Dear Syd: Received your New York telegram, but believe you will be back in the State soon enough to give your personal attention to the handling of the Isleworth pineapples. You will see by the enclosed copies of letters to Randall that Browne has been longer cleaning up the mid-season oranges than expected, consequently he is not only behind schedule in getting busy on the tangerines but also is dead on his feet. He does not want to do anything except what he thinks he wants to do, and is liable not to follow instructions and then give some plausible reason for his failure. He was in here a few minutes ago and was instructed to step on picking the balance of the tangerines. Unless there are picked, packed and shipped, they will not be worth moving .The fruit is ripe, and the keeping quantities have been undermined by the cold weather and dry weather. The entire day the pickers have only brought into the house 75 boxes, and at this rate the crop will never be cleaned up. The Selling Department have placed some cars of Isleworth on the basis of $3.50 with a discount of 25¢ on the Coat of Arms. The Selling Department is instructed not to sell any more cars at Isleworth agreeing to furnish Isleworth Brand only and leaving all the Coat of Arms on hand. This has been done in several instances and the quicker the practice is stopped the better. If we are forced in the auction, it is a great deal better to go there with both brands than with one. The Selling Department have gotten it into their heads that Coat of Arms was second grade, which it is not. The operating program at Isleworth at the present time is tangerines, and will be until Browne can furnish additional pickers to use in gathering grapefruit or oranges if wanted. Pratt is away, but exposed back tonight. Of course everything that was done during his absence has been wrong and should be changed immediately. It is beginning to look as if we would have to go to the bat with Pratt, as his views on handling the frost situation are absolutely diametrically opposed to everybody else's, as you will see from the enclosed copies of telegrams and letters. It is my opinion that the Fruitman's Club have accomplished a mighty good work in holding back shipments, and we do not think that now is the right time to make any change. Let's play our hand out, and keep away from Federal and State control in the handling of our fruit. Of course there will be frost-damaged fruit move into the markers, be condemned and dumped. In my opinion this will enhance the value of Florida oranges, grapefruit and tangerines from groves that escaped unhurt.

Dear Syd: ISLEWORTH: The writer has just turned from there. They are now picking tangerines across the canal and expect to finish Wednesday. During the last week the fruit has deteriorated greatly, due to hot weather, and is showing the effects of the cold. They only had twelve pickers at work in spite of the fact that the writer has been after Browne for the last two weeks to increase his picking force. Instead of getting larger it has really shrunk. During the past few days the weather has been very hot and the trees on the higher parts of the grove are beginning to show signs of wilting. There is one block of trees near where the young alligator pears are planted that should be irrigated, and the writer so advised Browne. unfortunately, making up the plat is a good excuse for Browne attending to this job and not getting on the outside. Browne is instructed to get together some additional pickers, using some in clearing up the tangerines and others in picking fruit from some of the trees that are dropping heavily. We also want this increased force to use in picking the pineapples, which will soon begin to drop heavily. I am very much in hopes that when you reach Atlanta you will find conditions there in such shape that you can get back here some time this week. Glad to report that the Valencias are holding on in good shape but there is a big waste in the grapefruit. Fred Lord, of Lord & Spencer, is now at Titusville going over McNiff's holdings and is due to reach here Tuesday night or Wednesday morning. He wanted a price on the pineapple oranges now en route to New York but we decided not to make any change in our marketing plans. We may make him a price on the last car from the White and Kiser Groves. The White GRoves picked over 1200 field boxes. Stanley is instructed to pick all over varieties except the Valencias from all the trees in that block, and then make his arrangements to pick the seedling oranges from the Goodall Grove. In this way we can keep some fruit moving from that territory during the next month or six weeks. When Lord is here on Wednesday I will take him out to Isleworth and see if I can interest him in the balance of the grapefruit. If we can make a guarantee joint account deals we may do so.

Isleworth Grove covered a total of 1,300 acres along the Butler Chain of Lakes. Between 1894 and 1895, Central Florida was hit by several freezes and most of the citrus crop was destroyed. Chase & Company did not grow citrus crops again until 1904 when Joshua came back from an extended stay in California. Between 1894 and 1900, different types of pesticide equipment was created, including equipment driven by steam, machines, and horses.Randall Chase joined in the family business soon after his brother, Sydney Chase, Jr., did in 1922.

CARLOT DISTRIBUTORS CITRUS FRUITS AND VEGETABLES JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA June 18 1920 Mr. S. O. Chase, Sanford, Florida. Dear Syd: ISLEWORTH NEW ACREAGE: Note yours of the 18th on this subject. The location of the tract is not quite clear in my mind but am under the impression it is somewhere in the northeastern section. The assortment you suggest is satisfactory to me but would like if possible to have the King Oranges of the S.M.Stephens strain. These King Orange trees at Greylocks were more like the ordinary orange trees than any King Orange trees that I know of in the State. It is barely possible that the normal shape of these trees is due in the fact that the shoots were pruned from time to time and not permitted to get too high in the air. We believe it would be good policy to iop[?] the King Orange shoots when the trees are young and endeavor to have them sprout out as close to the ground as possible. You might try to find out from Stephens whether he made any such effort or whether the trees were just naturally cut back by cold and assumed the present shape without artificial encouragement. The pineapple variety at Isleworth has never taken the high color characteristic of this variety elsewhere in the State. We are wondering whether or not the strain at Isleworth is absolutely pure, although we know that you secured same from Merritts Island. It is hard to beat the Valencias, and we do not know of any location in the State where this variety can be more safely carried over than at Isleworth. If you have any excess trees at Isleworth, suggest that you take the matter up with B.W. Haynes of the Wilson & Toomer Company, as they have been buying a great many trees for the lands they are planting near Davenport.

Upon my visit there this morning, Magunson and Hutchinson estimated the balance of the crop still to go as follows: Mid-season oranges 11 cars grapefruit 10 cars Valencias 50 cars There was a regular gale blowing and the sharp sand was cutting the tender growth on the trees, both young and old. It was especially severe on the new growth of trees recently planted. Your instructions about irrigation are being carried out and the tractors were active. Crowell, Smith and Hutchinson are instructed to step on the picking and shipping of the balance of the mid-season oranges. The fruit is dead ripe and is not only going off in appearance but is also falling off. The Pineapples on the block near the packing house which are usually of splendid quality, are very inferior. Hutchinson is instructed to load in bulk all of the Coat of Arms grade. He is also instructed to include in the bulk car, any low and off grade grapefruit. It will pay us better to make up mixed cars of bulk oranges and grapefruit than to pack the Coat of Arms grade at the prices now ruling. The inspector at the house expressed the opinion that there was much less fruit in the State than estimated by the Clearing House. He could not understand how it was possible for there to be 30,000 cars still to be shipped. He did not know where it was. Very truly yours, JCC:AF.

Dear Syd, ISLEWORTH GRAPEFRUIT - All of the fruit now on the trees is from off-bloom. We have only moved about sixty (60) boxes in a car to Angelo, which realized $3.75 FOB. Out of the same lot we included eight (8) boxes in a car which moved to New York auction and which sold on the 23rd at the $5.00, which is equivalent to $3.75 FOB. The car for export which moves today runs sizes mostly 70s and 80s, with some few sizes larger and smaller. The fruit is thick-skinned, inclined to be nosey, and is certainly not over-supplied with juice. It may be a mistake to send this fruit to England, as it may not realize as much there as it would in the markets in this country. This morning the writer looked over the grapefruit sill on the trees, and finds that the quality is going off very rapidly. He instructed Hutchinson, and also Smith, to pick and move two (2) cars of this fruit during the coming week, and believe it will be advisable to do this, as the writer feels the prices will go lower and the quality will deteriorate. There may be all together in the neighborhood of ten (10) cars of this fruit, and we netter string it out with the Valencias. Unfortunately Hutchinson always has some excuse when we want to rush operations. This morning his truckman was laid up and three (3) of his packers were away. The coming week we want to load out on an average of two (2) cars of Valencias per day. Hutchinson was instructed last week to provide a sufficient force to handle the job, and promised to do so. We wanted two (2) cars of the Valencias to move today. He only got one car going, claiming that owing to fall-downs he could not get it packed in time to have it precooled. Unless Hutchinson can show himself big enough for the job at Isleworth, we better try to place someone else there next season when we will have so much more fruit to put thru the house.

Dear Syd, ISLEWORTH PACK: Today the writer visited Isleworth taking with him Messrs. Miller and Gorman of the Fruit Auction Company of New York. Mr. Gorman is the chief auctioneer on his first visit to Florida. Both of these gentlemen are sincerely interested in having the Isleworth cars sell for as much money as the same variety from any other packing house in Orange County. They are of the opinion that the Lake Apopka packing house under the Fellowship and Crane brands beat us out not in quality but on a heavier bulge pack. These gentlemen inspected the boxes at Isleworth and were of the opinion that the nailer-up was not bringing the center strap close enough down to the fruit. There is a transit shrinkage and when the boxes reach the other end the lid stands away from the fruit, and the oranges are loose giving the impression that there is under-sizing and slack pack. Both of these gentlemen were of the opinion that some of this trouble would be overcome if we did away with the center cleat, and the writer believes that this would be advisable. If you have any more crate material coming, please have this center cleat omitted, or you can include additional tops that are not cleated. They thought possibly that the two piece top without the cleat in the center drawn down snug in the center would give the appearance of a bigger fatter bulge. It might be advisable to try out these suggestions at the earliest possible moment. I am passing them on to you for what they are worth. They also advocated the use of the gum box, as they thought it make a more attractive package. The writer does not all together agree with them in this matter.

Dear Syd: Mr. Cartright, who has charge of all of the Real Estate operations of Rollins College, wishes to secure from Isleworth 24 nursery trees, assorted to Hamlins, Valencias, Pineapples, 2 grapefruit, and 1 Tangerine. To divide them evenly would give 7 each of the principal varieties, with the 2 grapefruit and 1 Tangerine. There are for the small plot of ground owned by the Treasurer of Rollins College, Mr. Brown. Would it be possible for you to have these gotten out by Crowell, and what day next week could they be delivered at Winter Park? Will you please handle this with Crowell today, and let me know so Mr. Cartright can be advised. You know he gave this order some time ago, but you advised waiting until later to avoid any frost damage. Yours very truly, JCC:HMR.

LANCASTER: Attached find letter from Lancaster and carbon of reply. I am surprised at its tone, as it intimates that Browne and his force from Haines City are attempting something that is dishonest. We certainly cannot afford to have anyone in charge of the work who is not straight. I am sorry Lancaster goes away feeling sore as you advised him at the start that you must have someone living on the grove, and if he was not able to do it, you would get someone else. He probably thought he could live off the property and handle it just as well by being there three times a week. If Browne falls down on his job Lancaster may be willing to return there, or someone else will have to be found.

CARLOT DISTRIBUTORS CITRUS FRUITS AND VEGETABLES JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA May 1 1920 Mr. S. O. Chase, Sanford, Florida. Dear Syd: ISLEWORTH OPERATIONS: We note your two letters of the 30th regarding the troubles, real and imaginary, that are holding up and delaying shipment of the balance of the Valencia crop. We are prepared to let Nature take its course, and we are beginning to feel that the good luck that has attended the marketing of this crop up to the present time will continue to the finish. There are not enough Valencia Oranges moving out of the State to supply the demand in the principal consuming markets of the country. FLorida Oranges have a big advantage over oranges from California and elsewhere owing to the fact that the Florida Oranges are juicy, very sweet, and can be eaten without sugar. There appears to be friction instead of cooperation between Sagendorf and Morrison, but we believe that when the crop is shipped and Sagendorf away, Morrison will be easier to handle and will take good care of the grove work. Yours very truly, J.C.C. If you are making good collections from your [?] sales [?] surplus here to offset your [?] requires to pay of [?] [?]. Don't forget that [?] 500 victim notes for [?].

