston Burleson and McCulloch regrouped to meet them at Plum Creek, where a short, bold battle ended with Texan losses and Comanche retreat. The clash marked a rare Texan victory in a fierce regional war path.
