Description
The new Downtown Orlando Post Office building, located at 51 East Jefferson Street, in 1958. The original post office was housed in the Federal Building, located 44 East Central Boulevard in Downtown Orlando, Florida, from 1917 to 1941. In 1935, when James Beggs, Jr. became the postmaster, he began petitioning to move the post office from its Central Boulevard and Court Avenue location to a more spacious building. In 1939, St. James Catholic Church sold a plot of land on Jefferson Street for the new building. The building was designed by Louis A. Simon in the Northern Italian Palazzo Revival-style, and was constructed by J. P. Cullen and Sons. The new building opened in 1941 and housed the post office, the courthouse, and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) offices. The building was named an Orlando Historic Landmark in 1989. However, it was eventually sold back to the St. James Church. In 2003, the building was renovated and came under joint ownership by both the church and the federal government. Today, the building retains its post office services but also includes offices for the Catholic Diocese.

<p><em>ORANGE COUNTY REGIONAL</em></p>
<p><em>HISTORY CENTER</em></p>
<p><em>Smart. Surprising. Fun.</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>I am Kevin Stapleton, and I will be your host for this episode titled, “Jim Crow Signs.”</p>
<p><em>Episode 42</em></p>
<p><em>Jim Crow Signs</em></p>
<p><em>WHITE</em></p>
<p><em>ONLY</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton</strong> <br />As Central Florida grew in the late 19<sup>th</sup> century, urban centers like Orlando and Sanford, as well as smaller communities in the region, became racially segregated. Segregation was initially and tacitly supported by most white residents, and soon became the official policy supported by the state government, cities, and local communities in Florida and the rest of the South. In this episode, we will examine the artifacts of racial segregation in Orlando.</p>
<p><em>WHITE ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><em>CIVIL RIGHTS</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Signs denoting separate places for white and black residents had its origins in the late 19<sup>th</sup> century, as a way to remind African Americans of their second-class status.</p>
<p><em>COLORED ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>The same governments and legislatures—that only decades later granted citizenship and equal rights to blacks after slavery and the [American] Civil War—now gave sanction to the strict separation of the races.</p>

<p><em>WITH MALICE</em></p>

<p><em>WITH CHARITY</em></p>
<p><em>FOR ALL.</em></p>
<p><em>“Equal Rights</em></p>
<p><em>Before the Law.</em></p>
<p><em>The “Jim Crow” Street Car</em></p>
<p><em>THE WAY IT WORKS IN </em>[illegible]</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>These signs were colloquially known as “Jim Crow Signs,” which transmitted their social and cultural meaning as spaces or places of inferior status and accommodation.</p>
<p>Dr. Stephen Caldwell Wright was born in Sanford, Florida, and came of age during the height of the Civil Rights Movement. He tells us what Jim Crow meant.</p>
<p><em>COLORED</em></p>
<p><strong>Wright<br /></strong>Uh, Jim Crow was a system of segregation, essentially. Um, separate, uh, economic, political, social systems within a community and throughout the nation, and, uh, it simply meant, um, supposedly, “separate but equal” after a while, but somehow the “equal” got lost [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Racial segregation came from a series of laws passed at the state and local level at the end of the 19<sup>th</sup> century. This cumulated with the 1896 U.S. Supreme Court decision <em>Plessy v. Ferguson</em>—that established that separate but equal facilities—was constitutional. Dr. Scot French, from the University of Central Florida, tells us about the philosophy behind these segregation laws.</p>
<p><em>COLORED</em></p>
<p><em>MEN</em></p>
<p><em>Orange County Courthouse 1950s Restroom Sign</em></p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>These signs are really a product of a system of racial control that replaced slavery. In the aftermath of, uh, Reconstruction, there was a lot of conflict, obviously, in the streets and in public places…</p>
<p><em>COLORED ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>And, uh, the politics of space became very personalized, and of course, this—this problem gets multiplied in the age of railroads when, uh, strangers are confronting one another in passenger cars, and there’s a real effort to control this population of free people, and to remind them of their place in society, and that place in the eyes of the powers that be, the—the white redeemers of the southern, uh, government and politics—their place was, uh, underneath the white man, that this was a white man’s country. After the <em>Plessy</em> decision, the Supreme Court decision which—well, made the—the—the principle of “separate but equal,” uh, the law of the land, there was en effort to begin to codify all of these practices in law to…</p>
<p><em>COLORED ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>Designate certain spaces as for colored and certain spaces as for white…</p>
<p><em>WHITE ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><em>CIVIL RIGHTS</em></p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>and the idea behind this was that it would keep black people and white people from brushing up against each other in ways that would lead to—to conflict.</p>
<p><em>“Equal Rights</em></p>
<p><em>Before the Law.</em></p>
<p><em>The “Jim Crow” Street Car</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>The word “Jim Crow” originally came from African-American activists in the middle of the 19<sup>th</sup> century. African Americans used the term to describe the ways in which they were treated differently from whites in public accommodations and services. From then on, the name stuck.</p>
<p><em>JIM CROW.</em></p>
<p>[illegible]</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Jim Crow was a blackface character, performed by white stage actors, during that time which portrayed blacks without human dignity or humanity through racist stereotypes. For African Americans, the system of racial segregation was part of that same dehumanizing legacy.</p>

