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 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.

Title Sanford House Hotel Park Alternative Title Sanford House Hotel Park Subject Sanford, Henry Shelton, 1823-1891 Docks--United States Waterways--Florida Parks--Florida Sanford (Fla.) Hotels--Florida Description The Sanford House Hotel Park, adjoining the Sanford House Hotel, overlooked the waterfront of Lake Monroe at Commercial Street and Palmetto Avenue in Sanford, Florida in 1934. The hotel was built by Henry Sanford (1823-1891) with the intent of attracting tourists and providing housing for would-be wealthy settlers to the city of Sanford. The Sanford House Hotel was joined by the Lake Monroe House, a lower-cost alternative geared towards laborers, both of which were completed in 1876. Facing the waterfront, the hotel was located at the intersection of Commercial Street and Palmetto Avenue. The Sanford House Hotel featured three stories – two of which included porches – and enough rooms to serve 150 guests. The hotel’s landscaping included flower beds and citrus trees. A boardwalk led visitors straight from the hotel to the shores of Lake Monroe. Rates for a room in 1884 ranged from $15 to $20 per week. The 1887 fire came very close to the Sanford House, and it was feared that sparks would add it to the destruction. What saved it were wet blankets which were draped from the roof and windows. The Sanford House Hotel was torn down in May of 1920. At the turn of the century, the Sanford House Hotel was the center of all major city events and celebrations. While guide books from the period often included positive reference to the hotel, it failed to attract many visitors. The hotel did not make any profit during its first years of operation. By its third year, the 1879-1880 season, the hotel netted only $800 in profits. The hotel continued to make meager profits for the remainder of the nineteenth century. Nonetheless, it served as a central point of focus during city celebrations during the period. Abstract Seal on back of photograph, "A. Wiebolt, May 31, 1934, Sanford, Fla."

The photograph was likely taken before the building burned down in November of 1923. Gertrude Dupuy Sanford, the wife of General Henry S. Sanford (1823-1891), established the Holy Cross Episcopal Church in 1873. The church was consecrated on April 20, 1873, and became the first Episcopal mission in Central Florida. The original Holy Cross was designed by famed architect Richard Upjohn in the Carpenter Gothic architectural style. During the summer of 1880, the original Holy Cross was destroyed by a hurricane. Following the destruction of the original Holy Cross, Henry and Gertrude Sanford raised money for the construction of a second church. The second Holy Cross Church was completed in 1880, but was destroyed by a fire in 1923. The third church built on the site following the destruction of the second was designed by Elton Moughton, a local architect, and completed in 1924. The third Holy Cross church was built in the “pre-depression” Spanish Mediterranean style.

Chase and Company (Sanford, Fla.) Citrus fruit industry--Florida Agriculture--Florida Description 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.

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.

Description Vegetables being crated for shipment by rail during the first quarter of the twentieth century. Each boxcar was refrigerated by blocks of ice provided by local ice houses in Sanford. With the introduction of ice houses and refrigeration, farmers were able to harvest their crops more efficiently and to take in more profits from the better preserved fruits and vegetables. Farmers in relied on local ice houses to better preserve their crops before and during transport to markets. Box cars were also refrigerated to ensure that produce crops remained fresh until they were sold. Many farmers in Sanford, Florida grew celery during the early-1900s and utilized the local ice houses to store their produce. It was recommended that celery kept in ice refrigeration be stored at 32-34 degrees Fahrenheit.

Title Sanford Collection 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.

Prior to starting an ice manufacturing business in Sanford, owner Duval W. Hunter, Sr., operated an ice house in North Carolina which supplied ice for in-home use. In 1952, the Hunter moved his ice manufacturing business to Sanford because of the higher demand to cool and preserve agricultural goods. At the time that this photograph was taken in June 2011, the building was vacant. Prior to ice manufacturing, states along the east coast of the United States relied on harvested ice from frozen lakes and ponds shipped from New England. Many southern states during the 1860s began relying on ice manufacturing once the shipment of harvested ice from the northern states ceased. During the late-1800s, individual ice factories were comprised of a machine room, boiler room, ice store, loading platforms, and other office space. Large cans were used to mold the ice. When ice was needed, workers would operate a crane system to carry the ice block into a warm water bath where the ice could be removed from the reusable can manufacturing states along the east coast of the United States relied on harvested ice from frozen lakes and ponds shipped from New England.

While giving a status report during Monday's City Commission meeting, City Manager Sherman Yehl and Building Official Dan Florian informed commissioners that the building and its plumbing and electrical systems are now in compliance with city building codes as deter¬mined by a final inspection that took place last week. Bringing the building into compliance ends the city's efforts to condemn the historic building built in 1952. When the building fell into a state of disrepair, and little was done to stave off its deterioration, some in the community and on the commission argued that the building had become an "eye¬sore" and condemnation proceedings were started. McFarland and his attorneys then argued that he should be given the opportunity to bring the building up to code so he could sell the property with the building intact, thus increasing its resale value in the owner's opinion. According to the county tax appraiser's office, Web site, the building and property had a taxable value of $182,000 when last appraised — although McFarland believes its value to be much higher. As he left City Hall Monday night, accompanied by his wife, Sherry, a relieved McFarland said, "I’m glad it's over. This is my 401K and I need it to retire.” Tuesday morning McFarland said, "It was a tough fight, but we saved the ice house," pointing out that he spent a good chunk of his own money to bring the building back into compliance. McFarland said he planned to meet with a real estate agent later in the day to begin the process of putting the property up for sale. The icehouse building is zoned GC-2 (General Commercial). Dan Florian stated Monday night that before any use of the building is allowed, additional site and building improvements may be necessary depending on what uses are proposed.

Ice industry--United States Buildings--Florida Description Rand Yard Ice House, located on Rand Yard Road in Sanford, Florida in 2003. The ice plant was built in 1926 by the Mountain Ice Company of Chicago, had a 700 ton storage capacity, operated 24 hours a day, ranked second in the U.S. for ice production, and was once Seminole County's largest building for somet time. During the late-1800s, individual ice factories were comprised of a machine room, boiler room, ice store, loading platforms, and other office space. Large cans were used to mold the ice. When ice was needed, workers would operate a crane system to carry the ice block into a warm water bath where the ice could be removed from the reusable can. Although working at an ice plant was known as dangerous and hard work, employees enjoyed a steady well paid job. By 1928, the Rand Yard Ice House employed 73 African-American workers.

The average refrigerated car could carry about 400 crates of celery. Sometimes farmers, with smaller shipments, would work out a deal to share a boxcar. These were non-mechanical refrigerated cars, cooled by insulated bunkers in each end, which were loaded through a roof hatch with several tons of block ice. In 1926, the Mountain Ice Company of Chicago built a huge ice plant in the Rand railroad yard near the town of Lake Monroe. This big facility, with its 700 ton storage capacity, kept up with demands for ice by operating 24 hours around the clock. It ranked second in the Nation for ice production, and in volume size, was Seminole County's largest building. Likewise, the Rand railyards, were among the busiest switch yards in the Southeast. On the eastside, farmers were serviced by a branch ice house on Beardall Avenue, which at one time was operated by Charlie Carlson Sr. In 1926, F. F. Dutton, using methods for precooling citrus, developed a way to precool celery for shipment. Dutton operated large packing houses on Sipes and French avenues. In June 1928, the Dutton Packing House on Sipes Avenue, burned to the ground in a huge fire. In spite of a forty-percent drop in farm prices, Carl Carlson's best celery years were between 1921 and 1924, when he was getting between two and six bucks per crate. He now owned a 1921 Model T touring car and a 1923 Model T flatbed truck. But all plowing was still done by mules and horses, which also pulled the 50 gallon spray wagon for applying insecticides to the fields. Carl put more faith in his work animals than he did motorized vehicles. A farmer once remarked about Carl, "That Swede would feed his animals before he would feed himself " [Above] The big ice plant, operated by the Mountain Ice Co., supplied trains with ice.

Public Utility Enterprise Supplying the City and Local Residents Electricity, Gas, Water and Ice Three institutions that enter directly into the smooth workings of almost every business house as well as a majority of the homes of Sanford, are the Sanford Light and Fuel Co., Sanford Ice and Water Co., and the Crystal Ice Co., the parent company of which is The Southern Utilities Company, who maintain headquarters at Jackson-ville and plant throughout the State. The history or these enterprises take us back more than a quarter century. The Sanford Light and Fuel Co. was organized about 26 years ago; the Sanford Ice and Water Co., which was originally organized as the Sanford Water Works Co., was established in 1887[?] and the Crystal Ice Co., came into being about 8 years ago, In 1911[?] the Southern Utilities Co., assumed control of all three, although they are still conducted under the same name as they had been prior to that time. Under the present ownership many desirable improvements have been made, both in physical equipment and service. Big improvements have recently been made in the water works system, new electrical equipments have been added to electric light and power plant and about four months ago they installed one of the very latest types of steam engines, with a four hundred horse power. Electric Plant The electric light and power plant is situated out on First street about one and a half miles from the business section. The plant is perfectly modern in construction and equipment and has five generating units with an aggregate capacity of about 50 kw. The system of the company covers every part of the city. Gas Plant The Gas Plant is located near the water works. It has a capacity of about 100,000 cubit feet every 24 hours. Owing to the reasonable price at which gas service is furnished, it is used extensively for cooking and other purposes. Ice Department The company owns two Ice Plants, although only one is in operation—the Crystal Ice Factory. This plant is located near the electric light plant. It has a capacity of seventy-five tons daily and one of the main sources of revenue in this department of the company’s business is that of icing and re-icing cars of citrus fruit and vegetables. The plant is situated on a private track from the A. C. L. Ry., which has sufficient length to accomodate several cars at one time. Ice is delivered to local residents and shipped to the adjoining towns and villages. The product of the company is a pure artificial ice as it is possible to produce, their service is unexcelled anywhere and prices are such that any families can afford ice, summer or winter. Water Works The source of Sanford's water supply is a system of deep wells. The supply is unlimited and it has been shown by analysis that it is pure, wholesome and healthful. They maintain a reservoir with a capacity of 120,000 gallons also a 80,000 gallon tank which is mounted on a steel tower.

Owners of the building say they have taken steps to secure the building but said it is up to the parents of the children to keep them off the property. "It's just one of those things that little kids like to play around," said Judy Riggs, a neighbor who lives behind the ice house. "Someone's going to get hurt sooner or later,” she said. "When I hang clothes in the back yard, I sometimes see 10 or 12 boys playing around there." Riggs said she told Sanford police about the hazard, but nothing was done. Walter E. Schuette, a Fern Park businessman who owns the building, said it is presently being leased to Thomas Ice Co. Wilson Dezell, a spokesman for Thomas Ice Co., said he has tried turning the ice machines around so children won't climb inside them and has tried locking the door, but the building is still accessible to determined children. "Everybody goes there to catch tadpoles," said Joseph Webb, who used to play inside the building. Webb said children often sneak inside the building to grab chunks of ice. Albert Payne, a Sanford building inspector, who recently inspected the building, said he sees no danger to children playing in the old building. Payne said children were not supposed to be on the property because they were trespassing, and that it was the parents' responsibility to keep their children away from the building.

Title Ice Houses of Sanford Collection Description This collection features the various ice houses and ice plants that have existed in Sanford, Florida. Ice manufacturing became a prominent industry in the United States by the beginning of the twentieth century. Most ice houses consisted of two stories with the first floor used as food storage and the second floor used to store the ice. Ice houses provided blocks of ice for home ice boxes and allowed agricultural businesses to transport their fruits and vegetables in refrigerated vehicles.

Ice industry--United States Buildings--Florida Utilities Description The former building of the Southern Utilities Company, located at 112 South Park Avenue in Sanford, Florida, in 2011. When the building first opened in 1924, it operated as an ice house. Ice houses provided blocks of ice for home ice boxes and allowed agricultural businesses to transport their fruits and vegetables in refrigerated boxcars. Ice houses also provided cold storage for produce, meat, and other food goods for better food preservation. The most recent business that took over the building is a bar known as the Wet Spot.

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."

Title Dock in Sanford Alternative Title Dock in Sanford Subject Waterfront Districts Lakes & ponds Lake Monroe (Seminole County and Volusia County, Fla.) Steamboat Lines Steamboats--Florida--St. Johns River--History Water transportation Sanford (Fla.) Description A dock in Sanford, Florida in 1934. Sanford's location on the shore of Lake Monroe played a significant role in the growth of the city as a commercial hub. Lake Monroe is a part of the St. Johns River which served as a commercial highway through central Florida before the railroads were built. Steamships carrying essential goods would travel up and down the St. Johns River and dock at piers in small towns along the way. Henry Sanford purchased the land for the city in 1870 and from the start he saw the potential for the site to become an important transportation location, saying that the new city would be the Gate City of South Florida. Throughout the 1870's and early 1880's commercial steamboats played a significant role in the development of Sanford. Henry Sanford encouraged investment in the growing town and formed a land company based in London to bring in new investors. Also during 1880 construction started on the South Florida Railroad. The line was to have a stop in Sanford and would help to continue to develop the city as a commercial center. The town grew prosperous from this business which led to the establishment of several wharves, a railroad station and a hotel. With the introduction of the railroad steamships became less important to the commercial business in Sanford, but the city was already established as a center for distribution. In 1913 Sanford was named the county seat to the newly formed Seminole County.