Dear Syd: Tried to reach you this morning from the house but found that you were not expected back until some time this afternoon. Hope you had a comfortable trip and all hands returned in good trim. I visited Isleworth this morning and found the fruit coming to the house was of good texture but mostly Bronze or Golden, with a small percentage of Bright. I talked the matter over with Hutchinson and finally decided to make the regular Isleworth Grade, which is being packed under Chase Brand, and the same grade in golden or bronze, also packed under Chase Brand. This will make the cars going out Chase grade and Chase grade golden. The balance will be Coat of Arms. There may be six or eight hundred boxes of this grade of fruit. I did not visit where the picking operations were going on as I was there last week. The fruit is still over-running the original estimates. I instructed the picking force to pick the Valencias on the island as long as they have their field boxes and ladders down there in that part of the grove. This will make the final picking of Valencias from the block east of the packing house. I did not see Browne, but drove over the property, branching off from the bungalow for over the hill and back along Lake Laura. None of the trees showed any indications of suffering from dry weather. Neither did any of the trees on the groves along the road show any wilt. Noah appeared to think that Browne and his force were doing a very good job in giving the ground a good wetting. Noah tells me that the Roadway Department find that the last line east of the grove that crosses Lake Butler Tibbett and the south end of the island, and then into Overstreet's, will cost $10,000.00 more to build than the road through the grove. He also stated that the Windermere people were putting on all the pressure they could to have the new road go through the center of the grove and not along the lakefront as originally agreed. This information comes to him through confidential sources, and he wants an opportunity to talk matters over with sources, and he wants an opportunity to talk matters over with you just as soon as you return. You know this Windermere outfit Mr. S. O. Chase -2- do not stop at anything when they want something. He also made the statement that the Windermere route is the route favored by Browne. Noah also wanted to see you concerning the cost of clearing two tracts of land, as he thought it would be advisable for you to have the cleared land remeasured and then determine something about costs. Will explain this to you when we meet. Yours very truly, JCC/fs Is Format Of Digital reproduction of original letter from Joshua Coffin Chase to Sydney Octavius Chase, May 4, 1927.

Dear Syd: This will acknowledge receipt of yours of May 8th. Note that you expected to spend to spend the grater part of Thursday at Isleworth going over matters with Browne. We very much hope that Browne can not only cut his working force but make economies in wages. As you keep all the books, you are in position to make comparison on what the expenses are now compared with what the expenses were under Lancaster. Of course Browne goes more into details and in all probability his expenses are 50 or 100% greater than they were under Lancaster. No one can foretell what citrus prices will be the coming season but we do know that the crop is going to be large, and unless the Florida Citrus Exchange works miracles, we haven't any reason to believe that the prices will be a bit better next year than they have been this year. Consequently, if we are going to break even at Isleworth or any other properties, the fruit will have to be produced on a rock bottom basis. Just as soon as the returns are all in from Crescent, Wiley Avenue, Neamathla[?] and Isleworth, also Nocatee[?], will mail you statements showing how the accounts stand on the Jacksonville books. We will be interested to learn whether any of the groves pay anything in excess of expenses.

Upon my visit there this morning there was one car packed and in the precooling room, and a second car was well on its way. These will be the only two cars moved from Isleworth today, making a total of 12 cars for the week. Hutchinson estimates the balance of the crop approximately as follows, both in field crates in the house and on the trees: 4 cars field crates in the packing house 5 cars on the trees to be picked Monday and Tuesday. This fruit shows much better color than the fruit now in the house. 1 car approximately, of Lamb Summer and 1 car of Pineapple late bloom. 11 cars approximately, to be packed the coming week unless there is some ruling against it. The writer will hold over in the precooling rooms, 3 or 4 cars of good colored Valencias for loading and shipping Monday, week beginning May 20th. We believe we can load all of these cars and move them for sale in New York the following week, as small sized are in demand and bringing the most money in New York. We would do well with the Lamb Summer and late bloom Pineapples. Attached find copy of a letter to Crowell which is self-explanatory. If you have any reason for disagreeing with these views, please countermand same. The writer does not want Dr. Newell or anyone connected with the Plant Board to complain later if trouble develops at Isleworth, that he prevented the Plant Board clean-up crew mopping up Isleworth. We only don't want to prevent it, be we want to invite them to go in and find fruit that may have been left on the trees by our crews. Yours very truly, JCC:AF.

Dear Syd: When the writer reached Isleworth this morning, he found two foremen there who were anxious to put a force in the grove to pick any fruit remaining on the trees. Crowell had driven them over a part of the grove north of the railroad, these two men were only able to locate one late bloom orange. Upon my arrival they wanted to know about a force coming into the grove tomorrow morning with trucks, the writer stated to these two men that the Isleworth property was in Zone 2, and no foremen or crew with trucks operating in Zone 1, could come into property located in Zone 2. That in event Mr. Camp wished the trees cleaned it would be necessary for his to equip the force with suits that would have to be disinfected. Also that the men would have to have their shoes properly disinfected and that trucks could not enter the property as we would agree to haul and dispose of any fruit still found on the trees. Upon reaching the office the writer telephoned Dr. Camp, who agreed to instruct the foreman not to make any effort to clean up Isleworth until he gave further orders. When done, all precautionary measures will be taken with the suits of foremen and workers. Very truly yours, JCC:AF.

Dear Syd:- ISLEWORTH: Referring to your letter of the 21st reporting on your visit to Isleworth, Note Browne's opinion regarding the quantity of fruit, and trust that the output of tangerines will show equal to last year. We have been moving large bearing trees and cutting the bearing tops off of others, so that it is hardly reasonable to expect that under such circumstances the yield will show any increase. As a matter of fact, the writer believes there will be a decided falling off in the volume of business from Isleworth until the mutilated trees come back into production. TOSOHATCHEE PALMETTO: Note that J.Q.Barker, representing Major W.B. Doe,of 959 Riverside Avenue, with an office in the Bisbee Building, has made you a proposition to purchase the cabbage palmetto on the ranch on the basis of $ 2.00 per acre for the palmetto timber, paying one-half down in crash and the balance in one and two years, with the privilege of removal any time within ten years. The telephone book does not show any one by the name of J. Q. Barker but it does show W.B.Doe, Lumber, Bisbee Building, and also with an office on Commodores Point. Frank Bisbee knows practically nothing about this party with the exception that he pays his rent very promptly. He does not know of anyone in town who is well acquainted with him. We are now trying to reach George D. Baldwin,Vice-President of the Commodores Point Terminal Company, who may be able to give us some information. Will pass it along to you. Have you figured out how much acreage you have to cabbage palmetto, and considered how a contract of this kind might affect unfavorably a sale of the entire property, should an opportunity offer? It might be a disadvantage to have it hanging over the land. Yours very truly, Is Format Of Digital reproduction of original letter from Joshua Coffin Chase to Sydney Octavius Chase, May 23, 1924.

Title Chase Collection Description Select images, correspondence, and other records from the Chase Collection (MS 14) at Special and Area Studies Collections at the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida. According to the biographical sketch in the collection's finding aid: "The story of the Chases in Florida began in 1878 when Sydney Octavius Chase (1860-1941), having read about orange groves in Scribner's Magazine, came to Florida from Philadelphia. His brother, Joshua Coffin Chase (1858-1948), joined him in 1884 and together they formed Chase and Company that year. The Chase brothers came to Florida at the right time for Florida citrus and at the right time for them as investment entrepreneurs. Strong family ties in the North provided them with financial backing for their ventures. Joshua left Florida in 1895 to work in the California citrus industry. He returned to Florida in 1904 and rejoined his brother. Another brother, Randall, remained in Philadelphia and augmented his brothers' finances when convenient. Sydney and Joshua were also important civic leaders who took part in community development, most notably in the City of Sanford. Both were elected to the Sanford city commission. They also supported the development of Rollins College, worked with the Florida Historical Society, and were the benefactors of numerous charities. Chase and Company began as an insurance company and branched out to storage facilities and fertilizer sales. The latter was the beginning of the company's lucrative agricultural supply division which remained in operation throughout the existence of the company. Although citrus was the primary interest, the company also invested in other agricultural pursuits including celery in central Florida, tung oil production in Jefferson County, and winter vegetables and sugar cane in the Lake Okeechobee muck lands. The company was also involved in the peach business in Georgia and North Carolina. The company was incorporated in 1914, with the Chase brothers owning 75 percent of the stock, and reincorporated in 1948. A second generation of Chases began its involvement in the family operations when Sydney O. Chase, Jr. ( b. 1890) became a citrus buyer in 1922. He was later joined by his brother Randall who served as president of Chase and Company from 1948-1965. Outside the Chase Family, Alfred Foster, W. R. Harney, and William "Billy" Leffler figured prominently as company executives and investors. The company dissolved in 1979 when its principal assets were sold to Sunniland for $5.5 million. The Chases' interest in citrus began when Sydney came to Florida and became associated with General Henry S. Sanford. The Chases would eventually own General Sanford's experimental farm, Belair, and the Chase family home in Sanford was located there. Over the years, the Chases invested in a number of citrus groves and owned others outright. In 1912, they organized the Chase Investment Company as a holding company for their farms. Initially, the company operated the Isleworth, Nocatee, Belair, and Kelly citrus groves as well as celery farms in Sanford. The company was renamed Chase Groves, Inc. in 1951. From time to time, Chase Investment was involved in real estate in Florida and North Carolina. The latter included Fort Caswell, a former military property that was held for a time and then sold. Unquestionably, the jewel in the Chase crown was the Isleworth grove at Windermere. Isleworth's four hundred lake-tempered acres carried the Chases through many difficult times. It proved to be the principal asset at the company's demise when it was sold to golf legend Arnold Palmer in 1984. Chase Groves dissolved that same year, 100 years after the founding of Chase and Company."

Chase, Sanford, Florida. Dear Syd:- When in Orlando last week, young Carpenter, in Massey's office, spoke to me about a suit that has been instituted against the Windermere Company to upset its possession of its lands purchased from Sam Griffith. These, you know, he acquired through a tax title. The original homesteader has brought suit, and the Windermere Company is represented by Massey, Warlow & Carpenter. I am very much in hopes that the original owners win. Will be very glad to do everything we can to help the, out. Nothing would give more pleasure than to stick a knife into the ribs of that fellow, Palmer.

Isleworth Grove covered a total of 1,300 acres along the Butler Chain of Lakes. Between 1894 and 1895, Central Florida was hit by several freezes and most of the citrus crop was destroyed. Chase & Company did not grow citrus crops again until 1904 when Joshua came back from an extended stay in California. Between 1894 and 1900, different types of pesticide equipment was created, including equipment driven by steam, machines, and horses.Randall Chase joined in the family business soon after his brother, Sydney Chase, Jr., did in 1922.

Dear Syd: Enclosed find copy of a letter to W. R. Wood, which is self-explanatory. What do you think of filing a claim for spray damage to the trees at Isleworth? If we are going to get up any papers it had better be done while our recollections and records are in good shape. H. L. Frost does not expect to be down here until about January 15th. It might be a very good thing to have Crowell make up an affidavit covering the number of times spray carts operated in Isleworth. He had better look up all office records so that he may have all the dates and could give the number of the machines and the equipment used. We should also make up claims covering any and all other losses. If no one else is prepared to file these claims with the Government, we could handle them seperately. Yours very truly, JCC:GEM Encl.

Title Letter from Joshua Coffin Chase to Sydney Octavius Chase (November 26, 1921) Alternative Title Chase Correspondence (November 26, 1921) Subject Windermere (Fla.)

