Answer:

Moses and Stephen Austin contracted to bring "500 families on the vacant lands remaining within the limits of the colony already established."

Step-by-step explanation:

They don't want the Mexican state to be all Mexican. So the government signed a contract to let some American people in, but at last, the Mexican soldiers shot them all and died.