Ecotourism--Florida Bald cypress Cypresses Description The giant bald cypress tree known as The Senator during the first quarter of the 20th century. As early as the late 1800s, this centuries-old tree was considered a tourist destination, but it wasn't until 1927 that a park was established around the tree. Senator Moses O. Overstreet donated six acres of land , which included the tree, to Seminole County to establish a park with the stipulation that a road would be built to take visitors into the park. The generosity of Senator Overstreet inspired residents to name the giant cypress tree "The Senator." Located at 761 General Hutchinson Parkway in present-day Longwood, Florida, the new park was named the Big Tree Park in honor of the main attraction. In 1929, President Calvin Coolidge dedicated a bronze plaque at the site of the tree. The plaque was stolen in 1945. Based on a core sample taken by the American Forestry Association, The Senator was estimated to be 3500 years old in 1946. The Big Tree Park also features another giant cypress estimated to be 2000 years old. In 2005, local elementary students names the tree Lady Liberty. It was considered to be the companion tree to The Senator, as they were only 40 feet apart. The Senator continued to be a tourist attraction and local landmark until January 16, 2012, when it was lost in a fire. Abstract 2800 Years Old or So: To calculate the age of a cypress present many difficulties. Nature of habitat, health of tree and accidents caused by the elements, all influence the rate of growth and so the number of annual rings. In our studies of logs and plugs taken from the outer ten inches of both hollow and solid trees we found as low as fifteen years (15 growth rings) per inch, to as high as seventy years (70 growth rings) per inch. In general the rate of diameter growth of cypress, as compared with that of other trees, decreases with age. But there are sometimes also alternating periods of slow and rapid growth. It must be evident then that we cannot arrive at an average growth rate and apply it with prevision. It is difficult to determine accurately the age of an individual whose stubby, crippled top and hollow trunk on the one hand, record catastrophes, but whose immense diameter on the other, might suggest centuries and even millenia. Whether you want to parallel its birth with the Battle of Maraton (490 BC) or with the Glorious day of Egypt (1500-1300 BC) depends on your own conservatish or enthusiasm. Our estimate is 2,800 years. It may only be 2,200; then again it may even be 3,500! What are a few centuries more or less in the life of a cypress?

Golf--Florida Country clubs--Florida Description The Sanford Country Club and Golf Course was originally purchased as a portion of a 20,000-acre tract by General Joseph Finegan for $40. In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) purchased the tract and sold some of it in 1878 to Charles Amory. In 1922, the City of Sanford bought 152-acres to design and construct a municipal 18-hole golf course. The course opened in October of 1922 with only four holes available for playing. The remainder of the golf course was opened in September of 1924. From 1927 to 1939, the golf course and country club experienced once of its most successful periods, with visits from some of golf's greatest athletes, such as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen. The club, for a time, saw a state of disrepair and depression. For a short time, the club became the Seminole County Club after renovation in 1945. Then, in the late 1940s, the New York Giants acquired the Mayfair Inn property for Spring Training, which allowed them to take control of the golf course. This led to the most prosperous period of the golf course and country club becoming a part of the PGA tour between 1955 to 1957, seeing players like Arnold Palmer tee-off on the course. Now called the Mayfair Country Club, the club and golf course is located at 3536 Country Club Road in Sanford, Florida.

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."

Title Burning $1,572,650 Worth of Cancelled Bonds Alternative Title Burning Cancelled Bonds Subject Politicians--Florida Bonds--Florida Embezzlement 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 The Sanford Herald 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.” Creator Chase & Company Source Original 8.5 x 11 inch black and white photographs by Chase & Company, January 5, 1932: Chase Collection (MS 14), box 211, folder 3.30B, <a href="http://web.uflib.ufl.edu/spec/" target="_blank">Special and Area Studies Collections</a>, George A.

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."

Title First Street Looking West from Sanford Avenue on the 4th of July Alternative Title 4th of July on First Street Subject Sanford (Fla.) Streets--Florida Fourth of July 4th of July Independence Day (U.S.) July Fourth Description In 1870, a lawyer from Connecticut by the name of Henry Sanford 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. This image of First Street looking west from Sanford Avenue was taken on July 4, 1886, when businesses were developing and families were settling. However, in the following year, disaster and devastation hit the city of Sanford in the form of fires, freezes, and disease. In September of 1887, a bakery on on First Street caught fire, which lead to the rapid spread through other wooden buildings, eventually causing the east side of Sanford to disappear in devastation. Luckily, rebuilding began immediately with brick structures, rather than the flammable wood. This photo can provide an idea of what life was like during the 1880s in Sanford, and how quickly it can be destroyed.

Title Looking Southwest from First Street and Palmetto Avenue Alternative Title First Street and Palmetto Avenue Subject Citrus fruit industry--Florida Chase, Sydney Octavius, 1860-1941 Chase, Joshua Coffin, 1858-1948 Sanford (Fla.) Streets--Florida Avenues Description Looking southwest from the intersection of East First Street and North Palmetto Avenue in Sanford, Florida in 1882. When Henry Shelton Sanford purchased land in central Florida, he developed citrus groves known as the Belair Groves and Experimental Gardens. The citrus industry of the 1870s was gaining interest nationally because of the success, and potential international success as well. Sydney Chase, Sr. of Pennsylvania found magazines and newspapers articles that there were great fortunes to be made in Florida in the citrus industry. Chase moved to Sanford, Florida in 1878, where he began working for Henry S. Sanford at the Belair Groves and Experimental Gardens. After learning the trade with his experience with Sanford, Chase and his brother Joshua created the Chase & Company in 1884. They began selling fertilizer and fire insurance to other citrus and produce growers. After making enough money, the Chase brothers bought their own citrus groves two years later. The Chase family and their business helped boost the citrus industry in Florida, especially in Sanford. They were so successful, other citrus growers from the state were asking for their help to sell their products. In high demand for help, the brothers began to build packinghouses. Not only was the citrus industry growing in Florida and throughout the United States, Sydney Chase took the industry global by traveling abroad to market their company and what Sanford had to offer.

Golf--Florida Country clubs--Florida Description The Sanford Country Club and Golf Course was originally purchased as a portion of a 20,000-acre tract by General Joseph Finegan for $40. In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) purchased the tract and sold some of it in 1878 to Charles Amory. In 1922, the City of Sanford bought 152-acres to design and construct a municipal 18-hole golf course. The course opened in October of 1922 with only four holes available for playing. The remainder of the golf course was opened in September of 1924. From 1927 to 1939, the golf course and country club experienced once of its most successful periods, with visits from some of golf's greatest athletes, such as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen. The club, for a time, saw a state of disrepair and depression. For a short time, the club became the Seminole County Club after renovation in 1945. Then, in the late 1940s, the New York Giants acquired the Mayfair Inn property for Spring Training, which allowed them to take control of the golf course. This led to the most prosperous period of the golf course and country club becoming a part of the PGA tour between 1955 to 1957, seeing players like Arnold Palmer tee-off on the course. Now called the Mayfair Country Club, the club and golf course is located at 3536 Country Club Road in Sanford, Florida.

Golf--Florida Country clubs--Florida Description The Sanford Country Club and Golf Course was originally purchased as a portion of a 20,000-acre tract by General Joseph Finegan for $40. In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) purchased the tract and sold some of it in 1878 to Charles Amory. In 1922, the City of Sanford bought 152-acres to design and construct a municipal 18-hole golf course. The course opened in October of 1922 with only four holes available for playing. The remainder of the golf course was opened in September of 1924. From 1927 to 1939, the golf course and country club experienced once of its most successful periods, with visits from some of golf's greatest athletes, such as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen. The club, for a time, saw a state of disrepair and depression. For a short time, the club became the Seminole County Club after renovation in 1945. Then, in the late 1940s, the New York Giants acquired the Mayfair Inn property for Spring Training, which allowed them to take control of the golf course. This led to the most prosperous period of the golf course and country club becoming a part of the PGA tour between 1955 to 1957, seeing players like Arnold Palmer tee-off on the course.

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 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."

Title Fourth of July Celebration Along Commercial Street in Sanford Alternative Title 4th of July on Commercial Street Subject Sanford (Fla.) Hotels--Florida Historical hotels 4th of July July Fourth Independence Day (U.S.) Fourth of July Description Fourth of July celebrations along Commercial Street in 1886. The large building on the right is the Sanford House Hotel, which was built by Henry Sanford (1823-1891) with the intent of attracting tourists and providing housing for would-be wealthy settlers to the city of Sanford. The Sanford House Hotel was joined by the Lake Monroe House, a lower-cost alternative geared towards laborers, both of which were completed in 1876. Facing the waterfront, the hotel was located at the intersection of Commercial Street and Palmetto Avenue. The Sanford House Hotel featured three stories - two of which included porches- and enough rooms to serve 150 guests. The hotel's landscaping included flower beds and citrus trees. A boardwalk led visitors straight from $15 to $20 per week. The 1887 fire came very close to the Sanford House, and it was feared that sparks would add it to the destruction. What saved it were wet blankets which were draped from the roof and windows. The Sanford House Hotel was torn down in May of 1920. At the turn of the century, the Sanford House Hotel was the center of all major city events and celebrations. While guide books from the period often included positive reference to the hotel, it failed to attract many visitors. The hotel did not make any profit during its first years of operation. By its third year, the 1879-1880 season, the hotel netted only $800 in profits. The hotel continued to make meager profits for the remainder of the nineteenth century. Nonetheless, it served as a central point of focus during city celebrations during the period.

Title Vietnam War Collection Alternative Title Vietnam Collection Subject Vietnam War, 1961-1975 Veterans--Florida Description The Vietnam War was a Cold War Era "military conflict." The war was originally waged between Cambodia, Vietnam, and Laos. The United States became involved as a preventive measure to combat communism. The date of the war has been disputed, but a study in 1998 by the Department of Defense definitively put the start of the Vietnam War as November 1, 1955. The first combat military troops 9th Marine Expeditionary Brigade didn't arrive until 1965. With the arrival of the combat troops came the first traditional battles of combat fighting in the war. During the Vietnam War, not only did American military go into battle with and for South Vietnam, the military also trained members of South Vietnam to fight alongside during the war. Peace talks were attempted, with France moderating, beginning on May 10, 1968. These talks were unsuccessful and lasted over three years. The longest battle of the Vietnam War began on January 21, 1968 and didn't end until the U.S. reclaimed Route 9 on April 8, 1968, 77 days later. While the military conflict ended in April of 1975, it was a long process towards reunification and redevelopment as a country. The conflict left Vietnam in both political and economical ruins.

Friedman's military service in Vietnam during the Vietnam War (1961-1975). Friedman was born on August 28, 1946 in Rockway Beach, New York. In 1966, he enlisted in the United States Navy and served in the U.S.S. Forrestal G Division, which engaged in combat operations in the Gulf of Tonkin. Friedman achieved the rank of Petty Officer, 3rd Class. He was injured in the 1967 fire that devastated the Forrestal and killed 134 of his shipmates. Friedman ended his service on November 19, 1967. During his service, he received the National Defense Medal and the Vietnam Service Medal. This oral history interview was conducted by Ettore M. Lanza in Coral Springs, Florida on March 21, 2011. The Vietnam War was a Cold War Era "military conflict". The war was originally waged between Cambodia, Vietnam, and Laos. The United States became involved as a preventive measure to combat communism. The official date of the military conflict is November 1, 1955 and ending in April 1975. The date of the war has been disputed, but a study in 1998 by the Department of Defense definitively put the start of the Vietnam War as November 1, 1955. The first combat military troops 9th Marine Expeditionary Brigade didn't arrive until 1965. With the arrival of the combat troops came the first traditional battles of combat fighting in the war. During the Vietnam War, not only did American military go into battle with and for South Vietnam, the military also trained members of South Vietnam to fight alongside during the war. Peace talks were attempted, with France moderating, beginning on May 10, 1968. These talks were unsuccessful and lasted over three years. The longest battle of the Vietnam War began on January 21, 1968 and didn't end until the U.S. reclaimed Route 9 on April 8, 1968, seventy-seven days later. While the military conflict ended in 1975, it was a long process towards reunification and redevelopment as a country. The conflict left Vietnam in both political and economical ruins. While the U.S. military was fighting overseas, Many American citizens protested the war at home. Demonstrations took place across the country with the most famous one being at Kent State University in Ohio. While this is the most well known demonstration it was not the first. Americans questioned the U.S. involvement in the war throughout. Abstract Oral history interview of Paul H. Friedman. Interview conducted by Ettore M. Lanza in Coral Springs, Florida.

Hite was born on March 23, 1947 in Centralia, Illinois. In 1972, he enlisted in the United States Air Force and trained at Blyheville Air Force Base in Blyheville, Arkansas. He served in Thailand during the Vietnam War and then returned back to Blyheville to work as First 2nd LT Radar Navigator.

