On 6 March 1836 at the Battle of the Alamo, Santa Anna's forces killed 189 Texan defenders. After some time in exile in the U.S. in 1837 Santa Anna returned to Mexico to retire to his hacienda in Veracruz, called Manga de Clavo. In 1838 Santa Anna lost a leg due to amputation as a result of a battle during the Pastry War. From 1855 to 1874, Santa Anna lived in exile in Cuba, the United States, Colombia, and the Danish island of Saint Thomas. In the 1850s he traveled to New York with the first shipment of chicle.