Citrus fruit industry--Florida Citrus--Florida Orange industry--Florida Oranges--Florida Grapefruit industry Grapefruit Lemons Description An original letter of correspondence between brothers and business partners Joshua Coffin Chase and Sydney Octavius Chase. Topics discussed in the letter include Sydney's reading report of his visit to Isleworth Grove with Mr. Barger of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, research in developing mature color on citrus fruit peels in Florida, coloring arrangements made at Belair by Chase & Company in the past, a proposition to include Barger on a guarantee and commission basis at Isleworth, the poor market sales of grapefruit, and the slow output of Isleworth Seedlings. Chase & Company was established by brothers Sydney Octavius Chase and Joshua Coffin Chase in 1884. The company sold insurance and later invested in storage facilities and fertilizer sales. Chase & Company was known mainly for its agricultural interests and maintained a series of citrus groves throughout Central Florida. The company was based out of Sanford and became one of the city's largest employers into the early twentieth century. By 1886, the Chase brothers purchased several citrus groves to expand their business, including Isleworth Grove in Windermere, Florida. Isleworth Grove covered a total of 1,300 acres along the Butler Chain of Lakes. Between 1894 and 1895, Central Florida was hit by several freezes and most of the citrus crop was destroyed. Chase & Company did not grow citrus crops again until 1904 when Joshua came back from an extended stay in California. Between 1894 and 1900, different types of pesticide equipment was created, including equipment driven by steam, machines, and horses.Randall Chase joined in the family business soon after his brother, Sydney Chase, Jr., did in 1922. Randall became the president of Chase & Company from 1948-1965. The Isleworth property stayed in the Chase family until 1984 when Franklin Chase, the son of Sydney Chase, sold the property to famed golfer Arnold Palmer.

Dear Syd: We are much interested in reading report of your visit to Isleworth with Barger of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Some good results are bound to come from all of these experiments in developing mature color on the peel of Florida citrus fruit. We have been at it probably longer than anyone else living in Florida. Our minds can go back to thettime when we had very crude coloring arrangements at Belair. It is not surprising that the lemons came out of that intense heat looking like cooked turnips. Since then we have had our experiences not only here but in California, and it is now resolving itself down to a scientific basis. With the use of gas and not heat, it is a safer proposition as far as Florida citrus fruits are concerned. Glad to note that young Barger is a self made proposition. Wonder if he would be willing to take hold of Isleworth on some kind of a guarantee and commission basis. He now knows something about developing color, and if he would be willing to put himself under you on a practical growing basis, he might be worth any additional money we are obliged to pay. The time is coming when we will need just such a man in business and we do not want to miss a good proposition. The market is away off on grapefruit. F.G.E. 29069 now at potomac Yards was a slow seller on the basis of $2,25 delivered, with 50¢ per box discount on off grades and sizes. Rather than take a slaughter price, instructed the Selling Department to divert to New York. If we are obliged to sell for less than our ideas of value, would prefer to take our medicine in the auction market. The Selling Department is very much discouraged over the outlook for grapefruit, and there is a general Mr. S. O. Chase -2- closing down of grapefruit operations. We will endeavor to confine our grapefruit shipments to f.o.b. orders or prospects and also work the markets for orders for mixed cars of oranges and grapefruit. Note with surprise that the Isleworth Seedlings are only picking four boxes of oranges per tree. This is the smallest average we have ever had.

Chase, Pres., Chase Investment Co., Sanford, Florida. Dear Sir: Attached find deposit slip covering a check for collection against T. W. Swope for $103.75, taken by Hutchinson in payment for fruit. This party at the present time has to his credit 22 cents on the books of the Florida Bank at Winter Park. He has seldom, if ever, exceeded a total of $100., and then only momentarily. He lives in Orlando, is between 25 and 30 years old, is supposed to be related to O. W. Swope, either son or nephew. Mr. Paul E. Davis, of the Winter Park Bank, has written him a note that the check is being held, and to get bust and make it good. Whether this will have any effort remains to be seen. It strikes me in the future that Hutchinson should use great care in taking checks from these truckers. If one is drawn against an Orlando or nearby bank he should, at the truckman's expense, call up that Bank to see if it is good, and if so to have it certified over the 'phone if possible, and proceed to collect without delay.

Dear Syd:- This will acknowledge yours of the 7th, and note all you have to say. There is no question in my mind but what the Isleworth grapefruit is better in size, maturity and quality than the grapefruit now being shipped by the Manatee Fruit Company. Mouser is of the same opinion, and expressed himself when here this morning of taking the matter up with Mayo to see if a permit could not be issued to have it move under the color scheme if it did not qualify under the color scheme if it did not qualify under the test. Unless we can realize on these large sizes they will soon become unmerchantable. We both know that large sizes full of juice are wanted early in the season and not wanted late in the season. A little sugar will very readily overcome the excess acidity. Grapefruit are eaten by adults and do not go to children, babies or invalids. Consequently it is not absolutely important to have the early fruit as sweet as the late fruit. The authorities do not appear to have the ability to put a stop to the shipments of the Manatee Fruit Company and we do not believe they could touch Isleworth if we conform to the color scheme and do not artificially color. This would make it necessary to use the utmost care in picking. I certainly would like to move five or ten thousand boxes of this fruit on the present market if there is any way it can be done.

Dear Syd: This morning the writer spent several hours at Isleworth, driving over the main part of the grove with Crowell, Hutchinson, and Magnuson. We now have ready for movement several cars of grapefruit of good quality, but the sizes run so strong to 96s that the writer felt it would be poor judgement to pick. I also find that unusually small sizes are the poorest, smallest, the writer has ever found on the place at this season of the year. The fruit is dropping due to the dry weather. Crowell is now irrigating for the second time the principal blocks of tangerines and pineapples. The condition of the trees throughout the property is good. We did not go over to the Lake Butler place. I am writing F. W. Davis calling his attention to the early varieties at Isleworth which would be in every way suitable to go forward in the first cars of bagged fruit. All of these varieties have very good eating qualities at the present time. Magnuson tells me that up to the present time we are about 8' of rainfall shy of normal at Isleworth. A cold winter would tear us wide open. There has been a great big improvement in the quantity and quality of the fruit on the trees on that portion of the Island that you root pruned and trimmed last season. Affectionately, JCC:HMR.

CARLOT DISTRIBUTORS CITRUS FRUITS AND VEGETABLES SANFORD, FLORIDA October 30, 1930. Mr. S. O. Chase, Office. Dear Syd: ISLEWORTH: The writer visited Isleworth five times since his return to the office. With the exception of two tracts all of the grapefruit has been picked over for 64s and larger. Lack of maturity has prevented any operations on the Mogul Block, which is carrying about half a crop. We have cleaned up all of the Parson Browns, Norris Earlies, 16 to 1, and other early varieties, and also find that practically all of the oranges qualify, and can be moved. Hutchinson and Crowell have instructions to push orange picking operations and keep the fruit going. Crowell states that with the exception of a little spraying the time of the force is taken up in picking up fruit. This expense is running about $50.00 a day, and exceeds the cost of picking. In the writer's opinion the dropping will be intensified with time, due to the injury to the bearing wood by Arsenical spray. By working in the grapefruit drops with the cannery stock we are able to make a little salvage to off-set the expense. We are writing Lee A. Strong today to see if there cannot be some modification of the clean-up regulations. The writer also made the acquaintance of Hoidale, who is the successor of Doctor O'Kane. He is younger, but appeared to be a very fair young chap. TANGERINES: The writer had Magnuson make a test, but the fruit failed to qualify. Magnuson will make two or more tests per week from now on, in the hope that some of the fruit will pass and permit a car to move prior to November 15. MARSH SEEDLESS GRAPEFRUIT: The writer also requested a test of this fruit, which did not pass. Yours very truly, J.C.C. JCC:HMR.

Dear Syd: ISLEWORTH GROVE COMPANY: Note with regret copy of letter of the Honorable J G. Bright under date of September 4th, rejecting the claims for batement of Isleworth Grove Company. This man Weill may fail utterly to secure us any proper adjustment. When in California, Frank Chase advised me that C. C. Teague, President of the California Fruit Growers Exchange, in connection with the Limoniere Lemon Company, failed to receive any consideration at Washington when the matter was handled by an expert. He finally took the matter out of the expert's hands, went to Washington himself, and secured an abatement on every point he made. The original claim by the Government was or over $100,000, and he finally settled the whole thing upon a payment of $1500.00. It may be that we will have to follow a similar course after Weill has exhausted all of his efforts. This means quite a serious matter as Isleworth affairs are so closely interwoven with our personal returns.

Dear Syd:- FLORIDA PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY: I am returning herewith a letter to you of this outfit, signed by T. B. Brodwater. If the line the Isleworth is to be an extension and come under the contract with the Town of Windermere, don't you think that we would be entitled to full information concerning same? If we make use of the power in the contemplated pre-cooling plant and in the operations of the packing house, and perhaps opearing the irrigating plants, we would be the largest individual users of power under this arrangement. The writer is not posted on the cost of installing the Isleworth extension of about one-half mile, but might be able to secure pointers from Mr. F. H. Owen, who has charge of such work in connection with the JAcksonville Electric plant. If there is any way of getting an outline of the proposed arrangement with the Town of Windermere and also just what the sub-arragement will be with us, the writer could take it up with Mr. Owen and see if it could not be checked out with a view of determining whether it is reasonable or unreasonable, or whether the arrangement could be improved upon to our advantage. The writer realizes that drawing power from the Florida Public Service Company would also enable us to take out spoilage insurance in event of any break-down on the part of the power when we had the storerooms filled with fruit which we were holding there for future shipment. We can look into this feature when we are in Philadelphia. There will be no time for you to answer this letter before you leave, so that we can talk it over when you are here Thursday afternoon.

CARLOT DISTRIBUTORS CITRUS FRUITS AND VEGETABLES JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA Sept 20 1919 Mr. S. O. Chase, Sanford, Florida. Dear Syd: ISLEWORTH: Note yours of the 19th reporting on your visit to Isleworth. From your report the grapefruit is not yet sufficiently colored or sufficiently matured to give satisfaction to the customer. We wish we could do something to improve the color as that is the matter that counts. Just as soon as you can give a date to start picking operations arrange to do so as we believe the bulk of the fruit now going forward consists of small sizes that have colored up and the large sizes will command a premium especially at auction. last year we disposed of the bulk of the Isleworth crop at New York auction. Very glad to have such a good report on the general appearance of the trees and the fruit. Yesterday Mr. Skinner took the joy out of life by telling me of a prediction made by a man who foretold the Key West hurricane, that we would be visited by a very severe freeze on or before December 15th. This man gave very good reasons why this disaster should overtake the present crop. We hope Isleworth escapes. Yours very truly, J.C.C.

By 1886, the Chase brothers purchased several citrus groves to expand their business, including Isleworth Grove in Windermere, Florida. Isleworth Grove covered a total of 1,300 acres along the Butler Chain of Lakes. Between 1894 and 1895, Central Florida was hit by several freezes and most of the citrus crop was destroyed. Chase & Company did not grow citrus crops again until 1904 when Joshua came back from an extended stay in California. Between 1894 and 1900, different types of pesticide equipment was created, including equipment driven by steam, machines, and horses.Randall Chase joined in the family business soon after his brother, Sydney Chase, Jr., did in 1922.