He also was assigned duties during Operation Desert Storm (1991). Throughout his service, Hite served in various units, including 97th Bomb Wine, 340th Bomb Squadron, 1st Combat Evaluation Group, HQ Strategic Air Command, 7th Air Division, and DET 1 8th Air Force (SAC) Central Command. He achieved the rank of Major and received both the Commendation Medal and the Meritorious Service Medal. Hite left the military on May 31, 1992 and began working at the University of Central Florida. This oral history interview was conducted by Edmund Kallina at the UCF Research Parkway in Orlando, Florida on October 12, 2012. The Vietnam War was a Cold War Era "military conflict". The war was originally waged between Cambodia, Vietnam, and Laos. The United States became involved as a preventive measure to combat communism. The official date of the military conflict is November 1, 1955 and ending in April 1975. The date of the war has been disputed, but a study in 1998 by the Department of Defense definitively put the start of the Vietnam War as November 1, 1955.

While the U.S. military was fighting overseas, Many American citizens protested the war at home. Demonstrations took place across the country with the most famous one being at Kent State University in Ohio. While this is the most well known demonstration it was not the first. Americans questioned the U.S. involvement in the war throughout. Abstract Oral history interview of Charles Lewis Hite.

Golf--Florida Country clubs--Florida Description The Sanford Country Club and Golf Course was originally purchased as a portion of a 20,000-acre tract by General Joseph Finegan for $40. In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) purchased the tract and sold some of it in 1878 to Charles Amory. In 1922, the City of Sanford bought 152-acres to design and construct a municipal 18-hole golf course. The course opened in October of 1922 with only four holes available for playing. The remainder of the golf course was opened in September of 1924. From 1927 to 1939, the golf course and country club experienced once of its most successful periods, with visits from some of golf's greatest athletes, such as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen. The club, for a time, saw a state of disrepair and depression. For a short time, the club became the Seminole County Club after renovation in 1945. Then, in the late 1940s, the New York Giants acquired the Mayfair Inn property for Spring Training, which allowed them to take control of the golf course. This led to the most prosperous period of the golf course and country club becoming a part of the PGA tour between 1955 to 1957, seeing players like Arnold Palmer tee-off on the course. Now called the Mayfair Country Club, the club and golf course is located at 3536 Country Club Road in Sanford, Florida.

Golf--Florida Golf courses--Florida Description Workers are seen clearing land from the position of the tee at the Sanford Country Club and Golf Course in 1922. The land for the club and course was originally purchased as a portion of a 20,000-acre tract by General Joseph Finegan for $40. In 1870, Henry Sanford purchased the tract and sold some of it in 1878 to Charles Amory. In 1922, the city of Sanford bought 152-acres to design and construct a municipal 18-hole golf course. The course opened in October of 1922 with only four holes available for playing. The remainder of the golf course was opened in September of 1924. From the year 1927-1939, the golf course and country club experienced once of its most successful periods, seen some of golf's greatest athletes such as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen. The club, for a time, saw a state of disrepair and depression. For a short time, the club became the Seminole County Club after renovation in 1945. Then, in the late 1940s, the New York Giants received the Mayfair Inn for Spring training which allowed them to take control of the golf course. This led to the most prosperous period of the golf course and country club becoming a part of the PGA tour between 1955 to 1957, seeing players like Arnold Palmer tee-off on the course. Now called the Mayfair Country Club, the club and golf course is located at 3536 Country Club Road in Sanford, Florida.

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.

The Florida Citrus Exchange was founded by a group of growers on June 21, 1909 to help improve production of citrus in the state. Members shared facilities and helped establish operation and shipping standards. Both Sydney and Joshua Chase were hesitant to join the Exchange because they did not want to jeopardize the business they had successfully managed. Chase & Company eventually became a part of the Exchange, but backed out three years later.

Oct 19/28 Dear Josh: Have Tampa Tribune of 17th containing Coreys oration attacking the enemies of the citrus industry and generally trying to disrupt a real get together making movement amongst all marketing organizations of the state including the Citrus Ex. How does he or the Growers expect the Clearing Ho. to continue in face of Coreys attempt to have them repudiate the amendments to Constitution and By-Laws of the original organization which provided for creation of an operating Com. & for them to have the management of the organization in their control as well as to select a manager. If they succeed in repudiating the final get together agreement which made it possible for the Independents to unite with the organization they will automatically release every Independent from the contract they signed & Coreys threat they will not be free from the binding provisions of their contracts is all bunk. If the Directors are forced to break the last hour agreement let them do it & then withdraw. I would rather operate our groves on no profit [. . .] [. . .] basis for a year or so than have Coachman & his bunch run us into a corner. I suggested Jno Taylors name before suggesting Pratts. L.B. questioned Taylors qualifications for the job but never questioned his fitness otherwise. If John is selected by the Directors he will probably feel under obligations to the Coachman bunch though I hesitate to think so myself. I have the highest regard for Taylor integrity, fairness etc. It’s a rather shame all this mess has been result of scheming of the Coachman bunch working under cover of an unborn cooperative organization as yet never having shipped any citrus, unless within the last few days.

Mr. J.C. Chase, Orlando, Fla. Dear Josh: When I returned to Sanford this afternoon I read the article in the Times Union setting forth Mr. Penny's plan for reorganizing the citrus and vegetable crops of Florida. There are two conditions mentioned in the proposition which I think will make it impossible for him to ever become the head of such a marketing organization. The first is it had to be 100 per cent movement on the part of the growers and shippers. The next point which I noticed which was in real conflict with any governmental cooperation was that different officials and heads of the different departments should participate in the profits; they should all work for a small salary, and get a bonus at the end of each year. I have always understood that a cooperative organization was operated on a non-profit basis, simply covering actual expenses. I know there are a couple of growers in the state who will not go in on the deal, and that is you and I. I prefer to stay on the outside. Another thing, as I understand Penny's business he has been handling non-perishable merchandise. He has cooperated with himself and his employees, was enabled to sell cheaper than his competitors, and thereby make a small profit on volume sales.When you are handling perishables, which are similar in a sense to snowballs, you cannot function along the same lines which it would be safe to use when handling non-perishables.

Mr. J. C. Chase, Orlando, Fla. Dear Josh: I want to congratulate you on signing up the Pryor contract for the Orlando house. Unquestionably this is the biggest block of fruit which has ever been secured at one time for the Orlando house thru the combined efforts of our entire organization. As information, if you can do so, I would like to know how many boxes of fruit which passed thru the Orlando house this season were contract fruit and how many boxes were packed for others. Yesterday I spent from noon until six o'clock going over tomato fields and young citrus plantings on drained lands west of Vero and Wabasso, including the McNiff property. It is almost unbelievable when shown groves that have only been planted three to five years that compare favorably with groves in the central part of the state which have been out eight and, ten years. This growth has resulted from the use of but very little fertilizer. Old Eli. Walker, who is the Granddaddy of the citrus business in that section, doesn't use 1000# of fertilizer per acre per year to big bearing trees. He has a wonderful grove, but I know he would produce more fruit, and better sized fruit, he he used a ton of fertilizer to the acre. Eli's plan is to give each tree individual treatment, and only give it fertilizer when he sees it getting yellow, or apparently needing some stimulent, but does not, according to his own statement, give a general fertilizing but once a year and that a very light one. I met Mr. Graves, who is the principal owner and Tzar of the Sebastian Lana Company. The land he has was purchased from the Barnetts. Their first move was to cut the timber, from this land, using portable sawmills; after the timber was cut they then leased the land to tomato growers, of course after certain drainage canals have been put in. After the land has been used for trucking for three or four seasons they then plant it to citrus. This past season they planted out 400 or 500 acres in citrus, some tangerines, a good many Valencias, and some grapefruit. I had quite a visit with this Mr. Graves, who is a big tobacco grower at Quincy, Florida. McNiff tells me that they marketed their citrus this year thru the American Fruit Growers. McNiff is of the opinion that with proper efforts on our part, if we can lease a packing house at Wabasso or some other point close to their property, we would stand a good chance of signing them up for this year; and he also believes if we would join them in putting up a modern packing house, located where they would prefer, that they might put up half the money for the construction of same. I think this section is well worth careful investigation, with a view of increasing our citrus business in that vicinity. If any new packing houses are considered at all I would prefer putting them in this section to any part in the central part of the state or thru the Thonotosassa section. I saw large guava trees which passed thru the cold spell of this winter with full foliage, and with green fruit on it. This is proof that the average cold does not effect them seriously. It is a deep warm soil, and I think the big drainage canals act as cold drainage, cold air being carried off to river bottoms thru these canals. The soil which the dredges cut thru is sometimes five or six feet of sand loan, some clay and some shell, and in no instance did I see quicksand. I am sorry I did not visit this section years ago. MCNIFF GROVE, AT WABASSO: I was agreeably surprised by the land embraced in this deal. The grove itself is looking very much better than it did some weeks ago, however it shows evidence of having been badly handled, and a year or eighteen months of neglect. Some trees will have to be taken out, and new trees set. There is a considerable acreage which can be set right away with some expense connected with mounding the ground up and providing drainage leading to the drainage canal. The land can be gotten in shape and the trees planted in May or June. Nothing would be gained in attempting to plant them now, as all nursery stock is covered with new growth and for that reason it is not a good time to transplant. I think the title of this property is now in shape to close the deal up. The objections which Foster found to the title, as exposed by the abstract, the Vero attorney states have been corrected by deeds in his possession which have not as yet been put on record. Randall and Foster will probably go down that way next week and close the deal. I understand that McMichael, the American Fruit Growers head man in that territory, has been confined to the house for the past thirty days with heart trouble, and is flat of his back. McMichael was pretty heavily interested in some of the banks in Vero which closed in the past year, and McNiff thinks he has worried too much over some of his personal business matters.

Title Florida Citrus Exchange Collection Alternative Title FEC Collection Subject Florida Citrus Exchange Citrus fruit industry--Florida Chase and Company (Sanford, Fla.) 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.

Orlando (Fla.) Chase and Company (Sanford, Fla.) Florida Citrus Exchange Description An original letter of correspondence between brothers and business partners Sydney Octavius Chase and Joshua Coffin Chase. The letter contains information about W. J. Lee, an agent in the Florida Citrus Clearinghouse, and his motive for other Florida agents to use content in a recently printed newspaper article to interest potential customers. Sydney's disapproval on the matter and the need for the Exchange's chairman, Archie M. Pratt, to be the sole person making decisions for all Florida agents is also discussed in the letter. Carbon copies of Sydney's letter to Lee and Lee's letter to all Florida agents were also enclosed. Chase & Company was established by the brothers in 1884. The company sold insurance and later invested in storage facilities and fertilizer sales. Chase & Company was established by the brothers in 1884.

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. The Florida Citrus Exchange was founded by a group of growers on June 21, 1909 to help improve production of citrus in the state. Members shared facilities and helped establish operation and shipping standards. Both Sydney and Joshua Chase were hesitant to join the Exchange because they did not want to jeopardize the business they had successfully managed. Chase & Company eventually became a part of the Exchange, but backed out three years later. In 1928, Pratt operated and managed the Florida Citrus Clearinghouse.

Mr. J. C. Chase, Orlando, Fla. Dear Josh: I am enclosing carbon copy of letter I am writing to W. J. Lee, with reference to the last clause in a mimeograph circular letter he sent out to All Florida Agents. I think it is a mighty dangerous proposition to pass out such a circular letter as this instructing agents to make use of libelous information, which may or may not be based on facts, against our competitors, until we know exactly how it stands. I cannot see where the economy, or desirability, comes in to issue mimeograph bulletins when we only have about half a dozen agents to reach. Gestures of this kind, do not appeal to me a bit. I really think as long as Mr. Pratt is making a personal effort to round up new tonnage for the coming season that Mr. Lee, or any other member of the Orlando office force, should confer with Mr. Pratt before they release instructions which might be in direct conflict with some of Mr. Pratt's ideas, and offset some of the good work which he has already accomplished. Yours very truly, S.O.C Enclosure. SOC:HMR. DISTRIBUTORS Sunniland FRUITS AND VEGETABLES March 17, 1928. Mr. W.J. Lee, c/o Chase & Co., Orlando, Fla. Dear Sir:- Referring to your circular letter of the 16th, with reference to contract turned in by Wm. Vogt. The last paragraph of this circular letter refers to mailing each of our District Agents a copy of the Tri City Times of March 9. It is alright to have this paper mailed to the District agents, but in my judgment it is not alright to instruct them to carry the paper around with them and show it to any interested parties. Until we know more about the Exchange side of this attack I be very careful in instructing our Agents as to how to handle themselves with regard to the article which appears in the Tri-City Times. This morning's Orlando paper carried a dispatch article to the effect that there is a suit instituted against the Tri-City times, as well as McCoy, account of the article referred to above. Chase & Company never have used methods of this kind to get business, and we don't want to start it now, so I would immediately cancel the instructions given in the last paragraph of your circular letter. As a matter of fact the writer cannot see any necessity of issueing a mimeograph letter to our Florida Agents when they can all be covered in a circular letter at less expense to the Company. If we had a hundred or so agents it would be different. Yours very truly, SOC:HMR. CARLOT DISTRIBUTORS CITRUS FRUITS AND VEGETABLES ORLANDO, FLORIDA March 16, 1928. TO ALL FLORIDA AGENTS: Gentlemen:- This morning we are in receipt of a letter from Mr. Will Vogt, District Agent at Frostproof, enclosing a straight marketing contract for next year covering the Wm. Walker Grove. This grove consists of 20 acres, and while the trees are young, should carry about 2000 boxes next year. This business was secured on the merits of Chase & Company as marketing agent and did not involve any loan or advance. This is desirable business. If there are any growers in your district who are dissatisfied with a competitive marketing organization, whether it be cooperative or private, now is the time to get them pried loose. There are certain contracts that the Exchange has in effect which provide that if not cancelled by May 1st, they automatically bind for another year. You should call the attention of any dissatisfied growers to this situation and see that they file their withdrawal at an early date. Under separate cover we are mailing each of our district agents a copy of the Tri-City Times of March 9th, with a marked article on the front page. You can carry this around with you as talking material and show it to any interested parties. It looks like pretty hot stuff! Yours very truly, CHASE & COMPANY, W. J. Lee.

