The Nine Old Wooden Forts Of St. Augustine, Part Ii, Jeannette Thurber Conner
The Nine Old Wooden Forts Of St. Augustine, Part Ii, Jeannette Thurber Conner
Florida Historical Quarterly
After Drake burned the fort at St. Augustine in 1586, the settlers gave the name of San Marcos to the wooden building which took its place - Fort Number Seven. They had long wanted and asked for a fort of stone, and it would seem as if the discovery of coquina by Pedro Menendez Marques, in 1580, should have helped to bring about the realization of their wishes; but always, something came up to prevent it.

The First Spanish-American War, A. H. Phinney
The First Spanish-American War, A. H. Phinney
Florida Historical Quarterly
This is a better title for a story of the disturbance that occurred in Florida in 1812 than the one usually given to it, viz: The Patriot War. The so-called patriots were nearly all citizens of the United States from Georgia and Tennessee. They were supported by soldiers and gunboats of the United States. They were under the orders of an agent of the United States and were financed, by the United States. That the events did not provoke a real war between Spain and this country is only explained by the fact that Spain had been drained of men …

The Nine Old Wooden Forts Of St. Augustine, Jeannette Thurber Conner
The Nine Old Wooden Forts Of St. Augustine, Jeannette Thurber Conner
Florida Historical Quarterly
Florida is the fortunate possessor of one of this country’s most interesting monuments of the past - the impressive Spanish fort at St. Augustine. The sketch of its history which the docile traveller hears, as he and other amiable sightseers follow the guide like lambs, seems for the most part colorless, sensational and incomplete.

The Occupation Of Pensacola Bay, 1689-0698, Part Ii, William Edward Dunn
Florida Historical Quarterly
There were two purposes in the coming of the Spaniards to America. One was the desire for gain; the other the hope of making Christians of the natives. Unfortunately the two conflicted. The fierce desire for gold, that led to the inhuman treatment of the Indians, for a time rendered of no avail the efforts of the priests.
The Truth Regarding "Tiger-Tail", Isabella M. Williams
The Truth Regarding "Tiger-Tail", Isabella M. Williams
Florida Historical Quarterly
Dictionaries do not agree in all things, but upon one point there is no difference of opinion: history is avowedly a recital of actual occurrences. Yet how often have we known blatant inaccuracies in historical records ; and how many times have we accepted as true some fictitious statement which was meted out to us, through the ignorance, conjecture or lack of information of some chronicler!

George I. F. Clarke, C. Seton Fleming
George I. F. Clarke, C. Seton Fleming
Florida Historical Quarterly
One of the most interesting characters in the early history of Florida was George I. F. Clarke, an Englishman. He was engineer for the British Government during its possession of Florida and continued this work throughout the succeeding Spanish period and for many years after Florida’s cession to the United States. He is frequently referred to by name and reputation in American State Papers, Public Lands, especially Vol. IV containing the reports of the Land Commissioners appointed by the United States Government to pass upon land claims in Florida. Clarke made many of the surveys of royal grants, and was …