<p><em>INTAKE OFFICE</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Even though according to the law and court decisions, separate was to be equal, it never was. “Separate” was only a way to reinforce difference. Dr. Wright tells us how he experienced segregation growing up in Central Florida.</p>
<p><strong>Wright<br /></strong>Usually, there was a black section, um, if I remember correctly, uh, usually a smaller area, and usually more crowded than the larger so-called “white section,” and the black sections, uh—what were then called the “colored sections,” were not nearly as well-kept, and—and—and—and the like. That would be true in terms of the bathrooms, as well. For instance, I remember…</p>
<p><em>COLORED</em></p>
<p><strong>Wright<br /></strong>Um, in many instances, um, men and women shared the same bathroom, while in the other section, you’d have women and then men, uh, facilities.</p>
<p>Uh, taking the bus was, um, notable, because it was understood that when you got on the bus you went to the back, and that was understood. There were no signs. The signs were the faces. The driver would, you know—knew that you were going to go to the back, and would give you a funny look if you sat too close up front, and that kind of thing. Not all of them, but some of them would.</p>
<p>If you went downtown, and you were standing at the counter, then you knew that everybody else was going to be waited on, served before you. So you could be standing there, but if a person who was white walked up, then they would reach around you and just continually serve all of them, until they had gone. Then, they would serve you.</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Although racial segregation translated to second-class citizenship for African Americans, it did not mean that residents of Central Florida stood idly by.</p>
<p><em>7UP</em></p>
<p><em>BOO-BOO’S BAR</em></p>
<p><em>TOWN& COUNTRY</em></p>
<p><em>Stone’s[?]</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>African Americans founded their own businesses, churches, civic associations, and even towns. Local communities usually had a segregated downtown district, where African American businesses and residents lived. In Sanford, there was Georgetown; in Winter Park, there was Hannibal Square; and Parramore, on the west side of Downtown Orlando.</p>
<p>African Americans even established entire incorporated towns, which elected black officials, such as Goldsboro, west of Sanford, and Eatonville, north of Orlando. Goldsboro eventually was absorbed into the City of Sanford in 1911, but Eatonville is one of the few black municipalities founded during this period that still exists. Dr. Julian [C.] Chambliss, from Rollins College, tells us about these black business districts that emerged out of racially segregated cities.</p>

<p><em>293-7320 • ORLANDO</em></p>
<p><strong>Chambliss<br /></strong>Well, segregation’s sort of unplanned, perhaps on some level, uh, benefit for an African-American community is to coalesce, uh, the [inaudible] community within the boundaries established by white society. As a result, what you see is a whole infrastructure created around servicing the black community—servicing—so black professionals, doctors, lawyers, teachers, um, black businesses that are serving black residents. All those are situated around the core of the black community. So if you look at a place like, for instance, Hannibal Square in Winter Park, Florida…</p>

<p><em>HOTEL</em></p>
<p>[illegible]</p>
<p><strong>Chambliss<br /></strong>You have everything that African Americans could possibly need within the confines of their segregated community, and this, of course, bolsters the economic standing of those, uh, business owners and those professionals. They are, in fact, servicing a captured audience, but that doesn’t mean that they’re not doing good service to the community.</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>By the 1950s, many public places did not admit blacks at all, and separate entrances and facilities were common in courthouses and other public buildings for access by African Americans.</p>
<p>Another Supreme Court decision in 1954, <em>Brown v. the Board of Education</em> [<em>of Topeka</em>], finally overturned the <em>Plessy</em> decision, and the Federal Government finally declared that “separate” was not only unequal, but also unconstitutional.</p>