Description An original letter of correspondence between brothers and business partners Sydney Octavius Chase and Joshua Coffin Chase. Topics discussed in the letter include information about an annual banquet held at Penney Farms, and other information about members of the Florida Citrus Exchange including L. W. Tilden and Earl Work. Chase & Company was established by the brothers 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. The Florida Citrus Exchange was founded by a group of growers on June 21, 1909 to help improve production of citrus in the state. Members shared facilities and helped establish operation and shipping standards. Both Sydney and Joshua Chase were hesitant to join the Exchange because they did not want to jeopardize the business they had successfully managed. Chase & Company eventually became a part of the Exchange, but backed out three years later.

Mr. J. C. Chase, Orlando, Fla. Dear Josh: I have your note of yesterday, written at Winter Park, enclosing Dr. Burdette Lewis’, invitation to attend the Third Annual Banquet to be held at the Penny Farms. In spite of the fact that we considered this Penny development a little doubtful one so far as its ultimate success is concerned I believe that it might be a good scheme if you could attend a portion of the banquet exercises during the day, and eliminate yourself in the evening. There will be lot of hot air released, and many statements made which you cannot indorse, but nevertheless you will be getting information which will be helpful. I learned today that Dr. Lewis, the economist, was at one time employed by the A.A.C. Company, with headquarters at Pierce, Florida. I doubt whether he has ever handled any agricultural development successfully, so far as follars and cents are concerned. He is one of these men who is full of theories and knows how it should be done, and can tell others how to do it, but fails when he attempts to do it himself. He may still be on the payroll of the A. A. C. Company. I would feel convinced he was if the Penny Farms are heavy users of the A. A. C. goods. I was not favored with an invitation. Did you know that Earl Work had a nerveous breakdown some months ago, immediately following the death of the President of Work's bank, and that he has been out in the woods somewhere in Lee County ever since, occasionally coming from under cover when it is necessary for him to officially preside at the Exchange meetings? I also learned today that Mr. L. W. Tilden is reported to be improving at Johns Hopkins, and the doctors state that in about three months he will be O.K. again, but state that if he returns to his old activities he is apt to have another breakdown. Wilbur Tilden and his sons are looking after his affairs during his absence. I presume you noticed in today's Tampa Tribune, on the last page, the make-up of the citrus meeting held in Arcadia. Some smart alex has recently visited California and knows all about it. The Citrus Forum article in today's Tribune is another slant on how to control the movement of citrus fruits, which will result in increased revenue for the crop.

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."

C. Chase, Camden, Maine Dear Josh: Gray promised to mail to Justice tonight at least four complete audits of the Chase & Company business for the year ending July 31, 1927. He is incorporating in this audit some supplementary information, which he has not heretofore included in his audit, which he thought would be helpful to Justice when interviewing some of our banking connections. I am enclosing copy of letter am writing Justice today. I was very much surprised to learn that the sales in the merchandise department of the Sanford office for the past month checks up about equal with August 1926, in that the fertilizer items were not as heavy as a year ago but the building material items exceed those of a year ago. We have a right good man on the outside, and he seems to be getting the business. We are watching the accounts, and when necessary will protect ourselves by filing builder's liens before it is too late to do so. We have a large booking for fertilizer, but it has not yet commenced to move out, hence is not included in our August figures. Leffler has been away, for a month, and is ex¬pected home on the afternoon of the 5th, Matters in town since the closing of the Seminole bank have been more or less confused so far as money matters are concerned, however the American Growers have some sort of sewer connection with some Federal Land Bank organization, thru whom they are having some of the growers financed. The growers pay a bonus, and then give a mortgage to protect the Farm Loan Bank. It may be they are operating under DISTRIBUTORS Sunniland FRUITS AND VEGETABLES PACKERS AND S H I PPERS FLORIDA FRUITS AND VEGETABLES SANFORD, FLORIDA 42 the Federal Land Bank which is located at Columbia. Some¬how I do not look with favor upon this sort of financing. We were in hopes that the acreage planted to celery this year would be considerably less than a year ago, but if this form of financing continues the acreage will not be reduced as much as we hoped for. The First National Bank is not loosening up very much. They have weathered the trying conditions very satisfactorily, and are showing a slight gain in deposits. I am expecting Mr. Boggs here tonight, and have asked him to stop with us at the house. There are certain matters in connection with the City affairs which I think he can be of considerable assistance on by working with DeCottes. It would be impossible to have a lawyer working independent of DeCottes at the present time. It looks to me as if the Chase National Bank is bound to lose a bunch of money, due to the fact that they accepted unauthorized issues of City certificates of indebtedness, which were passed to them by Lake without being authorized by the Commission or anyone else. The State Bank Examiner expected to complete his work far enough to make a preliminary report to the Comptroller at the end of this week. Just what loss will fall on the City is difficult t to determine at this time. Lake told me that he had advanced the City several hundred thousand dollars to cover payments on improvements, which were to be lifted as, and when, we had bond sales. It seems that as soon as he got certificates of indebtedness covering unauthorized advances he immediately hypothecated these certificates so it happened during the intrum when there was about half a million dollars in bond money placed to the credit of the Seminole County Bank in the Chase National Bank, proceeds from the sale of bonds the 1st. of July, the City was not protected, and this is where we got in trouble, although I think I told you when you were here in July that as the Seminole County Bank had advanced more money to the City than the City had on deposit we had an DISTRIBUTORS Sunniland FRUITS AND VEGETABLES FLORIDA FRUITS AND VEGETABLES SANFORD, FLORIDA off-set, and were safe.

Title Letter from Sydney Chase to Joshua Chase (August 29, 1927) Alternative Title Chase Correspondence (August 29, 1927) Subject Chase, Sydney Octavius, 1860-1941 Chase, Joshua Coffin, 1858-1948 Citrus fruit industry--Florida Federal Trade Commission (U.S.) Florida Citrus Exchange Tung oil industry--United States Gainesville (Fla.) Sanford (Fla.) Orlando (Fla.) Polk County (Fla.) Winter Haven (Fla.) Haines City (Fla.) Orange County (Fla.) Crescent City (Fla.) Description An original letter of correspondence between brothers and business partners Sydney Octavius Chase and Joshua Coffin Chase. The letter contains information about an interview Sydney and other members of the Florida Citrus Exchange had with a Mr. Edward Fisher, an examiner from the Federal Trade Commission. The topic of discussion between the group of men related to the Florida Citrus Exchange's methods in marketing in comparison to independent marketing campaigns. Sydney also recounts a trip through Gainesville, Florida, to inspect tung oil groves. Chase & Company was established by the brothers 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. The Florida Citrus Exchange was founded by a group of growers on June 21, 1909 to help improve production of citrus in the state. Members shared facilities and helped establish operation and shipping standards. Both Sydney and Joshua Chase were hesitant to join the Exchange because they did not want to jeopardize the business they had successfully managed. Chase & Company eventually became a part of the Exchange, but backed out three years later.

Mr. J.C. Chase, Camden, Maine, Dear Josh: I spent the entire day Saturday in the Orlando office. A representative of the Federal Trade Commission, from Washington, is in the state endeavoring to assemble data with reference to the results obtained on the marketing of citrus fruits thru the independent marketing agencies vs. the Florida Citrus Exchange, calling itself a true co-operative organization, the only co-operative and non-profiting organization in the state. He did, not want to compare results of the co-operative organization with those of Gentile Bros. for the reason that the majority of their fruit was either produced on their own groves or purchased, and having a very limited brokerage business. The same applies to the Standard Growers. The American 2ruit Growers have everything. The Exchange stated that if the independents were willing to have him go into their results that it would be agreeable to them for him to examine their records for comparative purposes. He is now at work on the American Fruit Growers' records, and stated that he would have to segregate the merchandising crops from their contract or brokerage crops. It being impossible for him to make a state wide comparison he has decided to use results obtained thru packing houses putting up Polk County fruit, uwing the Winter Haven Fruit Exchange as the co-operative organization; the American Growers, either their Haines City or Klem house but I think the Haines City house; and wanted to use our Eloise house, as he felt that the general average of quality of fruit passing thru these three houses would be approximately the same. He is not interested in checking the operating expenses of the packing houses, but takes the fruit after being packed, on an f.o.b. packing house basis. Mr. Pratt, Bogue, and I were interviewing him. He stated that he was not interested in any of the activities from the grove to the packing house. Mr. Pratt suggested that in order to have the right kind of a com¬parison he should base his findings on the field crate de¬livery to the packing house, and check that against the packed crate output. That would disclose the amount of fruit culled out, sent to the cannery, or put in the third grade. Mr. Edward Fisher, the examiner, could not see that that would have any bearing on the situation. finally asked him if the Federal Trade Commission was en¬deavoring to ascertain the net results to the grower, or producer, on a given amount of fruit produced or whether they were trying to ascertain which packing house graded the best and got an extreme price for a very limited quantity of first grade fruit. After about a half hour’s talk the light of day dawned, and he stated he saw our point, and would have to go back and get some additional data in order to complete his investigation in one or two points where he had been working. As I understood it the American Fruit Growers, and often the Exchange, only pack out about 80 per cent of the bulk fruit which comes to the house, whereas we pack out almost box for box, except on an occasional crop where there is a heavy cullage account of scab or other defects. After he agreed to base his findings on field crate deliveries we told him we had no objection to his reviewing our records. He is to separate the auction results from the F. 0. B. results. He can get nearly all the information he wants from the averages we have already prepared. The only thing he will have to take into consideration is the destination, without using the name of the dealer who gets the car. The information he gets from all these organizations will be held strictly confidential, and it is likely it will be two or three years before they are compiled in a report and go to Congress, and when it does nobody's name will be used. This man is sent out by the Federal Trade Commission for the reason that on March 17, 1925, following a meeting of some agricultural convention which was held in Washington, and to which you were a delegate, it was requested that this data be compiled as a guide for further and future legislation on the part of Congress. The interview with this man was very interesting and enlightening. He admitted that there were a large number of so called co-operatives who fell short, for some reason or another, in being classed as 100 per cent co¬operative institutions, and were barred from preferred assist¬ance of the government. After talking with many people interested in the in¬dustry he seemed to feel that there should be a comparative statement rendered with reference to the Orange County citrus movement, and selected Isleworth to check against the Winter Garden Exchange. Both houses are equipped with pre-cooling, and the fruit handled is very similar as to quality. The bulk of their fruit is forwarded to auction. I told him that the average auction results would not disclose the information I thought they wanted, and it would be necessary for him to check from the auction sales prices obtained on each size and grade, and then make comparison of such findings. I am satisfied that Mr. Fisher got some real infor¬mation from the conference we had together, and some very valuable information. He told me that he did not want to appear as handing out any compliments, but that quite a number of the Exchanged people had stated that we had always been fair in all our dealings, held an enviable reputation, and we were such nice people they did not understand why we had not joined the Exchange. I expect to visit Orlando tomorrow afternoon, and see how this party is getting on. Mr. Pratt and Patterson were leaving Orlando this morning to make an inspection tour of all districts, including Manatee and Dunedin, spending enough time at each place to get an insight into the present status of the first bloom fruit, as well as the late bloom. They will probably be absent the entire week. Randall and drove to Gainesville yesterday, going via Crescent City and returning via Ocala and Leesburg. We stopped at Crescent City, but Mr. Shiver was not at home and Mrs. Shiver did not know just where we could locate him, so we did not tarry. Groves all thru that section look thrifty and well, but with few ex¬ceptions the groves in sight of the highway have a light crop, including our own groves. The same condition applied to groves we passed prior to darkness on our re turn trip. We got caught in the rain near Weirsdale, and remained in it until after we got past Mount Lora. Our trip yesterday was to inspect Tung Oil orchards, or groves, which were planted two or three years ago around Gainesville. The three year old trees are pro ducing quite some nuts this year. Isleworth lung Oil trees also have a crop of nuts. Next year, however, accord¬ing to Mr. Williamson who seems to be an authority on the Tung Oil business, we should have a larger crop. He states that at four years and thereafter the trees should increase in production quite rapidly, if given proper attention. In 1928 they expect to have a Tung Oil factory in Gainesville ready to take care of the crop that season. This year's crop will be sent out of the state to have the oil extracted.