DEar Syd: This will acknowledge your pencil note of the 23rd written after you reached Sanford. You do not make any mention of the trip, and hope it proved fairly comfortable. It certainly was awfully nice to find you here upon my arrival and I certainly appreciate the trouble and discomfort you underwent in order to be on hand. Somehow we did not sees as much of each other Friday as I hoped would be the case. There were so many things that butted in that prevented talking over a number of matters in which we are both interested. It is too infernally bad that Ross at Isleworth has quit cold after he has been carried during the entire summer. Can only hope that he has rendered sufficient service in over hauling the machinery and reequipping the packing house to make the expense worth while. If he had been white he would have given you an opportunity to go into this matter personally before he laid down. Do you think you could get a wire to Lambert Ross wherever he is now, to secure a substitute? Whoever acts as superintendent should have the benefit of Ross' services in going over all of the changes and all of the improvements in the machinery and also the operation of the hot rooms so that same can be operated efficiently. If there is anything that I can do, let me know. Enclosed find letter from Harney giving some interesting information about Heitman. His health for years has been poor and he is such a tough proposition that he will probably last longer than expected. Regret to note the death of Mrs. Magnuson, but it may help to solve one of our problems and give us the services of Magnuson, who may prefer being away from his home rather than remaining without anyone to look after him. I am trying to catch onto some of the matters Is Format Of Digital reproduction of original letter from Joshua Coffin Chase to Sydney Octavius Chase, September 24, 1921.

Chase, Sanford, Florida. Dear Syd: This will acknowledge receipt of your letter of the 24th reporting your return to Sanford on Sunday evening without any mishap. I am very glad that you had no further occasion to change a tire. It certainly was hot work Saturday evening. Also note copy of letter you received from the office of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue regarding the Isleworth Grove company returns. In event Weill & Blakely are unable to adjust this matter on a proper basis, there is only one thing for us to do, and that is to take all of the necessary papers to Washington and both of us appear before the Commissioner in order to arrive at a basis of settlement. We both know that the Isleworth grove Company was formed originally as a holding company for our real estate interests. At that time we did not think it necessary to use more than a nominal amount as capital stock, as we intended to make use of the Company as a title clearing organization. As we found that a mistake had been made, we disincorporated, and if there were any mistakes made at that time, it was due to bumm advice from Landis. However, the matter has been handled, and we must now take care of any adjustments. When in California, Frank Chase appeared to think that we could do more by going directly to Washington on the final show-down than could be accomplished through experts. Yours very truly, JCC/s Is Format Of Digital reproduction of original letter from Joshua Coffin Chase to Sydney Octavius Chase, September 25, 1923.

Title Letter from Joshua Coffin Chase to Sydney Octavius Chase (January 22, 1927) Alternative Title Chase Correspondence (January 22, 1927) Subject Windermere (Fla.) Chase, Sydney Octavius, 1860-1941 Chase, Joshua Coffin, 1858-1948 Chase and Company (Sanford, Fla.) Description An original letter of correspondence between brothers and business partners Joshua Coffin Chase and Sydney Octavius Chase. Topics discussed in the letter include Mr. Parrish's statement of federal inspection in New York and Joshua's planned visit to Isleworth Grove. Chase & Company was established by brothers Sydney Octavius Chase and Joshua Coffin Chase in 1884. The company sold insurance and later invested in storage facilities and fertilizer sales. Chase & Company was known mainly for its agricultural interests and maintained a series of citrus groves throughout Central Florida. The company was based out of Sanford and became one of the city's largest employers into the early twentieth century. By 1886, the Chase brothers purchased several citrus groves to expand their business, including Isleworth Grove in Windermere, Florida. Isleworth Grove covered a total of 1,300 acres along the Butler Chain of Lakes. Between 1894 and 1895, Central Florida was hit by several freezes and most of the citrus crop was destroyed. Chase & Company did not grow citrus crops again until 1904 when Joshua came back from an extended stay in California. Between 1894 and 1900, different types of pesticide equipment was created, including equipment driven by steam, machines, and horses.Randall Chase joined in the family business soon after his brother, Sydney Chase, Jr., did in 1922. Randall became the president of Chase & Company from 1948-1965. The Isleworth property stayed in the Chase family until 1984 when Franklin Chase, the son of Sydney Chase, sold the property to famed golfer Arnold Palmer.

Chase, Henry Grady Hotel, Atlanta, Georgia. Dear Syd: There does not appear to be anything to add to what we have already said. After my talk with you, when you advised Parrish's statement of Federal inspection in New York, we wired the New York office to find out if it was so. No one in Orlando had this advice, and Newton telegraphed down to McManus to find out what there was to it. Up to the present time we have heard nothing from anywhere. I am going out to Isleworth this afternoon to show the place to Mrs. Ferguson of Orange Park, and will probably see Browne, Hutchinson and others. Will touch Browne up about the plat that he is making of the place and tell him to show speed from now on as it is wanted. Will say nothing to him about his absence from the place. The quicker all of our men are put on notice to stay on the job or to ask permission before they go elsewhere, the better it is going to be.

Jan 31 1927 Dear Syd: ISLEWORTH: the writer has just returned from there. They are now picking tangerines across the canal and expect to finish Wednesday. During the last week the fruit has deteriorated greatly, due to hot weather, and is showing the effects of the cold. They only had twelve pickers at work in spite of the fact that the writer has been after Browne for the last two weeks to increase his picking force. Instead of getting larger it has really shrunk. During the past few days the weather has been very hot and the trees on the higher parts of the grove are beginning to show signs of wilting. There is one block of trees near where the young alligator pears are planted that should be irrigated, and the writer so advised Browne. Unfortunately, making up the plat is a good excuse for Browne attending to this job and not getting on the outside. Browne is instructed to get together some additional pickers, using some in clearing up the tangerines and others in picking fruit from some of the trees that are dropping heavily. We also want this increased force to use in picking the pineapples, which will soon begin to drop heavily. I am very much in hopes that when you reach Atlanta you will find conditions there in such shape that you can get back here some time this week. glad to report that the Valencias are holding on in good shape but there is a big waste in the grapefruit. Fred Lord, of Lord & Spencer, is now at Titusville going over McNiff's holdings and is due to reach here Tuesday night or Wednesday morning. He wanted a price on the pineapple oranges now en route to New York but we decided not to make any changes in our marketing plans. We may make him a price on the last car from the White and Kiser Groves. The White GRove picked over 1200 field boxes. Stanley is instructed to pick all other varieties except the Valencias from all the trees in that block, and then make his arrangements to pick the seedling oranges from the Goodall Grove. In this way we can keep some fruit moving from that territory during the next month or six weeks. When Lord is here on Wednesday I will take him out to Isleworth and see if I can interest him in the balance of the grapefruit. If we can make a guarantee joint account deal[?], we may do so.

Magnuson, Windermere, Fla. Dear Sir: Now that your days of testing the fruit are at an end, I will want you to assist Hutchinson in the packing house, and endeavor to raise the grade and pack to a higher standard. We want to have all the Isleworth fruit packed so it can go to auction or be sold F.O.B. My brother, J. C. Chase, will instruct you about the grade. We want to avoid throwing too much fruit into the Coat-of-Arms grade, but want the Isleworth brand to carry the fruit of the proper texture, and which is not real russet. Some of the golden tipped russets can be included in the Isleworth grade. More attention should be given to improving the bulge pack. In other words the pyramid pack should be followed, which is the nest name I know for the high pack. If small oranges are selected for the ends of the box, and large oranges for the center of the box the pack will show up the way the buyers like to get it, with a good full bugle in the center. The fruit should be more carefully wrapped, especially the top layer. Every orange should be wrapped with a good, hard twist, so that the paper will be absolutely smooth and the box as a whole will present a very neat appearance. You know from the experience you had at Neamathla just what we want. We want to improve the Isleworth pack where ever it can be improved. Yours very truly, SOC:HMR.

Crowell, Windermere, Fla. Dear Sir: This will confirm my conversation with you today with reference to the employment of Mr. Reid Rogers, who has been working in orange groves for the past four or five years in and around Thonotosassa. Mr. Rogers has been employed without any definite time being agreed upon as to the length of his employment. Personally I believe he will make a good man, and will be of great assistance to you. He has been instructed to work under your instructions, and to do whatever you want him to do, at any time and anywhere, to assist in the irrigation, spraying, fertilizing, and other work which you find him capable of doing. Unless we have rain in the net dew days we will have to plan to start irrigating , and I believe it would be well to put him in charge of the irrigating crew. He is scheduled to arrive at Isleworth Monday afternoon, or evening. Please speak to the party running the boarding house and arrange for a good, comfortable, room for him. If his services are found satisfactory it may be that some different living arrangement can be made outside of the barracks. Yours very truly, J.O.C SOC:HMR.

Transcript CHASE & CO. ORLANDO, FLORIDA April 26, 1928. Mrs. S. O. Chase, Jr., Windermere, Fla. Dear Madam:- Enclosed find a letter from Mrs. George S. Hill, Trustee, and copy of my reply. Would suggest that you take this matter up with Crowell or Mr. Fry and have them make a rough estimate of what will be needed in the way of lumber to make the changes and what it will require in the way of labor to do the work. We would be willing to contribute under the supervision of Mr. Fry, if possible, or someone else at Isleworth. These changes could be made from time to time during the summer, in order to have the building in readiness for use when school resumes. The writer did not know that the building was used not only as a school but for church purposes, and believe that those who make use of it should help out in the expense. Try to find out who is the leading darky or darkies and make them interested in these changes.

Chase, Windermere, FLorida. Dear Frank: Thank you for the fruit and alligator pears you were kind enough to leave at the house Friday afternoon. They will come in very handy to help entertain the Watsons and other "Animated Magazine" manufacturers. No doubt you remember meeting Mr. and Mrs. Watson two years ago. I am returning herewith the Isleworth census as of January 1, 1937, which is not absolutely clear to me. Your figures and mine do not agree. Would you check it over and make up a statement showing exactly the total number of men, women, and children, black and white, on the place on January 1. It would be alright to show the total number of black and white that are employed during the shipping season. I understand from your statement that all of the houses are numbered, and some of them are occupied by two families. Also note that there are two colored women, Lizzie Drayton and 2 children and Nancy Tillman and 3 children, occupying house No. 19 with no husbands. Are they employed in any capacity on the property? When you return your statement let me know whether No. 11 and No. 12 are the old barracks we built there quite a good many years ago. Who loks after the sanitary conditions around the property, and also the condition of the buildings? It occurs to me that the responsibility of keeping the property up in good shape should be cared for by the occupants. Do you think you could appoint a committee of say three whites and three blacks, appointed by Mr. Crowell, to patrol the place, see to it that the rules and regulations are observed, and report to him any matters that require attention? We don't want to have an epidemic break out that might affect the little community, including your own family. Return the census with your reply. Yours very truly, JCC:MHR Is Format Of Digital reproduction of original letter from Joshua Coffin Chase to Franklin W. Chase, February 20, 1937.

Lancaster, Gotha, Fla. Dear Sir; Mr. Watkins, father of the boy who had a fight at the grove ten days ago, was in the office this morning. He said he was in trouble and did not know just what to do. He stated that the boy was ready to be removed form the hospital, but had no place to go, and wanted to know if we had work we could give him at some other point. This we have not got. I suggested to him that he see Mr. Bogue, who is now in Orlando, and see if he could give him anything to do. In the event that he can not if you were willing, to see if the boy could not be brought to Windermere and boarded there, so that his father could work in the grove during the day. We are not sure whether this would be entirely satisfactory to you. If it is not, of course all you have to do is say so. This arrangement was only temporary, and I doubt if the boy would be able to move around much for three or four weeks, and I do not think if he was living in Windermere he would give you any trouble at first. When my father returns he can probably make some better arrangement. Have you any suggestions to make? I understood from Mr. Watkins that Mr. Morrison said that Chase & Company would be responsible for the hospital bill. Is this so? This morning I was in Orlando for a few minutes and tried to talk with you on the phone, but you were out on the grove somewhere. I left a message with Mrs. Lancaster. The man who wanted work seemed to unusually bright, and had a good face. He is just out of the army and wanted work of some kind, preferably in the fruit business. I told him we had nothing now except grove work for which we only paid about $1.50 per day. He said he would be willing to take that until the shipping season opened. I do not know whether you can use him at the grove or not, but told him I would find out, and to come back in a couple days and I would let him know. He said before he went into the army he had worked as a packing house foreman and a picking foreman. If he can do all that he says he can he is the kind of a fellow we are looking for. Yours truly, CHASE & COMPANY.