<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Although by the 1950s, many Americans were recognizing that racial segregation was wrong, it was a long process for state and local communities to dismantle Jim Crow’s segregation. Dr. French explains.</p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>It was really not any secret. Everybody knew this. In many ways…</p>
<p><em>COLORED ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>The—that the—these signs were a part of a fiction of “separate but equal,” but for African Americans, of course, it was never equal. And, in fact, this was the basis for the great challenges to, uh…</p>
<p><em>WHITE ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><em>CIVIL RIGHTS</em></p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>Segregated society. the great legal challenges was the “equal” was not equal under this system, and, uh, you began to see in the 20<sup>th</sup> century a chipping away at this edifice of—of Jim Crow law…</p>
<p><em>Segregation</em></p>
<p><em>IS</em></p>
<p><em>UnAmerican</em>[sic]</p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>Based on the fact that the facilities provided to African Americans were profoundly unequal or absent altogether. After <em>Brown v. Board of Education</em>, many civil rights advocates—activists white and black—decided to test the law, to—to take the idea that public spaces should be open, uh, as there were increasingly being made open. The courts began to open up public spaces, particularly in places like interstate travel, and so the waiting rooms at bus stations or railroad stations became desegregated, technically. However, in practice, states and localities continued to enforce segregation. They left those signs on the walls, and they continued to insist that persons of color sit in different waiting rooms—in waiting rooms designated for them.</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>In Central Florida, racially segregated schools were the norm until the 1960s, when Durrance Elementary was integrated under pressure from the Federal Government. And soon, other Orange County schools agreed to desegregate.</p>
<p>[illegible]</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Because of demonstrations by civil rights activists, community leaders, and students, local officials closed some public facilities, rather than allow them to be racially integrated. This public activism and protest against Jim Crow segregation…</p>

<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Was similar to events throughout the state and the rest of the South. It was through this activism, and because of the passing…</p>
<p><em>THE</em></p>
<p><em>Civil Rights</em></p>
<p><em>Act of 1964</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Of the 1964 Civil Rights Act by the U.S. Congress that outlawed these forms of racial segregation and relegated the Jim Crow signs to the dust bin of history.</p>
<p>Although the system of Jim Crow disappeared, its absence, while welcomed by all segments of society, left a vacuum in the once-thriving black downtowns, as Dr. Chambliss explains.</p>
<p><em>CAMPUS</em></p>
<p><em>THEATER</em></p>
<p><strong>Chambliss<br /></strong>In order to make sure African Americans had full sorta status as—as Americans, um, they had to break down the segregation system. As a consequence, the restrictions in terms of movement, and space, and regulations associated with zoning housing, uh, gave way, and with that, African Americans had the choice of where they wanted to live and how they wanted to live. This had a direct negative impact—impact on the strong cohesion that was created by that outward force constraining African Americans into their, uh, communities. So you see a spread—a spreading out, but you also, I think, see a kind of breaking down. The strong cohesion created by the outside force threatening the black community goes away. African Americans are able—‘cause, especially middle-class and upper-class African Americans, are able to move to places that are better, and this leaves the working-class African Americans…</p>
<p><em>7UP</em></p>

<p><em>TOWN& COUNTRY</em></p>
<p><em>Stone’s[?]</em></p>
<p><strong>Chambliss<br /></strong>Um, in that former space, but without the sort of economic and social connections that they had during segregation.</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>As Dr. Chambliss mentioned, the legacy of Jim Crow is bittersweet. It is a legacy that residents of these communities confront today. Dr. Wright recalls for us his struggle with this legacy, and the conversation he had with his mentor and friend, the late Gwendolyn [Elizabeth] Brooks, the famous African-American poet.</p>
<p><strong>Wright<br /></strong>It’s interesting that, um, when I think of, um, integration, uh, and the whole business of…</p>

Um, members of the black community are—are now affiliated with, uh, non-black institutions, and—and that’s the way it is. Reminds me of what Gwendolyn Brooks said to me when I said to her one day, “All of the black principals have moved out of the community,” and she said, “Oh.” Looked at me and she said, “I’m glad you stayed. I’m glad you stayed. They need to see you.”</p>
<p>[illegible]</p>