Title Letter from Sydney Chase to Joshua Chase (August 26, 1927) Alternative Title Chase Correspondence (August 26, 1927) Subject Chase, Sydney Octavius, 1860-1941 Chase, Joshua Coffin, 1858-1948 Citrus fruit industry--Florida Florida Citrus Exchange Clearing houses Sanford (Fla.) Description An original letter of correspondence between brothers and business partners Sydney Octavius Chase and Joshua Coffin Chase. Topics discussed in the letter include the proposed creation of a Clearing House organization led by Chase & Company, and the brothers' reaction to Archie Pratt's, chairman of the Florida Citrus Exchange, comments on the matter. Sydney also enclosed a copy a letter from Joshua address to Pratt on August 21, 1927. Chase & Company was established by the brothers 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. The Florida Citrus Exchange was founded by a group of growers on June 21, 1909 to help improve production of citrus in the state. Members shared facilities and helped establish operation and shipping standards. Both Sydney and Joshua Chase were hesitant to join the Exchange because they did not want to jeopardize the business they had successfully managed. Chase & Company eventually became a part of the Exchange, but backed out three years later.

Mr. J. C. Chase, Camden, Maine. Dear Josh: On arrival at the office this morning I found yours of the 21st, addressed to Mr. Pratt. I have had a copy made of same, am forwarding the pen and ink original to Mr. Pratt, and am enclosing you a copy of same. If Mr. Pratt had been advised, or if he had taken the trouble to ascertain the nature of the meeting which was held in Orlando on July 19, and learned of Mr. Tenney's recommendations with regard to the preparation of form of contracts, by-laws, etc., for the proposed Clearing House organization we are endeavoring to create, he certainly would not have written Newton as he did. Mr. Tenney stressed the necessity of having it a growers organization, and to follow closely the par¬ticular form of organization which he recommended. There were three plans under discussion, and the one we are trying to follow is the one he indorsed, and expressed a willingness to furnish us additional help in the pre¬paration of contracts for the growers to sign, and other forms pertaining to the organization which we might ask for. The idea of following the government recommen-dations was to avoid having any of the growers charge that the larger sales organizations had formulated the plans for their own special benefit without regard to the in terests of the growers. Personally I do not think that it is merely a gesture on the part of those interested in the creation of the clearing house organization to endeavor to have it a growers foundation. After reading over your letter to Pratt I thought it just as well to let it slide. Yours very truly, SOC:HMR. DISTRIBUTORS Sunniland FRUITS AND VEGETABLES Dear Archie: Note copy of your long letter of the 16th to Newton and almost as long reason therefore of the 17th, neither necessary if Newton was then in Orlando. He is certainly just as much entitled to his vacation as you were, and as you have had yours it is hardly fair to begrudge his. Altho you were requested by me by wire and letter to secure some first hand information concerning the forms, agreements, etc. of organizations on the coast similar to the proposed. Clearing House I am not advised that you did a thing of a helpful nature. Somehow the tone of both of your letters to Newton does not meet with my approval. If you have anything on your chest work it off in a personal conference, and' not over the radio. In my opinion your letters will do more harm than good. Neither will tend toward team work or create a spirit of cooperation absolutely necessary if all operators are to work together under any plan. Tenney agreed to furnish, if requested, all forms of agreements, plans, contracts, etc. He understood what was required and should have given the matter attention. Newton should not be held responsible for the delay. You should post yourself before you jump on anyone. We discussed the question of forms and. I advised having same drawn up by Tenney's department to be adjusted by the Committee to conditions confronting the Florida citrus industry. We thought this essential to avoid adverse criticisms from Commander and others if contracts made up by committee. As far as I know no word came back from Washington such as you picked up from Kitchen. In my last conversation with Tenney, after the Orlando meeting, he made the statement that with modifications he thought the Eastern Shore Potato forms and agreements could be made to fit for Florida. Did you see Newton before he left? Are you in touch with Mouser, and have you personally gone over Newton's files in Mouser's possession? If not you had better do so and post yourself. Try to dismiss from your mind the idea that you are the only cooperator, and if other's do not play ball your way they are wrong, and you are always right. As one of your well wishers let me suggest that from now on you abbreviate all of your letters, circulars, etc. Boil down what you have to say to the smallest space; condence to one sheet what you put on three. All questions of policy concerning Chase & Company discuss before writing with Mr. S. 0. Chase, W. J. Lee, A. R. Bogue, W. A. Leffler, or Randall Chase, in order named if matters require quick handling. Sincerely yours, J. C. CHASE. Has Format Copy of original letter from Joshua Coffin Chas to Archie M.

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."

Mr. J. C. Chase, Orlando, Fla. Dear Josh: On the return trip from Jacksonville this morning I noticed there had been a wreck a short distance south of Buffalo Bluff. Sealdsweet oranges and other perishables, in plain and printed boxes, were scattered over the right-of-way for some distance. Many partially wrecked refrigerator cars were on the siding. I imagine that one of the night perishable trains leaving Sanford around mid-night last night got into trouble. The track was clear so our south bound train was not held up materially, although we had to go slow for quite a distance. I noticed that Shiver was active in packing, but the other houses at Crescent City seemed to be quiet. The packing house directly south of Hammond, which is operated by A.C. Haines & Company, was active. The packing house south of Haines house, operated by the Growers Sales Agency, was closed. The Bob White house at DeLeon Springs was closed. I did not notice Alexander & Baird at Beresford. You might pass this information on to Mr. Pratt. I have yours regarding recommending Mr. Burr for appointment to fill the vacancy in the Railroad Commission created by the death of Commissioner Eaton. As soon as Robinson returns to Orlando would be glad to have you replay to me information you get from him. Mr. Skinner wired me about this same matter the day I left, but I did not get the wire until my return today. Yours very truly, S.O.C. DISTRIBUTORS Sunniland FRUITS AND VEGETABLES SOC:HMR.

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."

C. Chase Orlando, Fla. Dear Josh:- I am enclosing clipping from the Tampa Tribune of the 11th, with reference to urging the growers of the West Coast to organize and market thru the Federated Fruit & Vegetable Association of America. If I remember correctly this organization has been fostered by Rule, formerly associated with Crutchfield, and his record of attempting to do big things and falling down has been well established. The Florida Vegetable Corporation, so called co-operative organization, formed at Sanford some three years ago has had their shipments handled by the Federated, and they are now financially on the rocks. I am wondering how many brokers we use are affiliated, or associated, with the Federated Fruit & Vegetable Association. I am writing Mr. Pratt today ask ing for a new list of our brokers, and requesting him to check the names of all brokers who are affiliated with this particular organization. It seems to me that Mr. Skinner's attention should be called to this Editorial article, so he could warn who¬ever has charge of writing up these editorials against making recommendations of this character without knowing more about the organization they are recommending to the growers at large. The Manatee Celery Growers, who market their crop thru the Manayee Growers Association, are shipping less every year. Whether it is due to unprofitable returns received or to other causes I do not know. I would like to have you look into this matter. I am enclosing carbon copy of letter received this morning from A. J. Mitchell, Weather Man at Jacksonville, with reference to the low temperature reported at Arcadia. last week. If you examine the weather map of yesterday you will note that the atmospheric pressure lines run north and south, which has permitted the cold to spread all over the country in a northerly and southerly direct ion. If the barometers at Jacksonville and further south had ranged a few points below the atmospheric pressure reported up along the Great Lakes we would not have had as much cold here as we have today. I am anxious about tonight. The only thing which will help us will be for the wind to shift to the north, or north-east. We have instructed Stanley to fire the Goodall grove if the temperature gets below 28, but not to fire any until it reaches that point. I had intended to go to Arcadia tonight, but inasmuch as this cold wave is on I can tell more about what it has done to us there on Thursday than I could on Wednesday. I am now planning to leave Wednesday morning. Yours Very truly, S.O.C. Has Part Original newspaper article: <a href="http://tbo.com/" target="_blank">The Tampa Tribune</a>, January 11, 1927.

Citrus--Florida Citrus fruit industry--Florida 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.

Citrus--Florida Grapefruit Chase and Company (Sanford, Fla.) Description An original letter of correspondence written by Randall Chase to his father and Chase & Company business partner Sydney Chase. The letter discusses the troubles the Florida citrus industry faced in 1936 in selling grapefruit to its fullest potential. Randall Chase participated in a meeting where citrus growers identified the production and merchandising issues they faced when selling grapefruit. In that same year, a W .C. Daniells of Eustis wrote an article entitled, "The Plight of Grapefruit." In the article, Daniells stressed citrus growers and producers in Florida to start advertising the importance of grapefruit to a healthy life. Chase & Company was established by the brothers in 1884.

SANFORD, FLORIDA December 28, 196. Mr. S. 0. Chase Mr. J. C. Chase Mr. S. 0. Chase Jr. Gentlemen: Saturday, at the telegraphic request of Mr. C. H. Walker, I attended a meeting at the Lakeland Terrace of several growers and shippers interested in the grapefruit situation. Among those present were: H. C. Babcock John Snively L. Maxey Fred Davis Gunn, or the Lake Wales Assn. Fowler Vet. Brown Pringle, of Leesburg Fender, of the A.F.G. A representative of W. J. Howey, whose name I do not recall. Mossherger of the State Chamber of Commerce. Gnunne, also of the State Chamber of Commerce and Marketing Bureau. As might be expected, Snively dominated the talk with a lot of his school boy ideas. We convened shortly after ten o'clock, and a little after twelve adjourned with the following plan to be put into effect. A Committee, consisting of John Rust, C. H. Walker and A. M. Pratt are to contact the chain buyers to ascertain how many cars of grapefruit for each prorate period they estimate they could use. These three men would then add to it the estimated amount sold thru other sources. The Control Committee will be requested to pro¬rate the total amount of grapefruit estimated to be used. The chains expect to put on an advertising campaign, start¬ing January 12, and want to be sure they can get supplies after they are advertised. The chains feel it would be a mistake to put the price up too high, but feel they could get from 20 cents to 45 cents a box more than is now being paid without curtailing the consumption. CHASE & CO SANFORD. FLORIDA #2. December 28, 1936 The chains are no operating approximately 53,000 stores. Then they start the grapefruit advertising campaign they advise they are willing to handle grapefruit on the basis of 15%. At first there was a good deal of criticism in the direction of the present Control Committee, but before adjourning everyone felt that the Control Committee had a terrifically difficult job, nobody wanted to trade places with them, and they concurred that the present Control Committee was as good machinery to work with for a plan of control and merchandising as could be had. Confidentially, I saw Mr. Kirkland and Mr. John Clark for a few minutes after the grapefruit meeting adjourned. They advise they fear that injunction proceedings may he filed at any time by some of the smaller disgruntled shippers, because they cannot get prorates enough to operate their houses as fast as they would like. If an injunction is filed they hope ti get it thru the courts in about two weeks. Apparently the A.A.A. officials in Washington are backing up the present Control Committee, end the A.A.A. will handle the matter of prosecution on matters of over—shipments, and any other flagrant violation of regulations. In talking with Maxcy about the present prices on canned grapefruit he gave me the impression that an attempt is being made by some operators to stifle or smother out some smaller canneries which are attempting to start in business. The larger canners feel if they will sell cheap enough for a long enough period it will discourage or break some of the smaller operators. In the meantime the grower is paying the bill.

Citrus--Florida Citrus fruit industry--Florida 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.

