The Leading Grocers
first thing I remember seeing" after
entering Florida, was a plow, run
ning without a man, horse or steam
attached to it, doing pretty good
work.
At MonticCllo, Fla., wo struck
the' Dixie Highway nnd wcjhad an
excellent road until we got to Live
Oak. From there it was not so
good until we arrived at Lake lity!
We were within fifty-nine miles of
Jacksonville and had fifty miles of
the worse sand I was ever in.
Most of the time we had the car in
intermediate gear, pulling through
the sand.
Late in the afternoon we came
to a large monument out in the
woods. On going to it we found
it was erected to our Confederate
dead, the battle of Olustee having
been fought there. Some ten
thousand men engaged in -the fight,
the Confederates gaining the day,
leaving two thousand Federal sold
iers dead while they had lost one
thousand.
We arrived in Jacksonville about
first dark, passed through and ar
rived in St. Augustine about pine
o’clock that night, tired and worn
•out.. We all went to Mr. C. A.
Pelham’s and spent the night, he
being my brother and the object of
our trip.
The next day we went back to
Jacksonville and returned to St.
Augustine about one p. m. In the
afternoon wo went to Anaslasia
Island. The first thing of interest
was the Light House one hundred
and sixty-five feet high. The view
from this place is the best in Flor
ida. We also saw the wireless - sta
tion at this place. A little farther
down we came to the Coquince
Anaries, the place the peculiar shell
rock was taken, from which Fort
Marion was built. We went on to
South Beach and had a view of the
broad Atlantic, this being the first
time my father had ever seen the
Atlantic ocean. The beach is 18
miles long and 100 yds wide at low
tide and as hard and smooth as
asphult pavement.
We saw the Alligator farm, there
being hundreds of them in captiv
ity. There was the burning Springs
one of the wonders of the world.
This peculiar water was discovered
in 1893 by parties boring for an
artesian well at a depth of 120 feet.
A mineral flow was struck whioh
was so strong they were flooded
out and compelled to quit. After
flowing two years, its mineral and
burning qualities \yere discovered
and was piped and placed on ex
hibition.
There were some of the largest
turtles I ever saw. The shell of a
leather back measured 5 1-2 feet in
length, and must have weighed a
thousand pounds or more when
alivo. No doubt if he were alive
and could talk, he would bo able to
tell all about the landing of Ponce
De Leon. This island can be
reached either by trolley or auto
mobile.
The next morning we went to see
the old Slave Market in the heart
of the city. From there we went
to old Fort Marion. Being an ex-
sc/ldicr myself, T. was very interest
ed in the fort . It is still kept up by
the United States. 1 shall not take
time to toll how it was built on the
outside. Some of the old guns arc
still there, but not mounted:—pur
modern guns would soon demolish
it. Guide No. 2 took me through
the inside. The first place we went
was to the prison. Here men were
kept in rags and filth long ago. I
siw where the torture rack ,had
bpon. When they wished to make
a man- tell what he knew, he was
put «n this rack in a dark room
his ankles bound iTi chains, Ins
hands wore lied to a windlass and
was turned until lie, told what ho
knew, if ho did not. (ell ho was
torn to pieces. In the corner of
the room was quick sand Into which
he was thrown anti soon sank put
of sight and on to the ocean, where
lie was eaten by fish. In one of
these rooms, Oceola, the great
Indian chief was imprisoned for
eleven mold hs and died of. con
sumption, soon after lfis release
from prison;
1 left the fort and went to, the
city gate, on through the narrow
est street in this : .eounlry, it being
0 feel 11 incliel wide. I also saw
the oldest building there and many
other things that I cannot recollect
at present. After spending two
days there 1 returned to Cairo.
Grady county was the best place I
Saw while on the trip.