County Reviews SR 46A Plans
Before committing any money to a State Road 46A-Interstate 4 interchange feasibility study, Seminole County will investigate and review studies and plans for the proposed project.
In a work session Monday, the county commission assigned the planning staff to review the county comprehensive land use plan and the Orlando urban area transportation survey for future plans for the interchange and surrounding areas.
A State Department Transportation official, meeting with the county and local officials, said the department's long-range plans call for an interchange at the site by 1990.
Local developer Dan Rathel, a development consultant for Paulucci Enterprises for Duluth, Minn., last week requested the commission participate in funding a $6,000 feasibility study on the project.
Rathel is part owner of a 200-acre undeveloped industrial park at the intersection. He told the board the developers would donate a portion of the land needed for a right-of-way on the project.
W.T. Fish, a state transportation engineer, said he didn't have any estimate on what the interchange could cost.
Altamonte Springs Mayor Norman Floyd, also attending the work session, said priorities should be given to up-grading interchanges at the State Road 436 and 434 before building an interchange at SR 46A.

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.

Mayor Bill Frederick and Dr. Nelson Ying at Construction of Red Chinese Ting
Description
City of Orlando Mayor Bill Frederick and Dr. Nelson Ying placing the top piece of the Red Chinese Ting in Downtown Orlando's Lake Eola Park. Erected 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. Ying bestowed the ting to the City of Orlando and Mayor Frederick in 1987. Ying, director of The China Group Incorporated, chose to dedicate the pavilion to beautify downtown 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, then disassembled for shipping to the United States, then finally rebuilt in Orlando. The ting is located in the northeast corner of Orlando’s Lake Eola.

Description
Chase & Company was established by Joshua Chase and his brother Sydney 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, Florida, 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. 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.

SANFORD, FLORIDA
August 10, 1927.
Mr. J. C. Chase,
Camden, Maine.
Dear Josh:
I am enclosing copy of letter I received from Mr. Newton, with reference to some documents which he received from J. Curtis Robinson with reference to the Prune growers clearing house in California. Robinson turned these papers over to Newton, as suggested in my previous letter.
I have been unable to see Newton or Skelly. Pratt is due back about the 15th, and Newton is scheduled to leave on the 15th. Newton is scheduled to speak before a joint citrus growers and farmers meeting in Gainesville on the 12th. I believe Mayo is to be with him, and they will talk strong on the Clearing House proposition.
The letter which you drafted in response to Commander's letter, was written and sent out last week. I have not seen copy of the letter, or direct advices that it has actually gone to Commander but I think it has. I understand that a copy of the letter was sent to you.
Matters are more or less in a hectic condition in Sanford at the present time. Lake has resigned as Commissioner and Mayor. His place will be filled by special election on the 25th. Inasmuch as my plans for an outing have been interfered with, and still further interfered with by unexpected happenings, I have decided to leave tomorrow for Asheville and return here on the 25th, so address me at Asheville on receipt of this letter if you have not received contrary advices.
Mr. J. C. Chase. #2.
Weather continues warm and dry.
I am getting my dope together for an interview with L. L. Payne, Chairman of the County Commissioners, on my return from Asheville and prior to the next meeting of the County Commissioners. I am not going to make a written report until I can have a personal interview and relay the data I am getting together. Whatever changes he thinks should be made in reports submitting the proposition to the Commissioners I can make and endeavor to put in proper shape so as not to handicap them in doing what they want to do for us.
I am satisfied we will have to bear some of the expenses of this road proposition by reducing values of trees, and also possibly the cost of a portion of the fence. I want to use creosoted posts, as they should last twenty to thirty years. They cost fully double what a light-wood post would cost. I would prefer to absorb some of this additional cost rather than not have a good permanent fence; further more we may run our fence line outside of the right of way of the deed, with the understanding that we will set our fence back allowing full width of the right of way any time within ten years that the county requires it. My thought in this is that possibly some of our best bearing trees could be allowed to stand where they are, and within ten years we would get more out of the crop than we would by taking the value of the trees at the present time. If they force us to put the fence back before ten years they have to pay the full value. In other words we have to get some sort of a Cracker trading basis. They have prepared a deed, and have a map showing the proposed road. They have arranged matters so we can gather this year's crop from the trees which have to be moved, which will help the situation.
There are practically 238 trees tagged, which will have to be removed if the fence line is run on the highway right of way. I have sent Sydney down to Isleworth today to
Mr. J. C. Chase. #3.
make a check of the trees tagged, and to make a report to me on the number of trees, their variety, size, and condition (whether in good condition or scrubs which really have no value).
Your very truly,
S.O.C

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."