FLORIDA October 29, 1936. Mr. S. O. Cheese, Asheville, N. C. Dear Dad: Tuesday morning I left here and went down the east coast. I stopped for a short time at the Wabasso Grove. They have had a super-abundance of rain south of Melbourne. The trees on the Wabasso grove are looking excellent, end I cannot sec that there has been any damage resulting to the trees. The Hamlins on the young trees have split very badly, end my guess would be we have lost from 25 to 55% of the crop. Henry has the place well mowed, ditches open, and the work well in hand. The old darky who once thought he wanted to sell his 40 acres adjoining ours has now decided he can get $80 an acre. He may be able to do it sometime this winter, as real estate values have ad¬vanced considerably and there is some activity in that territory. At Vero Beach I spent some time with Jack Napier Strong, who has leased a packing house at that point, end will operate sort of a truck depot for citrus fruits and vegetables. We have agreed to finance him to the extent of $1,500. for buying supplies, field crates, and some of his pay rolls. We will be interested fifty-fifty with his in the results of the packing house. Any fruit that is shipped will be shipped thru us. For the first year I do not expect there will be very much revenue. I think by working on a conservative basis we can in a year or so make a very nice little business from there. Investiga¬tions indicate that Strong is well thought of in Vera and by people who have done business with them, but that he has little financial responsibility at present. This is due chiefly to the fact that for the past two years he has endeavored to finance some farming operations and has to t. heavily in so doing, but so far as we have been able to ascertain all of his accounts are cleared up, but it has left him without funds . #2 . Mr. S. O. Chase. October 29, 1936. At Fort Pierce I stopped for a few minutes to look at the new Exchange house. It is a huge affair, and I expect one of the biggest in Florida. This is the house that Bill Mosley manages. The new building is down on the water front, right next to the pre-cooling terminals. They have two units of four sizers to each unit, all equipped with stamping machines and the latest devices of all sort. My guess would be that the machinery in the building cost clost to $100,000. The vegetable business around Vero and Fort Pierce has been badly damaged by reins, most people think 50% or wore. The chances are the heavy rains now may wean good spring crops. I continued over to Nocatee, where I spent the night. They have started picking Tangerines, and have 100 boxes in the coloring room. We estimate we can get two or three cars of oranges right away, and they started picking yesterday. Oranges have not grown as much in the past few weeks as some of us thought they would. The trees at Nocatee that did not have to be cut back have about all the fruit on then they can carry. The color is good. The texture and shape is satisfactory. Oranges and Tangerines will he gassed at Nocatee and trucked to Winter Haven where they will be color-added and packed. Yesterday morning, I attended a meeting of the Control Committee in Lakeland. The prorate on grapefruit is 600 cars, no culls or thirds to be shipped; no restrictions on oranges; Tangerines no thirds to be shipped. They are having some com-plaints about color added treatments. It seems that the treat¬ment that has so far shown up the best, and store uniform, is that of the Food Machinery Company. The dye put out by the Fruit Treating Company, which is the Brogden Company, of Orlando, has shown up splotches and too deep a color. It is the general opinion of those at Lakeland that the next ten days or two weeks would be a very good time to ship oranges. CHASE & CO. SANFORD. FLORIDA #3. Mr. S. 0. Chase. October 29, 19!6. The complaint of nearly everyone at the meeting was that they could not get oranges to pass the test. I did not hear such about Tangerines being shipped, but if other people's are passing the test like ours are there will soon be a lot of them. Affectionately, RC CC— Mr. J. C. Chase Mr. T. A.

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."

(Spessard Lindsey), 1892-1971 Lakeland (Fla.) Celery Description An original letter of correspondence between Randall Chase and a group of business partners from Chase & Company. A portion of the letter discusses the issue surrounding Florida citrus growers and coloring adding. The color-added process involved spraying oranges with edible food coloring to make the citrus products more appealing to consumers. Similar coloring was used in butter, ice cream, and candy. In 1936, L.P. Kirkland, mentioned in the letter, wrote an article for the Florida State Horticultural Society entitled, "The 'Color Added' Situation." According to the letter and the report Kirkland wrote, he and other Florida citrus growers supported coloring their oranges since consumers usually associated oranges with the color added stamp with a higher quality product. Other topics discussed in the letter include information collected during a citrus meeting in Lakeland regarding the Federal Marketing Agreement, and the disagreement between Florida citrus growers and Chase & Company Sales Manager, W.H. Mouser, on increasing the unit of sale of citrus products in New York City. 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 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.

Mr. S. 0. Chase Mr. J. C. Chase Mr. S. 0. Chase, Jr. Mr. W. A. Leffler. Gentlemen: Last night W. C. Hutchison and I attended a citrus meeting in Lakeland. H. C. Case of Fort Myers presided at the meeting. The purpose was the consideration of recommendations by a committee on the Federal Marketing Agreement. Askew, Chairman of the Committee, mane the report that the committee recommended that we drop any further consideration of a Federal Marketing Agreement, and immediately take up the question with the Florida Citrus Commission, with a view of arranging to pro rate citrus shipments. There was considerable discussion of a sort of desultory nature. Everyone seemed to agree that a Federal Marketing Agreement was out of the question, but just how to approach the matter of control here seemed a little difficult. A motion was finally made by Andrew Spada to the effect that the Associated Growers favor pro-rating, and are willing to pro-rate amongst themselves, and a committee be appointed to invite the Florida Citrus exchange, American Fruit Growers, Gentile, and others to join in such an arrangement. The legal question should be watched carefully. It will have to be in some organization under the Capper Volstead Act, which provides for grower control, otherwise we would be in trouble under the Sherman Anti-Trust Law. Judge Holland pointed out that phase of the situation, and stated that the American Fruit Growers had been indicted in California with some others account of a gentleman's agreement to reduce shipments of melons. No mention of price was made in connection with the melon movement, but Holland said that time and time again the courts had ruled that where shipments of supplies were restricted which affected prices that it was a violation of the anti-trust law. This is something that will have to be watched carefully in the celery situation in event we do not have a Federal Marketing Agreement. There should be some grower controlled organization that would provide the medium for the allotment or regula¬tion of shipments. It might be that the AAA has something to do with prosecuting shippers who are working under some gentlemen's agreement, rather than surrendering all their rights and working under the AAA. This would be all the more reason why we should watch carefully in the celery deal, in view of the fact that we have turned down the AAA machinery, if we substitute something ourselves. CHASE & CO. SANFORD, FLORIDA Kirkland reported that he was going to Washington to confer with Doctor Campbell and Secretary Wallace on the matter of color-added. The meeting passed a resolution authorizing Kirkland to make such assurances to the Federal Government as in his judgments were necessary in order that the industry may continue to use color-added. Kirkland explained the rather strict color shades that were being required by the Commission. Each inspector is furnished with a metal plaque with colors, to which the fruit must conform. The idea was expressed that if Florida had to eliminate color-added it would reduce the average price of Florida oranges in the markets from 50 to 75 cents per box. Mouser next took up the auction question. He explained at some length, in detail, in his usual manner how Mr. Schwalb, of the Di Giorgio auction, just happened to be in the state, and he called a meeting to consider: (1) Requesting all New York receivers to pro-rate supplies. (2) To have Florida offerings sole in only two rooms. (3) For the Florida shippers to request the unit of sale in New York City to be increases to 40, from the present unit of 20. I told him 1 was heartily in accord with the first two propo-sitions, but the third, of increasing the unit of sale, should be omitted. Mouser was very insistent that the resolutions not be changed, and it rather looked as if he had been asked, or requested to present them in such a form. The only other shipper present who opposed the increased unit was Andrew Spada. He made some very pertinent statements, and asked whether -drown & Seccomb had been consulted. Several remarks were made, mostly by Mouser, which indicated that Schwalb had made some uncomplimentary re¬marks about Brown & Seccomb. It was even stated that drown & Seccomb had not lived up to their agreement, and that most ,of the buyers wanted the 40 unit plan, but that a few, 3 or 4%, of the buying power wanted the 20 unit and this 3 or 4% depressed the market, really should not be in business at all, and that by increasing the unit of sale the prices would be raised at least 10%, maybe more. I told Mr. Mouser that I could not follow the reasoning: of his statements, that all commodities were being sole in smaller units, that it was the general trend of the times, and 1 could not understand how it would increase prices for the citrus industry to adopt the opposite policy. When a vote was taken I requested that I be recorded as not voting. Waverly did the same thing. I am not sure whether Spada did the same thing or not, but there were no opposing votes. Mouser was smooth CHASE & CO. SANFORD. FLORIDA enough to include the two desirable features with the one to increase the unit of sale, and would not handle them separately. I asked that we go on record, as favoring selling first, or before California, during the season when we are heaviest. Mouser replied that that would be to the disadvantage of Florida, as it would split the buying power, and it was much best to let California sell first when they had to compete with deciduous fruits, and after the California sale Florida would receive the full strength of the market. That reasoning also seemed a little unusual. Yours very truly, RC (?) of Florida Selling in 4 rooms as (?) for 10 hrs not (?) the (?) leave (?) in different room or (?) Room 97.

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.

Chase, Jr. Gentlemen Saturday Monsalvatee and I left Sanford and motored to Gainesville, where we had a conference with Mr. Harold Mowry and Doctor Camp. Both of these gentlemen have been carrying on fertilizer experiments. Mr. Mowry curried on a number of experiments until about six months ago, when his work was taken over by Doctor Camp. We spent about two hours with them Saturday afternoon, discussing the various problems that are confronting; the citrus sacs vegetable growers with re-spect to fertilizers. It is the general opinion that the excessive dry weather in the past two years has not made available a great deal of the organic fertilizer, furthermore that the dry, hot, weather his[sic] killed a good deal of the bacteria in the soil, which assists in making available the organic material. When the organic material decreases, or disappears the soils are apt to become acid. The problem now is to sweeten the soils so as to make a favorable condition for the development of bacteria, which will in turn release some of the organic material that has accumulated over several years. Applications of zinc appear to be very conductive to the development of bacteria, thereby releasing fertilizer in the soil and bettering the condition of the pint or tree. They have experimented on trees with doses from l/4#, up to 20# per tree. They have gotten just as good results from the l# applications as they did with anything above that. In one instance where they put an excessive application on a nursery tree, followed by a heavy rain, they are of the opinion that a little burning took place; however with that one exception they have detected no detrimental results from an over-dose of zinc sulfate.. They have found that chicken manure is especially beneficial to soils that may be acid, or where bacteria is lacking. The chicken compost contains a considerable quantity of zinc. There are some large poultry operators near Callahan, Florida, where chicken compost can be obtained in car lots. Mr. Mowry promised to send me the names of some of the places it could be obtained. Another way of sweetening the soil, and helping reestablish the bacteria is a moderate application of lime. These gentlemen did not suggest that, but they said they could see no harm in it, providing the dose was moderate and not excessive. On citrus trees of a bearing age they suggest 4 to 6 pounds. For a complete fertilizer on Tung trees they have noted the beet results from a 4-8-5 mixture, one-half of the Ammonia to us from organics such as cotton seed Meal, Castor Pomace, Tankage, etc. The other half of the Ammonia to be derived from Nitrate of Soda, or possibly a little. Sulphate of Ammonia; the Potash to come from either Muriate or Sulphate, they have not been able to detect any difference in these potashes. They made the suggestion that tobacco stems might be a very good ingredient to put into the mixture. Just before dark they took out to the experimental farm, where they had numerous check rows of Satsumas and Tung trees some of which had been treated with zinc and other not treated. Without exception the zinc treated trees were far superior to the non-treated. After supper from Gainesville I took Monsalvatge to Lake City, where he spent the night with his sister. I continued on to Jacksonville in order to see Mr. Rhodes the first thing Sunday morning. I met Mr. Rhodes in his office about nine o'clock, and spend over and a half with him, giving him the data about the price of citrus and vegetable containers, and their effect on the farmers and the industries in general. Mr. Rhodes requested that we ask the American Fruit Growers, Sanford-Oviedo Truck Grower, Manatee Truck Growers, and perhaps one or two on the east coast to wire him at Washington, Harrington Hotel, authorizing him to represent their interests at the meeting in Washington, which is to start today. I attended to this yesterday, end everyone I have requested to said they would wire Mr. Rhodes accordingly. Some of the principal points he intended to make are: (1) That high prices of crate materials will curtail the consumption of creates, and thereby increase unemployment in the crate mill territory. (2) It will tend to increase the shipments of bulk fruit and vegetables, thereby creating disorderly marketing, and defeating the purposes of the various marketing agreement is pro¬mulgated under the AAA. (3) Under the NRA, end various other recovery act every single item of expense that constitutes the cost of producing and marketing has been increased, without a single assurance of increased prices for the products, and that the greatest increase of all these items was crate material, which in some instances has doubled in price. He intends to call attention to the fact that California is supposed to have had an increase of approximately 14% in the cost of their citrus boxes. He expects to state that the Florida industries would not have objected to a reasonable increase, but they do feel that 100% is entirely out of reason. (4) He expects to call attention to the fact that under the, AAA and various marketing agreements as set forth they expect to restore the purchasing power of agriculture to the basis it was in the period 1903 to 1914, but that the tremendous increase in costs makes that impossible, even though prices of agricultural products in some instances have advanced a little. We have given them comparative prices on citrus for 1932 thru December wl, with those of 1933 thru December 31. According to the Clearing House the market price for that period in 1932 was: Oranges $2.85 Grapefruit 2.80 Tangerines 2.75 For that perios[sic] in 1933: Oranges $ 2.38 Grapefruit 2.83 Tangerines 2.37. The slight increase in the market price on grapefruit does not begin to offset the increase in the cost of the crate material alone. Mr. Rhodes seemed very much pleased that he had been requested to go, and I think will do his very best to prevent the matter at the hearing. He had a great deal of data that he was taking with him, and intended to work up sort of a brief to present at the hearing. After leaving Mr. Rhodes office I went out and spent several hours at the Refrigerated Steamship Line's new precooling plant at the Municipal Dock & Terminals. Mr. J. W. Lees, General Manager, took us all over the place. I also met Mr. T. J. Davis, Superintendent of Terminal Operations for the United Fruit Company, who came in on the SS “ATENAS” from New York arriving Sunday morning. He was making a special trip down to inspect the Jacksonville plant and the various operations. I also met a Mr. McKinnon, who is their Refrigeration Engineer. He has been with the United Fruit Company for ten or twelve years, and has redesigned some of their cooling systems for steamers to better refrigerate the cargo. I met a Mr. Spitzer, who is Superintendent of the Stevedores. Mr. Williams, Vice President of the York Manufacturing Company was there, whom we also met. While I was at the plant Sunday warning they turned on the cool air for the first time. They undoubtedly have the most up to date cooling system that can be had. They have the reversible type, so the air is first blown in from the bottom and out thru the top, them in from the top and out thru the bottom. This gives a very thoro[sic] cooling job. They have automatic control of the humidity, so there will not be any danger of drying out the fruit thru the precooling operations, nor after the fruit is held in storage for any length of time. They have canopies with which the fruit will be covered end enclosed when it moves from the precooling rooms into the ship. About thirty-six hours before the ship gets into Jacksonville they start the refrigerating machinery, and reduce the temperature of the, storage space to approximately 36 degrees. They have experimented on the various types conveyors, and the many different methods and systems of handling the fruit so it can be done quickly; and the least possible chance of injury to the package or fruit itself. Their Research Department in New York is now investigating citrus fruit, and will no doubt develop some very useful and valuable information. They expect to have some statements to make about Brogdexing in the near future. Mr. Lees said that his Company would precool the fruit for 10 cents per box, and hold it for 10 days before shipping out. By the payment of another 10 cents per box they would hold it for 15 or 20 days more. I asked him how the storage space would be allotted, and he replied that the first come was first served. If we have any fruit that has to be moved on account of deterioration we better get it off quick and send it to the Refrigerated precooler as soon as they are ready to receive it, then feed it out gradually as the market can take it. Mr. Lees, Mr. McKinnon, end Mr. Williams expect to make a trip to Sanford Tuesday to look into the possibility of precooling and handling celery. They are very anxious to see our Beardall plant. It has been suggested that the Refrigerated put in a celery precooling unit nom whet similar to ours, so as the celery is trucked to Jacksonville it can be put into the precooling unit and from there direct into the hold of a ship, under low temperature and high humidity. Celery handled in this way should carry thru in perfect shape. Mr. Lees took lea over the steamer that had just come in. The whole ship was spotlessly clean, even down in the hold where the fruit is stores. We also went by the Clyde pier, and saw their loading and precooling operations. The York people furnished the refrigeration machinery to the Clyde, however account of lack of room and storage facilities I do not believe they are physically equipped to do as good a precooling job as the Refrigerated . The Clyde Line loads the fruit to be precooled onto insulated barges. They tow these alongside of the pier there the refrigerating machinery is installed, and cold air is blown into the barges. They inject the air in underneath the floor, and also take it out underneath the floor. This could seem to me to leave hot air on the top of the barges, and the fruit at top of the barge would be precooled only thru equalization of the temperature, rather than by forcing the cold air over. The Clyde Line are handling tie Loading and unloading operations in a very fine manner. Luring the past several years when they have been handling fruit they have systematized the loading operations, which are done quietly had with a minimum of damage to the box or the fruit. They handle it very, very, carefully indeed, and deserve a great deal of credit for developing, such a careful way of handling it. One thing that impressed Me was that when the Clyde Line has fruit that is not precooled they stack it in the ships with space between, so that air can circulate. Mr. Lees told me that When the Refrigerating line had fruit that were not precooled they stacked it just as close as when it was precooled. The refrigeration stetted, of course, as soon as each hatch was loaded. The engineer told me that on the steamer that was there Sunday, the SS “ATENAS”, non-precooled fruit was reduced to a temperature of about 48 degrees by the time it reached New York. Briefly my impressions of the Clyde and Refrigerated plants are that the Clyde Line is doing everything they possibly can with the facilities at their command to handle the fruit properly. They can take care of truck deliveries pretty well, also deliveries from the rider boat, but their track facilities are quite Limited, and if the railroads should reduce the rate on fruit to Jacksonville for water transportation the Clyde Line might have difficulty in handling a volume of fruit by rail; also that the precooling done by the Clyde Line was not as good as the precooling by the Refrigerated. The Refrigerate is pre pared to handle fruit either by the rivers, by truck, or by rail. They could probably handle the entire output by any one of the above three methods. Yours very truly, RC:HMR.

