On May 14, 1846, the U.S. Congress declared that war had begun with Mexico. In 1847, Nicholas P. Trist was sent on a diplomatic mission to deliver Polk's peace terms to the Mexican president, Santa Anna. Trist eventually negotiated a settlement on February 2, 1848, that contained nearly everything Polk had hoped for.
