Excerpt from History of Early Jacksonville Florida: Being an Authentic Record of Events From the Earliest Times to and Including the Civil War In the preparation of this work every effort has been made to use only reliable, authentic data. References are given whenever possible, and where'the reference work is thoroughly indexed, only the title is named. A considerable portion of the matter has never been published before, being the recollections of old citizens, to whom the thanks of the author, and others finding pleasure or profit in these pages, are due; and especially to Mrs. William M. Bostwick, who has given much data and most valuable assistance in the preparation of this book. Some years ago, it was the custom of several of the oldest residents to meet and talk over early days. Many of these old timers have since passed away, but Mrs. Bostwick possesses notes made at the meetings, and much of this matter appears in this book. The author is in no way connected with the sale of this book and receives no remuneration there from, he being content with the privilege of thus placing in permanent form what is believed to be an authentic history of our city during a period for which data are now scarce and becoming more difficult to obtain with the passing of every year.