Mr. J. C. Chase, Office. Gentlemen: A. E. Carpenter 'phoned this morning that Mr. Crawford, representing the A.C.L. was in his office, and that he had a letter from Mr. McCranie with reference to the poles thru Isleworth. As I understood from Mr. Carpenter the A.C.L.'s proposition now us that they be allowed to set the poles a uniform distance of 14 1/2 feet from the center of the track, and in such a position as they would not interfere with the grove operations. We can see by this that they are trying to establish their right way of approximately 30 feet. In talking the matter over with Carpenter he and I reached the conclusions that it might be well to grant them an easement to place the poles as they have indicated, without in any way jeopardizing our rights regarding an additional right of way to the railroad. In other words, instead of granting the additional right of way it would simply be an easement, also we would grant this easement provided the railroad would allow us to put our telephone line on their poles. Will you please get in touch with Carpenter as son as you return to the office and indicate to him what your pleasure is in this matter? Your very truly, R.C. RC :HMR 2/21/31 JCC Saw Carpenter today and advised him if ACL[?] stayed [?] of track they could have 14 1/2' placement for poles after cross.

G-04516 FLORIDA OFFICES JACKSONVILLE SANFORD MIAMI SANFORD, FLORIDA Aug. 19, 1919 Mr. J. C. Chasse, Camden, Me. Dear Uncle Josh; You will by this time have received the copy of one of Mr. Lancaster's letters regarding the fight between some of the Georgia men Mr. Bona brought down. It seems that Watkins, the white fellow, is a son of the old man who has worked for Chase & Company for several seasons on the East Coast and was in Georgia during the peach deal. The son is just 13 years old, and, according to the doctors' advices will not be able to do any work for sometime, if he ever is. He was cut, badly, on both wrists, and they are afraid will not have good use of his hands. He is now in the hospital in Orlando, but is able to be moved as soon as Mr. Watkins can find a place to take him. Mr. Lancaster refuses to let either the boy or the negro come back on the place, which I think is very wise. Watkins was just in the office and wanted to know if we could help him out anyway. I suggested that he see Mr. Bogue, who knows him, and who is now in Orlando, and see if he could not do something. In the event he can not it might be possible for him to obtain board for himself and son at Windermere and work on the grove during the day. In this way he could take care of his son and have work. Mr. Lancaster I believe is perfectly willing to have Mr. Watkins on the grove, but, as stated before, will not allow the boy on the place. If you have any suggestions would be glad to have them. I have not given Mr. Watkins any money, and don't want to. Yours truly, Randall The lost case of celery seed just arrived. R.C.

Transcript CHASE & COMPANY GROWERS; MARKETING AGENTS PACKERS AND SHIPPERS FLORIDA FRUITS AND VEGETABLES SANFORD, FLORIDA February 29, 1928. Mr. J. C. Chase, Orlando, Fla. Dear Uncle Josh: I have read with considerate regret your letter of the 28th regarding releasing Smith from the Orlando jail. The whole trouble is due to the fact that we were not advised in this office that you or any one else had been advised of the situation, or had done anything about it. As you know we have always handled all labor matters and troubles thru here, and when we handled this matter of releasing Smith we were only following the usual and established custom. The information that reached me was not the same that reached you as to the need of Smith. I was informed that Smith has been put in jail for disorderly conduct, and the charge of being drunk, furthermore that on account of his not being on the grove it more or less delayed the installation of the irrigation system which you, and all of us, want to rush to completion as fast as possible. My first thought was identical to yours, to let Smith soak where he was, but on reconsidering I thought it would be to our interest to take him out and continue the work without interruption rather than flunk around with new, or strange, help, or continue at half speed in case we did not find any one else suitable. I assure you that it is not my desire, or even thought, to encourage drinking or disorderly conduct in or about Isleworth, however you know that where ever men are there is going to be a certain amount of that done anyway. DISTRIBUTORS Sunniland TRADEMARK FRUITS AND VEGETABLES GROWERS' MARKETING AGENTS PACKERS AND SHIPPERS FLORIDA FRUITS AND VEGETABLES SANFORD, FLORIDA #2 The instructions from this office concerning Smith now are that all of his pay, with the exception of what he needs for board and possibly a dollar for cigarettes, is to held back until we are entirely thru with him. We can then pay him off and he can leave the place and spend his money as he sees fit. As stated above the whole trouble was brought about by this office not being informed of what you had already done about the matter. I regret very much that what I did does not meet with your approval and I assure you that I am perfectly willing, and would be glad, to stand for the amount of bail rather than have it go thru on the Isleworth account.

Dear Syd:- ISLEWORTH PACKING. The class of work turned out under piece system is not satisfactory if we are to continue to count on auction support. Competitors with no better fruit are putting out a more attractive pack. Hutchinson does not appear to be inclined to insist on his packers putting the necessary touches on the wrap and the pack that is necessary if we are to continue to get top notch prices for our fruit. It may be necessary to pay the packers on a day basis and insist that they turn out the work done in a manner satisfactory to us, and not expect them to put out more than 30 or 35 boxes per day. With a little extra expense on grading and a little extra expense on packing, we an more than get back out of the additional money we will realize on the sale of fruit. All of the fruit that is packed should have the paper pulled tight, smooth, and with a tight twist. If you will go into the packing houses of the American Fruit Growers and some of the other shippers who cater to auction, you will find that they are turning out a more attractive looking pack than we are. You do not have to take my word for it but can ask Rinck, or anyone else who puts in some of his time in these other houses. This is a matter we should handle together, so there will be no conflict of wishes. The same applies to Wiley Avenue. Eubank is all right to get out a pack in a hurry but he is absolutely no good when it comes to fixing up a car for auction.

Hutchinson, c/o Isleworth Groves, Windermere, Florida. Dear Mr. Hutchinson, In comparing the sales of the Isleworth cars size by size with the Fellowship and the Crane, the writer finds that almost invariably the Fellowship and very often the Crane will beat Isleworth on the 216 size. It some times happens that Isleworth will be slightly ahead of both of the above brands on some of the other sizes, but when the 216 size predominates in a car if the Crane or Fellowship beat Isleworth the increased amount makes a better average for the car for the competitive brands. The writer believes that in event you are not putting up fruit Tuesday afternoon you had better arrange to visit the Fellowhip packing house in an endeavor to find out how it is that their 216s pack show up in New York market looking heavier and higher than the Isleworth 216s. We believe if we can get on to this pack whatever it is, we can beat every Orange County packing house with the Isleworth brand. The writer is sending this letter out to you by Mr. S. O. Chase, Jr., so you can make your arrangements for Tuesday. Enclosed find a comparison worked out by Mr. Patterson. Yours very truly, JCC-g Is Format Of Digital reproduction of original letter from Joshua Coffin Chase to Corbett Hutchinson, April 2, 1928.

Dear Sir: Referring to the telephone conversation this morning about packing some of the third grade oranges in plain boxes and including in cars moving to New York. The writer believes that if you can sell all of this fruit to peddlers at $1.50, or better, it would pay more, net, than taking a chance. However, he is perfectly willing to have you make the experiment, provided you exclude the large sizes, which will run coarse and punk. You will note from reports of sales you are getting that the sizes that are drawing a premium are from 200s to 324s. The writer will be away from the office Thursday, Friday and Saturday and return to his home Sunday evening. You had better call him there Monday morning. If weather conditions improve, be sure to have picked and in the packing house for Monday morning enough to put out not less than two carloads. We want these two cars to leave on Monday in order to sell in New York on Friday, the 24th. The rain will probably cause a let-up on picking operations and help clean up the market.

Mr. Corbett Hutchinson, c/o Chase & Company, Sanford, Fla. Dear Sir:- NEW YORK. When you arrive at the Pennsylvania Depot, you can engage a red cap to carry your satchel from the train into the Pennsylvania Hotel, which is directly across from the depot. Our New York office was instructed to make you a reservation of a $4.00 or $5.00 a day room. This may not be ready for you when you reach New York and you may have to wait, as the hotel is usually engaged ahead. If there is any fall-down on the reservation, hire a taxi and secure a room at one of the other nearby hotels. Our New York office is located at 66 Harrison St. The office is equipped with a telephone under the name of Chase & Company. We want you to visit the office bright and early Monday morning and go with Mr. Lum to inspect citrus fruit from both California and Florida. California fruit is displayed and sold at the Erie Pier before the Florida sale takes place. Give the grade and pack of the California fruit your careful attention and if you find any of the brands have certain features in paper, guards, or any other trimmings that make memos and secure some of the samples. This same holds good on any of the Florida packs and brands that you inspect during your stay in New York. You had better remain there until the last car of Isleworth first bloom Valencias is sold. If you have time and feel like it, go to the vegetable sales with Mr. Newbold. You will have time in between to take in some of the sights and trust you will have a good trip. Ask Mr. Lum to introduce you to Mr. R. H. Thomas. You already know Mr. Gorman of the Fruit Auction Company. WASHINGTON. Enclosed find a letter of introduction to our Manager, Mr. Wm. E. Edwards, 408 Star Building, Washington. We think you would be interested in stopping off a day just to meet him and inspect the cars of fruit in Potomac Yards, so you will know how it is done. When you return to Florida we want you to write up a report and call to our attention any pointers that you think we can use next session. Yours very truly, JCC:H Is Format Of Digital reproduction of original letter from Joshua Coffin Chase to Corbett Hutchinson, April 26, 1928.

Dear Sir: We want to avoid artificial coloring of the oranges an tangerines from now on. Whenever it is necessary, only color the fruit that absolutely requires it. The graders should cut back any and all green fruit to be colored and the balance go through under the natural color. This does not apply to grapefruit. The writer believes that some of the Isleworth grapefruit should be colored if it shows up with a greenish tinge, such as a car did last week. Yours truly, JCC:GEM J. C. Chase.

Dear Sir: Enclosed find a letter from L. M. Newbold, calling attention to a poor showing made by a car of Isleworth tangerines compared with a car of Crescent City tangerines. This is the first time the writer can ever remember of a car of Crescent City tangerines out-selling a car of Isleworth tangerines. We usually beat the very socks off them, although we have to admit that the Crescent City tangerines are of higher coloring than Isleworth. Please get right after your packers and see that they put up just the swellest kind of a pack. Yours truly, J. C. Chase. JCC:GEM Encl.

Hutchinson, c/o Isleworth Groves, Windermere, Florida. Dear Sir: WRAPPING: The writer could not help but notice that some of the packers were not wrapping the fruit the way they should, and he also thought that some of the packers were not using enough strength in putting the oranges snugly and firmly in each tier. We are selling most of our output at auction and we must have an attractive pack in order to secure the highest prices paid. We want you to keep behind the nailer-up and see to it that he brings the center strap down more snuggly over the fruit to avoid having the boxes reach destination with the appearance of being slack pack. Keep right behind your graders and see that the grade is kept right up to the mark.

Dear sir: Keep right behind your graders to see that the fruit put up under the Isleworth brand is up to the standard in every respect. Don't permit any defective oranges to go into the boxes. Please keep busy with your packers to see that the fruit is wrapped and put into the boxes as it should be. We don't want any slouchy, sloppy work from the packers. If you find that any of the, are careless and do not regard your instructions, turn them loose. Keep behind the "nailer up", and see to it that he does not let up on bringing the strap hard down over the center in order to show up the bulge to good advantage. The writer is inclined to think that he does not pull the strap down in all cases the way he should. This is very important: to have the center strap pulled down hard over the pack. Enclosed find copy of letter that goes to the Fruit Auction Company. You will note that they are requested to wire in event any of the sizes arrive showing slack pack.

