Fannin has three final requests. 1. That he be shot through the heart, like a soldier. 2. That his watch be given to his family. 3. That he be given a decent Christian burial. The officer assures Fannin that his wishes will be carried out.

Fannin is shot in the face, his watch is taken as spoils of war and he is later burned on the funeral pyre with the rest of his men.

As the order to fire is given, some Texians curse at their executioners, while others wave their hats aloft, shouting "Hurrah for Texas!" Yet others fall to their knees in prayer. They were told that they were going home and even sang "Home Sweet Home". They were young. They were hopeful. They were happy. They were murdered. Remember Goliad.

Was Fannin actually gullible enough to believe prisoners would be taken?