Description
<p>An original letter of correspondence between Sydney Octavious Chase and Cary D. Landis, Esq. Topics discussed in the letter include a Ku Klux Klan demonstration in Sanford, rumors that the H. R. Stevens campaign was mobilizing African-American voters, and a satchel found in front of the Chase & Company office the evening of the demonstration.<br /><br />Chase & Company was established in 1884 by brothers Sydney Octavius Chase and Joshua Coffin Chase. 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. 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.<br /><br />The Ku Klux Klan was first organized by ex-Confederate soldiers in in Tennessee in 1866, but was disbanded by the first Imperial Wizard Nathan Bedford Forest in 1869 in order to avoid government sanctions. The second Klan was reformed in 1915 by William J. Simmons. Although the KKK deteriorated nationally during the Great Depression, it still flourished in Florida until a $685,000 lien was filed against the national Klan in 1944 for back taxes from the 1920s. In 1948, Dr. Samuel Green of Atlanta revived the KKK in Georgia, which spread to Florida and other states. In 1951, the Florida KKK responded violently to the activities of Harry Tyson Moore's Progressive Voters' League and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) during a period dubbed "The Florida Terror." As of the early 2000s, the Florida KKK remained to be on of the more active Klans in the country.</p>

Ku Klux Klan 120 Parades Sanford Street By Night
SANFORD, Dec. 5.-(Special.)- Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, in white robes and carrying torch-lights, paraded silently and impressively through the main business section of Sanford tonight.
Some of the marchers carried signs of warning against wrong-doers.
There were 120 klansmen in the parade, which was witnessed by several thousand persons.
Dec. 6, 1921.
Esq.,
Sanford, Fla.
[?]
Last evening Sanford was visited by a bunch of KuKlux performers from Volusia County. Some of our local men no doubt were mixed in with them. The reason I state they were from Volusia Co. was I found a package that belonged to one of the High Mucky-Mucks that dropped from an automobile in front of my office, and I found it there and carried it in the house. It contained a bunch of KuKlux secrets, and belonged to a man named barber, who came from Bunnell.
It has been rather difficult for me to figure out why they should have a demonstration on the eve of our city election. There is a good deal of talk by the Lake supporters of the Stevens party attempting to vote a large bunch of negroes. This was all a mistake, s there has been no negro registration, as far as the writer knows in the last two years; in other words, all negro registrations were made prior to the present form of government, and when simon-pure[?] Democrats were scrapping for the city job they all solicited negro votes.
Some of the banners that this bunch carried last night bore the fellowing; "We believe in White Supremacy"; "Beware; judges and jury do your duty," and similar mottoes. I thought possibly the demonstration was for Mr. DeCottes' benefit, although I may be mistaken.
The satchel that was fround in front of our office was left in the office last evening, and after the writer had retired, some time around midnight, the phone rang, and I learned the party from Bunnell wanted his grip. He had discovered that he had lost it, and having seen some of the men who were in the office at the time, he was able to trace me up. At first I had a one hundred per cent Ku Klux Klan sensation, of being watched on, but found some friends in waiting for me at the door, and ernt down to the office and restored the lost property to the owner.
I do not recall Barber's initials. Do you know any Barber in that region?
Yours truly,
SOC c

RICHES Podcast Documentaries are short form narrative documentaries that explore Central Florida history and are locally produced. These podcasts can involve the participation or cooperation of local area partners. <br /><br />Episode 12 focuses on the Lawton House, a tiny cracker house built in the 1890s and moved to 190 West Broadway Street in 1902, in the middle of Downtown Oviedo, Florida.

Description
Episode 6 of RICHES Podcast Documentaries: Space, the Cocoa Beach Frontier. RICHES Podcast Documentaries are short form narrative documentaries that explore Central Florida history and are locally produced. These podcasts can involve the participation or cooperation of local area partners. <br /><br />Episode 6 examines the history of the U.S. Space Program in Florida and how the program affected Cocoa Beach. This podcast includes an interview with Lori C. Walters, a professor of history at the University of Central Florida. In the late 1950s, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) began constructing launch pads and towers on Florida's east coast as the "Missile Firing Laboratory." On July 1, 1962, NASA activated the Launch Operations Center, which was renamed the John F. Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in 1963. KSC has been the United States' launch site for every human space flight since 1968. In 2011, the Space Shuttle program ended, which resulted in the KSC workforce downsizing significantly.
Abstract
In this podcast, Dr. Lori Walters from the University of Central Florida history department discusses interesting tidbits about the city of Cocoa Beach and the ways in which it was affected by the missile and space races from the 1950s onward.