Enclosed find copy of a letter to this party, with outline of just what we want him to accomplish in New York. We would like to have him on hand during the sale of the following cars which were packed and shipped while he was at Isleworth: FGE 15138, Shipmt.No. 53 WFE 60662, Shipmt.No. 55 You may also handle car WFE 60683, Shipmt. No.56, containing late bloom Valencias from Isleworth that are put up without any brand. This stock is very similar to some of the fruit from Isleworth that was packed in plain wraps. If this car is not taken by a Boston customer, it will be handled by you. If the results are satisfactory, we will arrange to ship you the balance of the crop, estimated at about two cars. Mr. Hutchinson will take this matter up with you. Trust that the final cars from Isleworth will do well.

Mr. Randall Chase, c/o Chase & Co., Sanford, Fla. Dear Randall:- Enclosed find copies of letters which are self-explanatory. You can supplement with any pointers that you think he should attend to while in New York and Washington. If he wants to stop off at Philadelphia, he is certainly at liberty to do so. You can arrange with him about his finances. If you are unable to purchase round trip ticket over the Coast Line to New York with stop-over privileges, would suggest that you buy ticket and Pullman through to New York and give him a couple of $50.00 checks, or enough to take care of his requirements for transportation, hotel bills and any other items that should be included. This expense is to be charged up to Chase Investment Company. Yours very truly, JCC:H Is Format Of Digital reproduction of original letter from Joshua Coffin Chase to Randall Chase, April 26, 1928.

Edwards (April 26, 1928) Alternative Title Chase Correspondence (April 26, 1928) Subject Windermere (Fla.) Chase, Joshua Coffin, 1858-1948 Chase and Company (Sanford, Fla.) Fruit--Packing Packing industry Fruit--Grading--United States Fruit--Inspection--United States Description An original letter of correspondence between Joshua Coffin Chase and sales agent W. E. Edwards. Topics discussed in the letter include Isleworth packinghouse superintendent Corbett Hutchinson's upcoming business trip to New York City, New York, and Washington, D.C. and Chase's request to have Edwards visit Potomac Yards for inspection. Chase & Company was established by brothers Sydney Octavius Chase and Joshua Coffin Chase in 1884. The company sold insurance and later invested in storage facilities and fertilizer sales. Chase & Company was known mainly for its agricultural interests and maintained a series of citrus groves throughout Central Florida. The company was based out of Sanford and became one of the city's largest employers into the early twentieth century. By 1886, the Chase brothers purchased several citrus groves to expand their business, including Isleworth Grove in Windermere, Florida. Isleworth Grove covered a total of 1,300 acres along the Butler Chain of Lakes. Between 1894 and 1895, Central Florida was hit by several freezes and most of the citrus crop was destroyed. Chase & Company did not grow citrus crops again until 1904 when Joshua came back from an extended stay in California. Between 1894 and 1900, different types of pesticide equipment was created, including equipment driven by steam, machines, and horses.Randall Chase joined in the family business soon after his brother, Sydney Chase, Jr., did in 1922. Randall became the president of Chase & Company from 1948-1965. The Isleworth property stayed in the Chase family until 1984 when Franklin Chase, the son of Sydney Chase, sold the property to famed golfer Arnold Palmer.

Edwards, c/o Flacal Sales Agency, 408 Star Building, Washington, D.C. Dear Mr. Edwards:- This will be handed to you by Mr. Corbett Hutchinson, Isleworth Packing house Superintendent, who is stopping off at Washington on his way back from New York. We wanted him to spend a few days in New York and be on hand while the final cars of Isleworth were being sold which were graded and packed under his supervision. We feel that this trip at this season will be of use to him in further improving the Isleworth grade and pack. We would like very much to have him meet you and if possible go with your inspector to Potomac Yards and see just how the cars of Florida fruit and vegetables are inspected by your office and just what are the good and bad points of the Florida grade and pack, so that he can endeavor to correct any of the weak points and enable you to sell more cars of Isleworth during the coming season. Mr. Hutchinson is an Ex-service man and you may be able to compare notes on your war experience. Yours very truly, JCC:H Is Format Of Digital reproduction of original letter from Joshua Coffin Chase to W. E. Edwards, April 26, 1928. Chase and Company Chase, Joshua Coffin Edwards, W. E.

Gainesville, Florida: University of Florida Press: 1960. Transcript CHASE & CO. SANFORD, FLORIDA March 20, 1931. Mr. Corbett Hutchinson, Windermere, Fla. Dear Sir: We have had very good results from the Isleworth shipments via Clyde, and we think it would be well to continue having some fruit go forward that way. We would like to have fruit leaving Isleworth to go by Clyde on Thursdays and Saturdays, so as to make the Fridays and Sunday's boats from Jacksonville. There is a Wednesdays boat, but that arrives in New York on Friday, too late for that day's sale, so that the fruit has to carry over until Monday, which is not desirable. We want, of course, to maintain our position in the New york market. In order to do that it is necessary that we have something selling every day they have a sale. On Clyde Line shipments leaving Jacksonville on Friday we can figure they will sell on Tuesday. Clyde shipments leaving Sunday we figure will sell on Thursday. The Clyde actually makes a four days schedule to New York, but arrives on the morning of the fourth day generally too late for that day's sale. We will have to arrange our shipments by rail so we will make sure and have cars there when we don't have them by Clyde Line. We figure rail shipments the fourth morning sale. Yours very truly, R.C. CC-Mr. S. O. Chase. Mr. J. C. Chase. RC:HMR. Is Format Of Digital reproduction of original letter from Randall Chase to Corbett Hutchinson, March 20, 1931.

Title War in Afghanistan Collection Alternative Title Afghanistan Collection Description Operation Enduring Freedom is the official name for the "military conflict" commonly known as the "War in Afghanistan," which is a group of military actions within the Global War on Terror (GWOT). The operation in Afghanistan is an ongoing conflict between Afghanistan, the United States, Russia, the United Kingdom, France, Canada, Poland, Germany, Italy, Spain, Australia, New Zealand, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) against two Islamic fundamentalist groups in Afghanistan: the Taliban and Al-Qaeda. The Taliban came to power in Afghanistan in 1996, the same year that international terrorist and Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden immigrated to the country with the invitation of the Northern Alliance. Following the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, the United States presented the Taliban with a five-point ultimatum to the Taliban government, which was suspected of providing asylum to Al-Qaeda terrorists. After the Taliban rejected the ultimatum and the U.S. rejected Taliban proposals to try suspected terrorists under Islamic Shari'a law, the United States and the United Kingdom initiated military action on October 7, 2001. Although the U.S.-led coalition removed the Taliban from power initially and severely damaged Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan, the operation has overall had little success in defeating the Taliban insurgency. Operation Enduring Freedom has been transformed into a full war and has thus far lasted significantly longer than expected.

Professor Joseph National Crooms, the school principal, can be seen in the center of the photograph. The Crooms Academy of Information Technology is located at 2200 West Thirteenth Street in the Goldsboro community of Sanford, Florida, and was founded by Joseph Nathaniel Crooms as the first African-American high school in Seminole County in 1926. Professor Crooms and his wife, Wealthy Crooms, donated the land on which the school was constructed. The professor served as the school's principal until his retirement in 1953. In 1970, Seminole County Public Schools desegregated and changed the school's functions numerous times. In 1973, the original school building burned down; other school buildings have deteriorated over the past couple of decades. In 2000, the United States Department of Justice allowed Seminole County to lift it's desegregation order by 2003 under several conditions, one of which was to rebuild Crooms Academy as an academy of information technology. Crooms Academy currently functions as a magnet school with Information Technology Certifications in A+, MOUS, MCP, CCNA, MCSE, and others.

Title Sanford High School Boys Basketball Team, 1926 Description Sanford High School boys basketball team during the 1925-1926 school year. During that year, the school only had an outdoor basketball court and had to cancel several games due to poor weather. Sanford only played two games in which they defeated Winter Park High School and lost to Daytona Beach High School. The team consisted of: King and Speer, forwards; Cottingham and Duffin, centers; and Block, Thompson, and Russell, guards. Sanford High School was originally established at 301 West Seventh Street in 1902. The building was designed by W. G. Talley in the Romanesque revival style. Due to an increasing student population, a new school building was constructed on Sanford Avenue in 1911. The original building on Seventh Street served as Westside Grammar Elementary School, which was later renamed Sanford Grammar School. In 1984, the building was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places and converted into the Student Museum. The building reopened as the University of Central Florida's Public History Center in 2012. In 1927, a high school campus was designed by Elton J. Moughton in the Mediterranean revival style and constructed at 1700 French Avenue. The school reopened on January 10 and was renamed Seminole High School. In 1960, the high school moved to a new campus at 2701 Ridgewood Avenue and the former building on French Avenue was converted to Sanford Junior High School, which was later renamed Sanford Middle School. The old building was demolished in the summer of 1991 and replaced by a $5.77 million school complex. As of 2013, Seminole High School offers various Advanced Placement courses, the Academy for Health Careers, and the International Baccalaureate Programme for students.

Title Co-Educational Physical Education Class at Seminole High School Description Co-educational physical education class at Seminole High School in 1959. Originally located at 301 West Seventh Street in Sanford, Florida, Seminole High School was first established as Sanford High School in 1902. The building was designed by W. G. Talley in the Romanesque revival style. Due to an increasing student population, a new school building was constructed on Sanford Avenue in 1911. The original building on Seventh Street served as Westside Grammar Elementary School, which was later renamed Sanford Grammar School. In 1984, the building was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places and converted into the Student Museum. The building reopened as the University of Central Florida's Public History Center in 2012. In 1927, a high school campus was designed by Elton J. Moughton in the Mediterranean revival style and constructed at 1700 French Avenue. The school reopened on January 10 and was renamed Seminole High School. In 1960, the high school moved to a new campus at 2701 Ridgewood Avenue and the former building on French Avenue was converted to Sanford Junior High School, which was later renamed Sanford Middle School. The old building was demolished in the summer of 1991 and replaced by a $5.77 million school complex. As of 2013, Seminole High School offers various Advanced Placement courses, the Academy for Health Careers, and the International Baccalaureate Programme for students.

Title Lyman High School Homecoming Queen Dana Hall with Escort Lonnie Friar Description Lyman High School's Class of 1963 Homecoming Queen, Dana Hall, with her escort, Lonnie Friar. Lyman is a Seminole County Public School located in Longwood, Florida. In 1923, a board of trustees agreed to construct a new school to accommodate the growing population in the Longwood and Altamonte Springs area. Construction began at 1725 County Road 427 in 1924 and opened in September 1924 with Professor Howard Douglas as its first principal. Lyman School, as it was originally called, was named after Howard Charles Lyman, a citizen who was active in planning the school's establishment, but died a few days before construction began. In just two years, Lyman became an accredited junior high school and its campus had been expanded with six rooms. With W. J. Wells as principal, the Lyman School achieved accreditation through 12th grade in 1929. In 1963, the school was renamed Lyman High School when it became an accredited institution with Carlton D. Henley as principal. In 1966, Lyman High became integrated with both white and black students. A new campus was constructed at 865 South Ronald Reagan Boulevard in 1969 and the original campus became R. T. Milwee Junior High School. Milwee was named after Rayburn T. Milwee, Sr., who taught at Lyman from 1939 to 1949, served as principal from 1949 to 1952, and finally as Superintendent of Seminole County Schools from 1952 to 1967. In 1970, Seminole County transitioned from the junior high school system to the middle school system, causing Lyman High School to now accommodate ninth grader in addition to 10th, 11th, and 12th graders. During the transition period from 1970 to 1971, the school mandated "double sessions" in which half of the school would attend from 7:00 am to 1:30 pm and the other half would attend from 11:30 am to 6:00 pm. In June of 1971, Milwee Middle school, where Lyman's original campus was, closed and reopened as a satellite campus for Lyman High School during the 1971-1972 school year. For the 1972-1973 academic year, all Lyman students returned to the primary campus and the satellite campus was used for Lake Brantley High School instead. In 2000, Lyman established the Institute for Engineering, a magnet program emphasizing mathematics and science.