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."

Citrus fruit industry--Florida Agriculture--Florida Chase and Company (Sanford, Fla.) Citrus--Florida Description In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford purchased 12,547.15 square acres of land known as the Sanford Grant.

The acreage included an experiment station called Belair Grove, located just three miles southwest of the city and named after Sanford. By 1889, Sanford extended his land purchase to 145 acres and contained mainly orange and lemon trees. In Belair alone, Sanford introduced over 140 varieties of citrus plants. All were tested to determine if Florida citrus growers could introduce new varieties into the growing citrus market. Sanford also grew exotic plants acquired from Central and South America, many of which survived the 1886 freeze. Sanford mainly used Belair as his own experiment station, but ultimately the findings and reports would be used by other citrus growers throughout Florida. Eventually, following Sanford's death in 1891, his wife, Gertrude Sanford, sold Belair to Sydney and Joshua Chase.

In 1894 and 1895, Central Florida was hit by several freezes and most of the citrus crop was destroyed. In many cases, frozen oranges fell off the trees because the weakened branches could not support the heavier fruit. Chase & Company did not grow citrus crops again until 1904 when Joshua came back from an extended stay in California.

(Henry Shelton), 1823-1891 Citrus fruit industry--Florida Agriculture--Florida Freezes (Meteorology)--Florida Description Belair Grove after the Great Freeze of 1885-1886. Henry Sanford made his last trip to Belair Grove during the winter of 1890-1891. Most of Sanford's visit was spent in Charles Armory's vacation home because of his poor health. This photograph and several others were taken of Sanford and his family to commemorate his last visit to Belair Grove. Sanford along with his wife and daughter left Florida in mid-May. Just days later Sanford died on May 21, 1891, in Healing Springs, Virginia. In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford purchased 12,547.15 square acres of land, known as the Sanford Grant. The acreage included an experiment station called Belair Grove, located just three miles southwest of the city named after Sanford. By 1889, Sanford extended his land purchase to 145 acres and contained mainly orange and lemon trees. In Belair alone, Sanford introduced over 140 varieties of citrus plants. All were tested to determine if Florida citrus growers could introduce new varieties into the growing citrus market. Sanford also grew exotic plants acquired from Central and South America, many of which survived the 1886 freeze. Sanford mainly used Belair as his own experiment station, but ultimately the findings and reports would be used by other citrus growers throughout Florida. Eventually, following Sanford's death in 1891, his wife, Gertrude Sanford, handed over the operations of Belair to Sydney and Joshua Chase.

Chase and Company (Sanford, Fla.) Camellias Citrus fruit industry--Florida Agriculture--Florida Description Randall Chase, son of Sydney Chase, examining a camellia bush at Belair Grove. In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford purchased 23 square acres of land known as the Sanford Grant. The acreage included an experiment station called Belair located just three miles southwest of the city named after Sanford. By 1889, Sanford extended his land purchase to 145 acres and contained mainly orange and lemon trees. In Belair alone, Sanford introduced over 140 varieties of citrus plants. All were tested to determine if Florida citrus growers could introduce new varieties into the growing citrus market. Sanford also grew exotic plants acquired from Central and South America, many of which survived the 1886 freeze, including the camellia bushes. Sanford mainly used Belair as his own experiment station, but ultimately the findings and reports would be used by other citrus growers throughout Florida. Eventually, Sanford handed over the operations of Belair to Sydney and Joshua Chase. In 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. When Sydney Chase died in 1941, the family-operated company was handed down to his sons, Sydney Chase, Jr., Randall Chase, and Franklin Chase.

Citrus fruit industry--Florida Agriculture--Florida Chase and Company (Sanford, Fla.) Citrus--Florida Description In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford purchased 12,547.15 square acres of land known as the Sanford Grant. The acreage included an experiment station called Belair Grove, located just three miles southwest of the city and named after Sanford. By 1889, Sanford extended his land purchase to 145 acres and contained mainly orange and lemon trees. In Belair alone, Sanford introduced over 140 varieties of citrus plants. All were tested to determine if Florida citrus growers could introduce new varieties into the growing citrus market. Sanford also grew exotic plants acquired from Central and South America, many of which survived the 1886 freeze. Sanford mainly used Belair as his own experiment station, but ultimately the findings and reports would be used by other citrus growers throughout Florida. Eventually, following Sanford's death in 1891, his wife, Gertrude Sanford, sold Belair to Sydney and Joshua Chase.

The acreage included an experiment station called Belair Grove, located just three miles southwest of the city named after Sanford.

Eventually, following Sanford's death in 1891, his wife, Gertrude Sanford, sold Belair to Sydney and Joshua Chase. In 1894 and 1895, Central Florida was hit by several freezes and most of the citrus crop was destroyed. In many cases, frozen oranges fell off the trees because the weakened branches could not support the heavier fruit. Chase & Company did not grow citrus crops again until 1904 when Joshua came back from an extended stay in California. Creator Ensminger Bros.

He made his last trip to Belair Grove during the winter of 1890-1891. Most of Sanford's visit was spent in Charles Armory's vacation home because of his poor health. This photograph and several others were taken of Sanford and his family to commemorate his last visit to Belair Grove. Sanford, along with his wife and daughter, left Florida in mid-May. Just days later, Sanford died on May 21, 1891, in Healing Springs, Virginia. Gertrude sold the property to the Chase Brothers shortly after her husband's death.

Citrus--Florida Citrus fruit industry--Florida 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.

Citrus fruit industry--Florida Agriculture--Florida Description An original letter of correspondence written by Sydney Chase, Jr. to other Chase & Company business partners and family members. The letter summarizes a meeting Sydney, Jr. attended relating to the marketing and selling of citrus products throughout the United States. The marketing strategies described throughout the meeting pertained not only to the state of Florida, but to other farmers and growers throughout the nation. Techniques included the overseeing of shipments to different markets by a government inspector and the use of an innovative teletype machine. Between the years of 1932 and 1933, growers in the Florida citrus industry faced controversy in attempting to regulate the shipment and selling of its products. 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.

CARLOT DI Si TRIBUTOR S C I T RUS FRUITS AND VEGETABLES JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA_ April 8th 1924. Views to be presented by Chase Company at the Orlando citrus growers' meeting of April 9th. First:- The low market conditions this season have been brought about by a variety of causes. There has been excess citrus production in Florida and California, and there has also been excess production of apples and an kinds of canned and dried fruits. Consequently, the Florida crop has been called upon to compete not only with its own excess production but the excess and overproduction on all other fruit s both green, dried and canned. The opening of the season was handicapped by a very heavy grape crop, mostly from California, whichhad a very material effect on lessening the demand for early grapefruit. PRE-COLORING: Pre-color ing if proper ly handled is an advantage and not a disadvantage to the Florida citrus industry. If the color is accelerated by ethylene gas, which is the process in vogue in California, the color of the peel is changed from an objectionable green to the color of maturity, and if proper judg¬ment has been used in the quality, and also if the standard of maturity established by the State and Government is observed, it helps prolong the marketing season for Florida grapefruit. If improperly handled, it i S undoubtedly a detriment. This is a matter that should be controlled by a more rigid enforcement of the law and not only by the authorities but by public opinion in each locality. CONTROL: In event 75% or more of the estimated crop is in the hands of one agency, it could be mishandled so that the results would be no better if as good as they have been this season. If the distribution is in the hands of people who are ignorant of National merchandising or fail to properly advertise the product in the markets and sell it to the consumer or attempt to place too high a value on the goods, it would interfere with the proper consumptive demand and the results would be poor. The control of the crop should mean that those who have charge of the distribution would be in authority to, accelerate, retard or completely stop the shipment of any variety where the prospect of results do not hold out the valid hope of at least a return to the grower which w ill equal the cost of production. With the coming crop as large if not larger than the one that has just gone into market, it will be absolutely necessary to pay stricter attention to the grading and packing of every Sunniland TRADEMARK 8.124p. It may be found that through improper cultural methods or some unforeseen disaster a crop is of poor quality or of undesirable sizes. It may be found that 75% of the crop is of good quality and sizes, with 25% of quality and sizes that should not go into the markets and should be left in the groves. Who is to determine this question? The writer believes that the Florida growers should invite the cooperation of the U.S. Department of Agriculture and if all agree to abide by the grading rules, this matter can be determined in that way. CITRUS SIGN-UP-DAY: There is talk of making Thursday, :lay, 1st as Florida Citrus Sign-Up-Day, in an effort to combine 75% of the crop. who is to determine when this volume of busi¬ness has been signed up and who is to decide what is to be done with it when it is under contract or agreement? ,ho is going to be drafted into the service of the growers, to be responsible to them for a satisfactory outcome on the coming crop? How many of you today can agree on three, five or ten men qualified by experience in the business of marketing and istributing 75% or 40,000 carloads of citrus fruit?