Description
Lake Eola Park in Downtown Orlando, Florida, 2001. Lake Eola and its surrounding park is one of the unusual features that sets Orlando apart from other cities. In the middle of the lake rests the Linton E. Allen Memorial Fountain, Orlando's unofficial symbol. The fountain was installed in 1912, costing $10,000. In 1957, a replacement originally called the Centennial Fountain was installed, costing $350,000. <br /><br />From its earliest days, Downtown Orlando was situated on the west side of the lake. As the town grew into a city, Lake Eola continued to be a focal point for the inhabitants, who used the lake for bathing, swimming and fishing, and its shores picnicking, listening to concerts, and participating in religious services. Much of the land around Lake Eola was donated to Orlando by Jacob Summerlin who designated that it be a public park. It has remained one ever since. The rest of the park land was donated by the Musselwhite Family and Mayor Frank Sperry.

LAKE EOLA PARK
Lake Eola Park is the most historic and widely recognized symbol of the City of Orlando. It was established in 1883 as the City's first public park after Orlando homesteaders Jacob and Fanny Summerlin donated the lake and some of the surrounding land to the City. Though formally titled Summerlin Park under terms of the original gift, the Park is most commonly known by its informal name, Lake Eola Park.
Eola's open space was enlarged in 1907 with a gift of land from S. Waters and Georgia L. Howe. In 1914, the Park's present boundaries were established with property donations from J. P. and Theresa Musselwhite, St. Luke's Cathedral, E. F. and Mary W. Sperry, C. F. and Jenny E. Grannis, and May W. and Frederick A. Strong. A final parcel was donated in 1956 by Orlando Lodge No. 1079 Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks.
The landmark fountain, situated in the middle of Lake Eola, was built by the Orlando Utilities Commission in 1957 at the urging of the Orlando Chamber of Commerce. Dedicated as Centennial Fountain, in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the City's first settlement, it was renamed the Linton E. Allen Memorial Fountain in 1965 to honor one of Orlando's most prominent business and civic leaders.
Other important reminders of Orlando's history are located within the Park, including a monument in memory of Orlando Reeves, the City's namesake, located near the site where he died in 1835.
One hundred and five years after the Summerlins' gift, Lake Eola Park was redesigned and redeveloped. With its historic elements restored, the Park was rededicated to the people of Orlando by Mayor Bill Frederick on June 30, 1988.

Description
Sperry Fountain at Lake Eola Park Downtown Orlando, Florida, in 2001. The fountain was named in honor of Frank Ezra Sperry (1843-1916), Mayor of Orlando from 1914 to 1916. Born in Bethany, Connecticut, Sperry was a graduate of the Fort Edward Institute, a farmer, a grocer, and founder of Sperry Manufacturing Company. In 1885, he and his wife, Mary W. Pratt Sperry (1848-1932), migrated to Orlando and founded the South Florida Foundry and Machine Works, grew citrus, and served as a member of the Park Commission. In 1913, Sperry donated land to be added to Lake Eola Park, as well as $2,000 to erect a fountain. He passed away suddenly that same year while serving as mayor.

Sanford (Fla.)
Chase and Company (Sanford, Fla.)
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."

Sanford (Fla.)
Description
The burning of canceled bonds from Mayor Forrest Lake's (1869-1939) on January 5, 1932. Before this scandal surfaced, Lake was considered an accomplished politician, who was elected eleven times, and helped create Seminole County. However, the pace of Mayor Forrest’s run turned sour when an article in the <em>The Sanford Herald</em> wrote an article with false facts about Lake’s use of city funds. According to the article, Lake sold "previously unsellable city bonds at a price of more than 95 percent of their face value; in reality, it was less than 90 percent. Lake was indicted following the investigation. It was proven that Lake sold the bonds for less, which caused the city to lose money, and he used illegal loans for personal use. This caused the city of Sanford to fall into $1,000,000 in debt, an increase in property tax, salary cuts, and cuts to public city services, such as the police department. After being sentenced for sixteen years, the City of Sanford protested Lake’s actions by burning over $1.5 million worth of cancelled bonds. Ex-Mayor Forrest Lake’s reputation has been tarnished, and today in Sanford, is considered to be “Sanford’s forgotten mayor.”

