1831List3518New York City 1831. Two-page printed circular measuring 7 ¾ x 12 ¾ inches with manuscript note from Aaron H. Palmer. Folded with some small tears larger tear at seal not intersecting with text. Overall excellent. Aaron Haight Palmer 1779–1863 was the director of the “American and Foreign Agency for Claimsâ€â€”essentially a high-end collections agency—and later Consul General of the Republic of Ecuador. He was extremely well-connected and his activities included a tour of Europe and Asia to gather information about commerce there for the Rothschilds.1 <br /> <br /> Offered here is an 1831 circular from Palmer’s Agency signed by Palmer and sent to A. Lang Esq. in Selkirk Scotland. The circular advertises the sale of “a large tract of land lying on the Gulf of Mexico in East Florida†which “is owned in sole propriety by Richard S. Hackley Esq. an American citizen.†Hackley 1770–1843 a merchant and later US Consul in Spain had been deeded twelve million acres of land around present-day Tampa by the Duke of Alagon in 1819—who himself had been granted the land by Ferdinand VII in 1817. The circular extols the virtues of the land for sale especially Tampa as “a favorable site for the foundations of a great maritime city†and Chatham Bay’s “proximity to the West India marketsâ€. At the time Florida was in the midst of the Seminole Wars; the Treaty of Payne’s Landing would soon demand that all Indigenous people in Florida leave for Indian Territory. It is not clear what came of Palmer’s attempt to sell Hackley’s land; the latter’s heirs’ claims to his estate were settled in 1908 when the US Supreme Court decided that the Kingdom of Spain had annulled the grant prior to the Adams-OnÃs Treaty giving Florida to the US.<br /> <br /> We find one copy of the circular on OCLC. Of interest to historians of the settlement of Florida.<br /> <br /> 1 Jessica Lepler “‘There is no need for anyone to go to America’: commercial correspondence and nineteenth-century globalisation†Rothschild Archive https://www.rothschildarchive.org/materials/no_need_to_go_to_america.pdf accessed February 12 2026. unknown

187231647Tallahassee: Charles H. Walton State Printer 1872. Stitched untrimmed and uncut. 350 2 blanks 76 pp. Except for a spotted title page which is chipped at the blank corners a clean Very Good copy.<br /> <br /> An informative Journal recounting Floridians' resistance to Radical Reconstruction. Governor Harrison Reed's Message addresses ongoing disturbances and "fatal and disgraceful violence. Nine-tenths of the suffering induced has fallen upon Republicans and mainly upon colored citizens-- giving unerring evidence that these excesses have been strongly tinctured by if they have not entirely originated in political prejudice." Many murders and disruptions had occurred in Calhoun and Jackson Counties forcing citizens to flee their homes and seek shelter in other parts of the State. A Committee of Five was appointed "to examine into the cause of said murders and to ascertain why the perpetrators have not been brought to justice." <br /> The Committee concluded that "there exists an organized band whose object is to resist the laws and who are the supposed authors of the many murders and outrages committed in the county." Threats of violence and a "reign of terror" had deterred witnesses from coming forward. In Jackson County "no less than one hundred and eighty -four murders fifteen of the number being women and children and almost the entire number being colored people brutally assassinated by this band of outlaws for daring to think for themselves." Similar outrages occurred in Lafayette and other counties. <br /> Governor Reed Florida's governor from 1868-73 faced impeachment charges from this Assembly as he had in 1868 and 1870. He was later charged in sixteen Articles with illegally issuing state bonds embezzlement and bribery. The charges were dismissed. The Assembly treated other matters of government including special elections marred by violence; "an act to incorporate Brown's Theological Institute" now Edward Waters College founded in 1866 to educate former slaves and considered the oldest historically black college in Florida. Senate Bill No 82 "to be entitled an act to incorporate the Buckingham Smith Asylum for the colored people of St. Augustine" was passed. Charles H. Walton, State Printer unknown