Title Seminole High School SALLY Staff, 1942 Description Seminole High School SALLY (Salmagundi) yearbook staff for the 1941-1942 school year. Originally located at 301 West Seventh Street in Sanford, Florida, Seminole High School was first established as Sanford High School in 1902. The building was designed by W. G. Talley in the Romanesque revival style. Due to an increasing student population, a new school building was constructed on Sanford Avenue in 1911. The original building on Seventh Street served as Westside Grammar Elementary School, which was later renamed Sanford Grammar School. In 1984, the building was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places and converted into the Student Museum. The building reopened as the University of Central Florida's Public History Center in 2012. In 1927, a high school campus was designed by Elton J. Moughton in the Mediterranean revival style and constructed at 1700 French Avenue. The school reopened on January 10 and was renamed Seminole High School. In 1960, the high school moved to a new campus at 2701 Ridgewood Avenue and the former building on French Avenue was converted to Sanford Junior High School, which was later renamed Sanford Middle School. The old building was demolished in the summer of 1991 and replaced by a $5.77 million school complex. As of 2013, Seminole High School offers various Advanced Placement courses, the Academy for Health Careers, and the International Baccalaureate Programme for students.

Title Lyman High School Cadet Kyle Monroe Description Lyman High School cadet, Kyle Monroe, accepted a trophy for his school's Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps (JROTC) Color Guard at the Army State Drill Meet held at George W. Jenkins High School, located at 6000 Lakeland Highlands Road in Lakeland, Florida, in 1998. Jenkins High School is a Polk County Public School founded in 1993 to relieve overcrowding at Lakeland High School and Bartow High School. The school is named after George Washington Jenkins, Jr., the founder of Public Super Markets, Inc. Lyman High School is a Seminole County Public School located in Longwood, Florida. In 1923, a board of trustees agreed to construct a new school to accommodate the growing population in the Longwood and Altamonte Springs area. Construction began at 1725 County Road 427 in 1924 and opened in September 1924 with Professor Howard Douglas as its first principal. Lyman School, as it was originally called, was named after Howard Charles Lyman, a citizen who was active in planning the school's establishment, but died a few days before construction began. In just two years, Lyman became an accredited junior high school and its campus had been expanded with six rooms. With W. J. Wells as principal, the Lyman School achieved accreditation through 12th grade in 1929. In 1963, the school was renamed Lyman High School when it became an accredited institution with Carlton D. Henley as principal. In 1966, Lyman High became integrated with both white and black students. A new campus was constructed at 865 South Ronald Reagan Boulevard in 1969 and the original campus became R. T. Milwee Junior High School. Milwee was named after Rayburn T. Milwee, Sr., who taught at Lyman from 1939 to 1949, served as principal from 1949 to 1952, and finally as Superintendent of Seminole County Schools from 1952 to 1967. In 1970, Seminole County transitioned from the junior high school system to the middle school system, causing Lyman High School to now accommodate ninth grader in addition to 10th, 11th, and 12th graders. During the transition period from 1970 to 1971, the school mandated "double sessions" in which half of the school would attend from 7:00 am to 1:30 pm and the other half would attend from 11:30 am to 6:00 pm. In June of 1971, Milwee Middle school, where Lyman's original campus was, closed and reopened as a satellite campus for Lyman High School during the 1971-1972 school year. For the 1972-1973 academic year, all Lyman students returned to the primary campus and the satellite campus was used for Lake Brantley High School instead. In 2000, Lyman established the Institute for Engineering, a magnet program emphasizing mathematics and science. Date Created 1998 Coverage Lyman High School, Longwood, Florida George W.

Title So Proudly We Hail...Our Alumni Description Seminole High School yearbook dedication to the school's alumni that were serving in the United States military during World War II. The spread shows photographs of the following alumni servicemen: Ashby Jones, Mike Saus, J.W.

Originally located at 301 West Seventh Street in Sanford, Florida, Seminole High School was first established as Sanford High School in 1902. The building was designed by W. G. Talley in the Romanesque revival style. Due to an increasing student population, a new school building was constructed on Sanford Avenue in 1911. The original building on Seventh Street served as Westside Grammar Elementary School, which was later renamed Sanford Grammar School. In 1984, the building was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places and converted into the Student Museum. The building reopened as the University of Central Florida's Public History Center in 2012. In 1927, a high school campus was designed by Elton J. Moughton in the Mediterranean revival style and constructed at 1700 French Avenue. The school reopened on January 10 and was renamed Seminole High School. In 1960, the high school moved to a new campus at 2701 Ridgewood Avenue and the former building on French Avenue was converted to Sanford Junior High School, which was later renamed Sanford Middle School. The old building was demolished in the summer of 1991 and replaced by a $5.77 million school complex. As of 2013, Seminole High School offers various Advanced Placement courses, the Academy for Health Careers, and the International Baccalaureate Programme for students.

Title Oviedo High School Powderpuff Cheerleaders Description Oviedo High School powderpuff cheerleaders during the 1985-1986 school year. The male cheerleading squad consisted of Shawn Hartsfield, Bill McLoughlin, Chris Cammack, Pat Westerfield, Brent Bradley, Cliff McCloe, Mike Willette, Eric Flynn, Darrell Cunningham, and Erik Vick. Oviedo High School is a Seminole County Public School located in Oviedo, Florida. Originally called the Oviedo School, the institution was first established in 1922 as a K-12 school. In 1948, the secondary grades separated from the elementary school. The upper grade levels formed Oviedo High School and moved to the campus at 601 King Street. Oviedo High School is notable for The Lion's Tale, the award-winning school newspaper recognized by various national and state scholastic press associations; its high ratings from the Governor's A+ Plan for Education; and its successful athletics programs. The term "powderpuff" is used describe the participation of females in traditionally male sports, such as football, and the participation of males in traditionally female sports, such as cheerleading. Powderpuff football games are a tradition for many American high schools and universities. The first powderpuff football game was held on October 20, 1945, at Eastern State Teachers College in Madison, South Dakota. The idea for a female football team arose out of the lack of male football players due to the military draft during World War II. Powderpuff became popularized in 1972 when two high schools in Connecticut, Mark T. Sheehan High School and Lyman Hall High School, held a game between their female students.

Originally located at 301 West Seventh Street in Sanford, Florida, Seminole High School was first established as Sanford High School in 1902. The building was designed by W. G. Talley in the Romanesque revival style. Due to an increasing student population, a new school building was constructed on Sanford Avenue in 1911. The original building on Seventh Street served as Westside Grammar Elementary School, which was later renamed Sanford Grammar School. In 1984, the building was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places and converted into the Student Museum. The building reopened as the University of Central Florida's Public History Center in 2012. In 1927, a high school campus was designed by Elton J. Moughton in the Mediterranean revival style and constructed at 1700 French Avenue. The school reopened on January 10 and was renamed Seminole High School. In 1960, the high school moved to a new campus at 2701 Ridgewood Avenue and the former building on French Avenue was converted to Sanford Junior High School, which was later renamed Sanford Middle School. The old building was demolished in the summer of 1991 and replaced by a $5.77 million school complex. As of 2013, Seminole High School offers various Advanced Placement courses, the Academy for Health Careers, and the International Baccalaureate Programme for students.

Title Lyman High School TEC Club Description Lyman High School student at the chalkboard during a TEC Club meeting during the 1965-1966 school year. Lyman High School is a Seminole County Public School located in Longwood, Florida. In 1923, a board of trustees agreed to construct a new school to accommodate the growing population in the Longwood and Altamonte Springs area. Construction began at 1725 County Road 427 in 1924 and opened in September 1924 with Professor Howard Douglas as its first principal. Lyman School, as it was originally called, was named after Howard Charles Lyman, a citizen who was active in planning the school's establishment, but died a few days before construction began. In just two years, Lyman became an accredited junior high school and its campus had been expanded with six rooms. With W. J. Wells as principal, the Lyman School achieved accreditation through 12th grade in 1929. In 1963, the school was renamed Lyman High School when it became an accredited institution with Carlton D. Henley as principal. In 1966, Lyman High became integrated with both white and black students. A new campus was constructed at 865 South Ronald Reagan Boulevard in 1969 and the original campus became R. T. Milwee Junior High School. Milwee was named after Rayburn T. Milwee, Sr., who taught at Lyman from 1939 to 1949, served as principal from 1949 to 1952, and finally as Superintendent of Seminole County Schools from 1952 to 1967. In 1970, Seminole County transitioned from the junior high school system to the middle school system, causing Lyman High School to now accommodate ninth grader in addition to 10th, 11th, and 12th graders. During the transition period from 1970 to 1971, the school mandated "double sessions" in which half of the school would attend from 7:00 am to 1:30 pm and the other half would attend from 11:30 am to 6:00 pm. In June of 1971, Milwee Middle school, where Lyman's original campus was, closed and reopened as a satellite campus for Lyman High School during the 1971-1972 school year. For the 1972-1973 academic year, all Lyman students returned to the primary campus and the satellite campus was used for Lake Brantley High School instead. In 2000, Lyman established the Institute for Engineering, a magnet program emphasizing mathematics and science.

After graduating from Lyman, Simpson began working in a parachute factory in Casselberry, Florida. Shortly afterward, she joined Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service (WAVES), completing a training course in parachute rigging at Lakehurst Naval Air Station in Jackson, New Jersey. Although the photograph is dated as 1941, it was likely taken sometime after 1942, as WAVES did not exist in that year. WAVES, officially named the U.S. Naval Reserve (Women's Reserve), was established on July 30, 1942, as a division in the United States Navy for women. WAVES was officially part of the Navy and its members held thee same rank and ratings as their male counterparts, received the same pay, and were subject to the same standards for military discipline. Initially, WAVES members were stationed only in the continental U.S. and were barred from serving aboard combat ships or aircraft. Towards the end of World War II, members of WAVES were allowed to serve in a number of U.S. occupied locations, such as Hawaii. Most members of WAVES performed clerical work, but a number served in aviation, medicine, communications, intelligence, storekeeping, science, and technology. On June 12, 1948, women were granted permanent status in the Armed Forces via the Women's Armed Services Integration Act. The V9 WAVE Officer Candidate Volunteer Program and V10 WAVE Enlisted Rating Volunteer Program were discontinued and renamed the W9 Women's Officer Training Program and W10 Women's Enlisted Training Program, respecitvely, because women were no longer volunteers as the WAVES acronym implied. Nonetheless, the acronym for WAVES was still used through the 1970s.

Lyman High School is a Seminole County Public School located in Longwood, Florida. In 1923, a board of trustees agreed to construct a new school to accommodate the growing population in the Longwood and Altamonte Springs area. Construction began at 1725 County Road 427 in 1924 and opened in September 1924 with Professor Howard Douglas as its first principal. Lyman School, as it was originally called, was named after Howard Charles Lyman, a citizen who was active in planning the school's establishment, but died a few days before construction began. In just two years, Lyman became an accredited junior high school and its campus had been expanded with six rooms. With W. J. Wells as principal, the Lyman School achieved accreditation through 12th grade in 1929. In 1963, the school was renamed Lyman High School when it became an accredited institution with Carlton D. Henley as principal. In 1966, Lyman High became integrated with both white and black students. A new campus was constructed at 865 South Ronald Reagan Boulevard in 1969 and the original campus became R. T. Milwee Junior High School. Milwee was named after Rayburn T. Milwee, Sr., who taught at Lyman from 1939 to 1949, served as principal from 1949 to 1952, and finally as Superintendent of Seminole County Schools from 1952 to 1967. In 1970, Seminole County transitioned from the junior high school system to the middle school system, causing Lyman High School to now accommodate ninth grader in addition to 10th, 11th, and 12th graders. During the transition period from 1970 to 1971, the school mandated "double sessions" in which half of the school would attend from 7:00 am to 1:30 pm and the other half would attend from 11:30 am to 6:00 pm. In June of 1971, Milwee Middle school, where Lyman's original campus was, closed and reopened as a satellite campus for Lyman High School during the 1971-1972 school year. For the 1972-1973 academic year, all Lyman students returned to the primary campus and the satellite campus was used for Lake Brantley High School instead. In 2000, Lyman established the Institute for Engineering, a magnet program emphasizing mathematics and science.

