Florida And The Presidential Election Of 1928, Herbert A. Doherty, Jr.
Florida And The Presidential Election Of 1928, Herbert A. Doherty, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
Presidential elections in the United States have furnished historians with interesting and extensive fields for research. In recent times the election which has perhaps furnished the richest field is the presidential race of 1928. This contest featured the elements of racial and religious intolerance as well as the diverse conflicts of section against section, “wet” against “dry”, liberal against conservative, and, especially, party loyalty versus moral conviction.

More About Dr. John Gorrie And Refrigeration, Ruth E. Mier
Florida Historical Quarterly
The principal source of the numerous brief sketches that have been written on the life of Dr. John Gorrie is four articles appearing in Ice and Refrigeration, of Chicago; and the first of these was, in the main, the source of the other three. Captain George H. Whiteside, whose brother Samuel J. Whiteside was a friend and contemporary of Dr. Gorrie’s, was the author of that article, entitled “Dr. John Gorrie, Sketch of the Career of the Original Inventor of the Ice Machine or Device for the Mechanical Production of Ice and Refrigeration.” His admiration for the man whose name …

From Pensacola To St. Augustine In 1827: A Journey Of The Rt. Rev. Michael Portier, Michael Portier
Florida Historical Quarterly
Michel Portier was born in Montbrison, France, in 1795. Entering the priesthood, he came to the United States in 1817, and in 1826 was made first Vicar Apostolic of the newly created vicariate of Alabama and the Floridas, in which there were but three parishes: Mobile, Pensacola and St. Augustine. It was Bishop Portier who in 1830 established Spring Hill College at Mobile, the influence of which on education in the South has been felt for more than a century. This account of his journey across Florida was written in French and published in Annales de la Propagation de la …

Napoleon B. Broward: The Years To The Governorship, Samuel Proctor
Napoleon B. Broward: The Years To The Governorship, Samuel Proctor
Florida Historical Quarterly
James Russell Lowell called Grover Cleveland the most typical American since Lincoln. Close to Cleveland could be placed Napoleon Bonaparte Broward. He was typical, but he was also unique. Limited in many ways and things, he was rich in others. His was an astonishing career: that of a man seemingly doomed to mediocrity and obscurity, yet whose worth and unremitting efforts for the betterment of his fellowmen have given him a place among those who have done most for Florida.

Joseph Byrne Lockey, Florida Historical Society

Very few natives of Florida have written of her history. This will not be true always, though fate has at times intervened-as in the case of Joseph B. Lockey who died on September 24 last, he having recently moved to Florida to write of his native state.
The Episode Of Osceola’S Wife, Kenneth W. Porter
The Episode Of Osceola’S Wife, Kenneth W. Porter
Florida Historical Quarterly
One of the best-known stories connected with the Seminole War is that the intense hostility of Osceola, the young Indian leader whose name is known in this relationship almost to the exclusion of all others, was in large measure due to the seizure and carrying away into bondage of his young wife, whose mother was a runaway slave. This story is commonly found not only in Florida guide-books and popular accounts of the Seminole Indians, but also in standard histories. It has come to be accepted as a fact requiring no special reference.
Florida In North Carolina Spanish Records, Part Ii, Albert C. Manucy
Florida In North Carolina Spanish Records, Part Ii, Albert C. Manucy
Florida Historical Quarterly
The North Carolina papers show intimately the operation of Spanish colonial government. Even more intimately, perhaps, they reveal its shortcomings through the media of complaints from one side or the other, residencias of the various regimes, and innumerable autos, memorials and testimonios. Complaints were to be expected, since politics and personalities were involved. Occasionally, however, there were bona fide instances of maladministration or criminal carelessness, such as the well-known cases of Rebolledo in 1657 and Sanchez in 1736.
Stephen Russell Mallory, Part Iii, Occie Clubbs
Stephen Russell Mallory, Part Iii, Occie Clubbs
Florida Historical Quarterly
While few of Stephen Mallory’s recorded speeches in the United States Senate are great oratorical efforts, most of them are replete with logic and some are eloquent. The reader today is especially impressed with his breadth of information and with the pertinancy of his arguments to the subject as well as often to the interests of his constituents. The savoire faire for which he was famous and of which Pensacolians, contemporaries of his, still speak, was never found wanting, even when debate became acrimonious or when an issue was decided contrary to his wishes. It must be recalled that he …
Locating The County Seat Of Jackson County, Dorothy Dodd
Locating The County Seat Of Jackson County, Dorothy Dodd
Florida Historical Quarterly
Jackson county, when established by the act of August 12, 1822, extended from the Choctawhatchee river to the Suwannee. Terms of court were directed to be held at “the Big Spring, on the Chipola," the present Blue Spring. When Gadsden county was created in 1823 from that portion of Jackson county lying east of the Apalachicola, the Legislative Council directed that courts for Jackson county be held “at the Big Spring on the Choctahatcha” until a county seat should be permanently established. The council further provided for the appointment, by the County Court, of three commissioners to select a permanent …

The Everglades Before Reclamation, J. E. Dovell
Florida Historical Quarterly
This account of the Everglades and their early history is one result of the author’s extensive research into all available sources. The full story of the Everglades including reclamation is the subject of an unpublished dissertation by the author which was accepted as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of North Carolina.

A Soldier’S View Of The Seminole War: Three Letters Of James B. Dallam, William D. Hoyt, Jr.
A Soldier’S View Of The Seminole War: Three Letters Of James B. Dallam, William D. Hoyt, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
Three letters from James B. Dallam, a soldier in the United States Army engaged in the war with the Seminole Indians, provide an interesting view of conditions in Florida in 1838-39 and of the progress of operations there during a lull in the fighting. 1 Written from three different posts-Fort Harllee, Fort Clinch, and Tampa Bay-the epistles describe events over a period of six months and refer hopefully to the prospects of peace. Sandwiched between accounts of negotiations with the Indians are accounts of the country itself, with considerable praise for the healthy climate and fine soil, and also the …
W. D. Chipley, West Florida’S Mr. Railroad, Edmund C. Williamson
W. D. Chipley, West Florida’S Mr. Railroad, Edmund C. Williamson
Florida Historical Quarterly
The man referred to was William Dudley Chipley of Pensacola, builder of the railroad from Pensacola to Chattahoochee and the Apalachicola river. Chipley was fast becoming one of the leading political figures in the state, and needless to say, he was on the other side of the fence both in local and state politics from the Pensacola Commercial which called him “Major Octopus.”
Florida History (1650-1750) In The Spanish Records Of North Carolina State Department Of Archives And History, Albert C. Manucy
Florida History (1650-1750) In The Spanish Records Of North Carolina State Department Of Archives And History, Albert C. Manucy
Florida Historical Quarterly
When the pirate’s bullet lodged in Captain Arguelles’ leg one fine spring day (March 30, 1683), that painful detail was faithfully written down-not once, but several times and in several different ways. Consequently, although the brave captain was wounded almost three centuries ago, today’s historian can be certain the accident was not hearsay: it actually happened. He knows exactly where it took place, and when; and further, he has a good idea of how the whole affair came about.