Description
The present-day Sanford area was originally inhabited by the Mayaca/Joroco natives by the time Europeans arrived. The tribe was decimated by war and disease by 1760 and was replaced by the Seminole Indians. In 1821, the United States acquired Florida from Spain and Americans began to settled in the state.
Camp Monroe was established in the mid-1830s to defend the area against Seminoles during the Seminole Wars. In 1836, the United States Army built a road (present-day Mellonville Avenue) to a location called "Camp Monroe," during the Second Seminole War. Following an attack on February 8, 1837, the camp was renamed "Fort Mellon," in honor of the battle's only American casualty, Captain Charles Mellon.
The town of Mellonville was founded nearby in 1842 by Daniel Stewart. When Florida became a state three years later, Mellonville became the county seat for Orange County, which was originally a portion of Mosquito County. Citrus was the first cash crop in the area and the first fruit packing plant was constructed in 1869.
In 1870, a lawyer from Connecticut by the name of Henry Shelton Sanford (1832-1891) purchased 12,548 acres of open land west of Mellonville. His vision was to make this new land a major port city, both railway and by water. Sitting on Lake Monroe, and the head of the St. Johns River, the City of Sanford earned the nickname of “The Gate City of South Florida.” Sanford became not only a transportation hub, but a leading citrus industry in Florida, and eventually globally.
The Great Fire of 1887 devastated the city, which also suffered from a statewide epidemic of yellow fever the following year. The citrus industry flourished until the Great Freezes of 1894 and 1895, causing planters to begin growing celery in 1896 as an alternative. Celery replaced citrus as the city's cash crop and Sanford was nicknamed "Celery City." In 1913, Sanford became the county seat of Seminole County, once part of Orange County. Agriculture dominated the region until Walt Disney World opened in October of 1971, effectively shifting the Central Florida economy towards tourism and residential development.

Description
Newspaper article about and portrait of businessman and politician, Forrest Lake around 1910. Forrest Lake first arrived in Sanford, Florida in the 1880s. Lake was known as a local politician and later a member of state government. One of his most well known successes in politics was the passing of the bill that created Seminole County in 1913. Throughout the early- to mid-1920s, Lake owned an icehouse, founded Seminole County Bank, and established the Hotel Forrest Lake. By the end of the Florida real estate boom, Lake suffered many financial loses when the hotel went bankrupt and he was accused of bank fraud. In 1928, Lake went through a series of trials related to the bank fraud scandal and was later sent to state prison for fourteen years. Lake only served six years and lived the rest of his life in Sanford. He died in 1939.

Originally named after the Sanford Mayor and president of Seminole County Bank, the Forrest Lake Hotel has also been known as the Mayfair Inn and was briefly occupied by the Sanford Naval Academy. In 1916, construction of the building began. Local architect Elton J. Moughton designed the hotel. In 1925, Hotel Forrest Lake opened and became a popular destination for tourists visiting Sanford.
By 1929, the hotel closed after the stock market crash and the downfall of Florida's tourism and real estate boom. William E. Kirchhoff leased the building in 1934 and the hotel reopened in 1935 with the new name Mayfair Hotel. Under Kirchhoff's ownership, the Mayfair Hotel became known as one of the finest hotels in the South.
Kirchhoff sold the hotel in 1948 to Horace Stoneham, owner of the New York Giants. Stoneham then sold the building to the Bernard McFadden Foundation, who later sold it to the New Tribes Mission. The New Tribes Mission's goal is to reach tribes who have no access to the Gospel through translated publications and missionary work.

Description
Portrait of businessman and politician, Forrest Lake. He first arrived in Sanford in the 1880s. Lake was known as a local politician and later a member of state government. One of his most well known successes in politics was the passing of the bill that created Seminole County in 1913. Throughout the early- to mid-1920s, Lake owned an icehouse, founded Seminole County Bank, and established the Hotel Forrest Lake. By the end of the Florida real estate boom, Lake suffered many financial loses when the hotel went bankrupt and he was accused of bank fraud. In 1928, Lake went through a series of trials related to the bank fraud scandal and was later sent to state prison for fourteen years. Lake only served six years and lived the rest of his life in Sanford. He died in 1939.