Sanford (Fla.) Winter Springs (Fla.) Memorials--Florida Description Central Florida is a unique place. Diversity exists throughout the spectrum of population, neighborhoods, tourism, and attractions. Because of our uniqueness and seemingly never-ending list of things to do, we tend to overlook the things that make us unique. We tend to overlook our past. We walk through parks, down the street, and around lakes, catch a glimpse of a commemorative plaque or statue, but it stops there. Central Florida is rich of monuments and memorials, yet very rarely do we know why it is there and who put it there. Our small University of Central Florida Public History class selected a number of memorials and monuments around Central Florida. We found busts, markers, structures, and statues that stand tall. Some of these are obvious, but others are hidden amongst the brush. We had no idea what we would find in regards to these gems; some of us found very little, but others found gold. We found that monuments in places like Kissimmee, Lake Eola, and Sanford offer a glimpse into our past that has been overlooked, and in some cases untouched. Through the history of our monuments and memorials, we have been able to gauge social sentiment, populations, but more importantly, the reasons why our predecessors have commemorated what they have. Our sampling in no way represents all of the history Central Florida has to offer, but we can offer you a glimpse and hope that you dig further through the history our region has to offer. Come into our exhibit and look through our shared past and see what was important, and what has been forgotten. Come in and see for yourself a familiar statue to which you can finally give meaning. Come in and see Central Florida in a new light— a light that will take you through the years and the changes of our region.

Title Red Chinese Ting at Lake Eola Description Erected in Downtown Orlando’s Lake Eola Park in 1988, the red Chinese pagoda-like structure is called a "ting" due to its single story. It was constructed out of wood, ceramic, brick, and mortar. Dr. Nelson Ying bestowed the ting to the City of Orlando and Mayor Bill Frederick in 1987. Ying, director of The China Group Incorporated, chose to dedicate the pavilion to beautify Downtown Orlando and offer a place for international exchange for the mayor and dignitaries. Two years before the ting was gifted in 1985, Ying worked closely with Mayor Bill Frederick to secure a sister-city relationship with the City of Guilin by accompanying Frederick on a three-week goodwill trip to China. Guilin’s downtown landscape consists of four lakes, and downtown is easily recognizable by several pagodas that adorn these lakes. Ying intended to honor the young sister-city relationship with Guilin by placing his donation on the edge of Lake Eola in an effort to mirror the sister-city’s landscape. The ting was built in China by the Shanghai Construction Arts and Crafts Corporation, disassembled for shipping to the United States, and then rebuilt in Orlando. The ting is located in the northeast corner of Orlando’s Lake Eola.

Some of these are obvious, but others are hidden amongst the brush. We had no idea what we would find in regards to these gems; some of us found very little, but others found gold. We found that monuments in places like Kissimmee, Lake Eola, and Sanford offer a glimpse into our past that has been overlooked, and in some cases untouched.

Title Orange County World War I Soldiers Memorial Description On November 11, 1924, Armistice Day, the Orlando Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) dedicated a granite marker to the soldiers from Orange County, Florida, who died in World War I. The idea was conceived by the then-regent of DAR in 1920, but for unknown reasons, and much to the dismay of the DAR chapter, it took four years to construct. The marker consists of a bronze tablet attached to a large granite block and was originally erected at Memorial High School in Orlando, Florida. In the dedication address, Francis Gregory, chapter regent, proclaimed that the granite marker symbolized the solid character of the United States of America, and the bronze plaque commemorated those who made the marker possible: the DAR and the citizens of Orange County. After Memorial High School was demolished in 1961, the Orange County World War I Soldiers Memorial was moved to South Lake Eola where it still stands today.

Title Bataan-Corregidor Memorial at Lakefront Park Description The Bataan-Corregidor Memorial, located on the corner of East Monument Avenue and Lakeshore Boulevard in Lakefront Park, is the result of the combined efforts of the Filipino-American community and the City of Kissimmee. It began in the late 1980s when resident and a former Filipino diplomat, Menandro M. de Mesa, recognized the lack of recognition received for those who fought and perished during the fall of Bataan and Corregidor and the subsequent Death March in World War II. At an annual conference, de Mesa befriended City Commissioner Richard Herring, who also shared the same sentiments towards the victims and veterans of the events. Together, the two founded the nonprofit Bataan-Corregidor Memorial Foundation. In 1991, using his influence as City Commissioner, Richard Herring was able to persuade the City of Kissimmee to donate a piece of land in Lakefront Park for a future Bataan-Corregidor memorial. Groundbreaking for the memorial took place in 1994, and in 1995, the memorial was unveiled. The memorial features several benches, a stone dedication, an American flag, a Filipino flag, and the centerpiece: a statue depicting an American G.I. and a Filipino soldier being offered water by a Filipino woman during the Death March. Since its dedication, the memorial has become the site of annual meetings of WWII veterans who survived the infamous Death March. It has also come to be the site of annual gatherings of Filipinos and Americans celebrating Filipino-American Friendship Day on April 9th. The Battle of Bataan lasted from January 7 to April 9, 1942, and marked the most vital phase of the Empire of Japan's invasion of the Philippines during World War II. The United States defended the Commonwealth of the Philippines, but ultimately the battle resulted in the largest surrender in both American and Filipino military history. The forced transfer of 60,000-80,000 Filipino and American prisoners of war (POWs), known as the Bataan Death March, began on April 9. The POWs were subjected to physical abuse and murder. An estimated 2,500 to 10,000 POWs died before reaching Camp O'Donnell. After Bataan fell, organized opposition against Imperial Japan in the Philippines became decimated. The Battle of Corregidor was waged on May 5 and 6 and resulted in another American-Filipino defeat. This event marked the fall of both the Philippines and Asia to Imperial Japan. American and Filipino forces were able to recapture the island in 1945 and the Bataan Death March was declared a war crime following the end of World War II.

The adjoining fortified island of Corregidor at the entrance to Manila Bay became the headquarters of all American and Filipino forces. Outgunned, they took on the Japanese on Bataan for 99 days, living on less than half-rations. With food, medicine, ammunition and any hope of being rescued gone, over 76,000 exhausted men - most of them Filipinos - surrendered to the Japanese on April 9, 1942. Corregidor, with its 11,000 defenders, fell on May 6, 1942. The prolonged defense of Bataan and Corregidor upset Japan's timetable and saved Australia. Then came the tragic Bataan Death March - the tortuous 65-mile trek to the prison camps with no food, water or rest. According to the International War Crimes Commission, 10,300 people - including women and children - died of disease, starvation, sadistic beatings and outright execution during the march. Many of those who survived the camps were shipped to Japan, Korea and Manchuria, an sold as slave labor to factories and mining companies. Of the 36,000 Americans who defended Bataan and Corregidor, only about 7,000 were left at war's end. They received their campaign ribbons when they returned to the Philippines in September 1945, before heading to the United States. TRAIL'S END. The survivors who straggled through the gates of Camp O'Donnell did not know how many of their fellow soldiers had failed to make it. THE ASSEMBLY POINT. American and Filipino soldiers streamed into Balanga by foot and by truck. As they gathered for what was to become a death march they were crowded into open fields under the hot sun. Route of the Death March THIS MONUMENT IS DEDICATED TO THE AMERICANS AND FILIPINOS WHO SERVED IN DEFENSE OF DEMOCRACY IN THE PHILIPPINES DURING WORLD WAR II ESPECIALLY IN BATAAN AND CORREGIDOR, AND ON THE INFAMOUS DEATH MARCH.

Sanford (Fla.) Winter Springs (Fla.) Memorials--Florida Description Central Florida is a unique place. Diversity exists throughout the spectrum of population, neighborhoods, tourism, and attractions. Because of our uniqueness and seemingly never-ending list of things to do, we tend to overlook the things that make us unique. We tend to overlook our past. We walk through parks, down the street, and around lakes, catch a glimpse of a commemorative plaque or statue, but it stops there. Central Florida is rich of monuments and memorials, yet very rarely do we know why it is there and who put it there. Our small University of Central Florida Public History class selected a number of memorials and monuments around Central Florida. We found busts, markers, structures, and statues that stand tall. Some of these are obvious, but others are hidden amongst the brush. We had no idea what we would find in regards to these gems; some of us found very little, but others found gold. We found that monuments in places like Kissimmee, Lake Eola, and Sanford offer a glimpse into our past that has been overlooked, and in some cases untouched. Through the history of our monuments and memorials, we have been able to gauge social sentiment, populations, but more importantly, the reasons why our predecessors have commemorated what they have. Our sampling in no way represents all of the history Central Florida has to offer, but we can offer you a glimpse and hope that you dig further through the history our region has to offer. Come into our exhibit and look through our shared past and see what was important, and what has been forgotten. Come in and see for yourself a familiar statue to which you can finally give meaning. Come in and see Central Florida in a new light— a light that will take you through the years and the changes of our region.

This life-sized, 150-pound bronze bust is set on a polished stone plinth and was erected in March 1996. The monument was donated to the City of Orlando by Rafael Antonio Caldera Rodríguez, the president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela from 1969 to 1974 and again from 1994 to 1999. The monument honors Simón José Antonio de la Santísima Trinidad Bolívar y Palacios Ponte y Blanco, the founder of Bolivia and the liberator of Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, and Peru. The Bust of Simón Bolívar was the first in a series of sculptures of international heroes that lines International Plaza and Bridge. Bolívar, considered one of the most influential politicians in the history of the Americas, was a major player in Latin America's struggle for independence from the Spanish Empire during the early 19th century. Bolívar was also fundamental in the foundation of Gran Colombia, the first union of independent Hispanic nations, and led as its president from 1819 to 1830.

Title Battle of the Bulge Memorial at Lake Eola Description The Battle of the Bulge Memorial in Lake Eola Park in Downtown Orlando, Florida. This six-foot, bronze statue of an American G.I. sits on a bronze-outlined, white star set into a 34-foot diameter concrete base. The statue was sculpted by Chris Scala, a local artist from Orlando, and dedicated on December 16, 1999, the 55th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge. American, Belgian, and Luxembourger flags fly in a semi-circle behind the statue. Scala also duplicated the monument for a memorial in Clervaux, Luxembourg. The Battle of the Bulge was a major offensive campaign launched by German forces between December 16, 1944, and January 25, 1945. The battle was waged in the Ardennes region of France, Luxembourg, and Belgium's Wallonia region and involved armies from the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Belgium, France, and the Luxembourgish resistance. The German attack was unexpected, causing the Allies, especially the United States, to lose a significant number of casualties. The goal of the offensive was to separate the British and American Allied forces in half, capture the Belgian city of Antwerp, and then surround the four Allied armies. While the Germans had the benefit of surprise and initially poor weather conditions that grounded the Allies' air forces, the Allied Forces were ultimately able to win the battle thanks to defensible terrain and improved weather conditions that allowed the use of air attacks. The battle is also known as Unternehmen Wacht am Rhein ("Operation Watch on the Rhine") to the Germans, Bataille des Ardennes ("Battle of the Ardennes") to the French, and the Ardennes Counteroffensive to the Allies as a whole. The Battle of the Bulge was the largest and bloodiest battle fought by the United States in World War II.