Orlando (Fla.) Museums--Florida Description According to its website, "The Historical Museum first opened in 1942 in the 1892 red brick Orange County Courthouse at the corner of Central and Magnolia, as a pioneer kitchen exhibit for the Central Florida Centennial Celebration. The popular exhibit remained open; and through public donations of historical objects, large and small, books, papers, and photographs, it grew to fill rooms in the old Courthouse. The collections went into storage from 1957 until 1963, while the county demolished the 1892 Courthouse and built an addition to the 1927 Courthouse on the site of the old building. The museum reopened in the Courthouse Annex in 1963, under the auspices of Orange County Historical Commission, a new county department established by the County Commissioners in 1957 to ensure fiscal and legal stability. By 1970 , the county government needed the space in the annex, so the museum collection was moved again, to the second floor of the Christ Building, a few doors away on Central Boulevard . . .The Orange County Historical Society, Inc., organized in 1971 to raise money for a permanent museum building, which opened in Loch Haven Park in 1976. In 2000, the Historical Museum moved again, back to where it had started at Central Boulevard and Magnolia Avenue. The vacated 1927 Courthouse was restored to become the Orange County Regional History Center, and the Orange County Historical Society became the Historical Society of Central Florida, Inc., operating the History Center in partnership with the Orange County Board of County Commissioners. The current Orange County Regional History Center showcases the vast collections of the Historical Society of Central Florida, Inc. The museum features three floors of permanent exhibitions and also presents nationally important limited-run exhibitions. In 2006, the museum was accepted as an Affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution and was accredited by the American Association of Museums, the highest honor a museum can receive."

Artifacts and exhibits demonstrate the local history of Native Americans, early forts and settlements, steamships and railroads, Seminole County agriculture and industry, nineteenth and twentieth century art, and the Old Folks Home. Also known as the Seminole County Home, the Old Folks Home was constructed in 1926 to house people who were homeless or needed living assistance. In 1965, the building was converted into offices for the County Agricultural and the Home Demonstration Agent and was called the Agricultural Center. In November of 1980, a new agricultural building was completed and the offices were vacated. In 1982, the County Commission approved the conversion of the Old Folks Home into a historical museum, which opened in November of 1983. The building was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places on June 10, 1999.

Title Florida Citrus Exchange Collection Alternative Title FEC Collection Subject Florida Citrus Exchange Citrus fruit industry--Florida Chase and Company (Sanford, Fla.) 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.

Title Letter from Joshua Chase to Sydney Chase (October 19, 1934) Alternative Title Chase Correspondence (October 19, 1934) Subject Citrus fruit industry--Florida Chase, Joshua Coffin, 1858-1948 Citrus fruit industry--California Chase and Company (Sanford, Fla.) Agriculture--Florida Lakeland (Fla). Orange industry--Florida Orange industry--California--History New Deal, 1933-1939--Florida Florida Citrus Exchange Chase, Sydney Octavius, 1860-1941 Description An original letter of correspondence written by Joshua Chase to his father and Chase & Company business partner Sydney Chase. The letter discusses a meeting Joshua attended in Lakeland about the specifics on the proposed Federal Marketing Agreement on citrus and nationally standardized shipping rates. Issues discussed in the meeting included freight rates of citrus products, New Deal policies, and accurate reporting. Chase & Company was established by the brothers 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. The Florida Citrus Exchange was founded by a group of growers on June 21, 1909 to help improve production of citrus in the state. Members shared facilities and helped establish operation and shipping standards. Both Sydney and Joshua Chase were hesitant to join the Exchange because they did not want to jeopardize the business they had successfully managed. Chase & Company eventually became a part of the Exchange, but backed out three years later.

SANFORD, FLORIDAOctober 19, 1934Mr . O. Chase P. Asheville North Carolina Dear Dad: Attended the meeting in Lakeland yester afternoon composed of the 96 growers and shippers who united last August in fighting the proposed newAgreement . There were a few other growers of the Lakeland territory present, also representatives of the Atlantic Commission Company, and two new Grower-shippers, making a total of 93 now instead of 96. L. V. Kirkland was elected as chairman of the mmeeting and stated briefly the reason for the meeting, stressing particularly the point that in is opinicn an erffort as being made by Washington and urged by interests in California more or less at the request f a certain group in Florida to force -the Florida citrus industry into national prorating. r. irk and pointed out that national prorating was unsuited to Florida, because California enjoyed a freight rote which allowed them to put their fruit into the eat at $1.17 a box, whereas Florida could not go west of the Mississippi River due to the very high freight rate. He also pointed out that California would want to prorate their Naval crop against or entire crop of oranges, including Valencias, and in this wor allow them a very clear and unobstricted cncampetitive market for their Valencias. it was later brought out in the meeting that Florida freight rate to Seattle and spokane, Washington, and Portland, Oregon .1d surrounding territory amounted to $1.91 a box, including refrigeration, nd that California, if they wanted to, could place their oranges in Tampa, Florida by rail at 1.17 a box. C. Chaser. Kirkland then asked Judge Holland to review the whole matter of the fight against the Agreement which Washington proposed last August, and the results that had been obtained by the 96 grower-shippers who had fought the matter together, as a unit, and he Urged that they all continue to • meet the matter in a united effort, as he believed that was the only way to secure recognition in Washington to such an extent that they would listen and give the Florida citrus industry a representative and fair group of grower Control Committee members, which Washington had agreed to do when they met in that city in September, and which Washington has not done, as evidenced by the group of names just received from Washington, and which I gave you as a list in my letter of two days ago. Judge Holland reviewed the matter, begin-ning with last June up through his last visit to Washington in September. He emphasized the fact that Washington was very much astounded at the united front and effort made by the 96 growers, and that they had not considered this possible before last August. He pointed out that this united action had secured practically every concession that had been asked for, and that the attitude of the Depart¬ment of Agriculture was entirely different after August, due to the strength shown by the majority of the shippers in the state, representing a decided majority of the fruit. He also stated that it was his personal opinion that the naming of the Grower Control Committee as sent out from Washington was a last effort to try to bluff the industry into national prorating and ram down the throats of the majority what California would like to see and the old Central Committee clique would like to have. Mr. S. O. Chase page #3 e said he felt reasonably sure that if united effort was continued as in the past we would be able to secure a Grower Control Committee that would be fairly selected and in line with what Washington had agreed to d in selecting the Grower Committee. Aurin was asked to say a few words. e brought out tee Tampa Tribune and read part of a statement issued by Commander, wherein Commander said he hoped the independent shippers and buyers would consider for once the growers of the at.. to of Florida. Dr. Aurin said that he was an hundred per cent in accord with Commander in regard to that part of hi; statement, ands that he sincerely hoped that all off the shippers present and in the state would consider the poor growers of the state and see that they would not get the Growers Control Committee as handed down by Washington, but one that would be fair to the growers of the state; that it Was high time that the continued effort of a certain group to coerce growers into the exchange be stopped and that the growers be allowed to ship and sell their fruit to those shippers which they themselves might choose. Dr. Aurin Said that, in looking over the group of growers appointed to the Committee by Washington, that he could not believe that the leopard had changed its spots any more than if someone told him that Hitler was a friend of the Jews. Howey was called on to soy a few words, which ho did, and a great deal of it amounted to politicings; he tactfully said that he felt that Some of the good Democrats present would be making good Republicans by the time the present administra¬tion got through trying to run their business for them by groups of people who knew nothing about it. He was asked the question as to what he thought the lose would be if Florida was forced into national prorating. Howey very carefully avoided giving his own opinion, but did say !hat he had heard the loss would be from several different sources, which amounted to anywhere from $250,000 annually to a Mr. S. O. Chase Page #4 1,500,000 annually. Fe also stated that he had been informed sten in Washington by good authorities that some businessess which Washington was trying to run by would-be experts who knew nothing about the businesses or any business were suffering a loss in some- instances as high as 17,000,000 a year. We next heard from Jeff Sligh, who was very brief and said that he did not approve of r. Howey politicing in such meetings. This was all good. natured. -.nigh did bring out something in regard to what Florida's less would be if they participated in national prorating for several years. Pe said the real loss would amount to about 40,000,000, or the citrus industry in Florida. This brought down some real applause, and even Howey nodded his agree¬ment. Several other growers and shippers spoke briefly, one or two stressing the difference of freight rates from California and Florida. judge Holland drew up a motion protesting the appointment of the Grower Committee and alternates selected by Washington, which was unanimously approved. 7. J. Howey next moved that the chair appoint a committee to form an organization and in-corporate same including the group present and as many more as they could secure for united action in ll such matters. The judge had already prepared a motion which was substituted for Howey's, and,we believe, a very good one. A fully detailed report as to the motions and Committee appointed, and the whole meeting will undoubtedly follow from the Clearing House within the next day or two. Mr. S. c, Chase Page #5 The press was present and were told in no unmistakable words that the paper which would not publish all of what was said at the meeting would never be allowed at a meeting again, and that it would be made known why. It was stated that in the past it has been very noticeable that some of the papers in the state published very damaging :and unfair articles Pertaining to the growers and shippers meetings in the past by not giving all of the information, and by omitting parts and misconstruing many facts. This was directed, I believe, primarily at the Orlando Sentinel. Their reorter as present, and certainly got red around the ears when he received these instructions. The reporter for the Lakeland paper, which has been so active in the past in getting fair and correct informa¬tion, was present, and I noticed he remained after the meeting to get some of the details he was unable to catch and record as the meeting progressed. I did not see the Sentinel reporter doing this, and 1 will be interested to set: how the two papers compare. Affectionately yours, SOCjr / b Copy: Mr. J. C.

The track started in Orlando-Winter Park area and entered Seminole County near Oviedo. The Orlando-Winter Park Railroad officially opened on January 2, 1889. Shortly after the inaugural opening of the railroad, Francis B. Knowles became president of the Orlando-Winter Park Railroad Company. The original track spanned six miles from Orlando to Winter Park. The Dinky Line made eight round-trips per day and charged fifteen cents a ride. Students from Rollins College nicknamed the railroad the Dinky Line. By 1891, the Dinky Line extended to Oviedo. All of the tracks were removed by 1969 due to the popularity of the automobile.

The railroad opened in 1884 and reached Sanford by 1886. William Van Fleet was the railroad's first president. In 1883, the railroad caught the attention of Henry Plant, a prominent entrepreneur in the state, during a track construction project between Tampa and Kissimmee. He offered the Jacksonville, Tampa, and Key West Railroad all of the funds needed to construct the stretch of railroad. In return, it was agreed that Plant would own all rights to the route. The railroad began in Jacksonville and ran through Palatka and DeLand Junction. The stretch of railroad running through Central Florida ran from downtown Sanford east to the port of Sanford where it then turned north and crossed the St. Johns River.

Title Sanford and Everglades Railroad Alternative Title Celery Belt Line Subject Railroads--Florida Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Company Sanford (Fla.) Description List of latitude and longitude coordinates for the Sanford and Everglades Railroad.The creation of a railroad through Sanford began when a group of celery growers expressed interest in extending railroad tracks to their farmlands. When the Atlantic Coast Line ignored the requests, a group of prominent local growers provided the funds and began construction of the Sanford and Everglades Railroad. With the help of A.T. Rossiter, J.N. Whitner, A.P. Connelly, S.O. Chase, and F.P. Forester, the railroad was built and opened in 1910. The railroad broke off from the Atlantic Coast Line near 15th Street in Sanford and ran east until Beardall. It then turned south and ran until Pine Way where it turns west and reconnects to the Atlantic Coast Line railroad. By 1913, the Atlantic Coast Line purchased the property and rights to the Sanford and Everglades Railroad. The railroad was nicknamed the Celery Belt Line.

Series descriptions are based on special topics, the majority of which students focused their metadata entries around. 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 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.

The church itself was founded in 1867 at another location off of Mellonville Avenue. In 1880, the church purchased land at the current location from the Florida Land and Colonization Company, which was operated by General Henry Shelton Sanford. After constructing several temporary structures, the church assigned African American architect Prince Spears to design the current red brick building. Spears created a building with a late gothic revival architectural style. Construction started in 1910 and ended in 1913. Reverend William H. Brown oversaw the project, but died prior to the building's completion. St. James AME Church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.

Title Sanford Collection 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 PICO Hotel, located at 209 North Oak Avenue in Sanford, Florida, was built in 1887 for Henry Bradley Plant, President of the Plant Investment Company (PICO). The onion-shaped dome located on the southwest corner of the roof resembled a Turkish minaret. The dome was destroyed by a severe thunderstorm in the 1950s and was never replaced. The PICO Hotel served as the terminal hotel for a railroad and two steamship lines owned by Henry Plant. President Calvin Coolidge spent the night at the PICO Hotel during his visit to Sanford.

Title First National Bank No. 1 Alternative Title First National Bank No. 1 Subject Banks and banking--Florida Rollins College (Winter Park, Fla.) Sanford (Fla.) Description View of the First National Bank No. 1, located at 101 West First Street in Sanford, Florida. The building was originally constructed in 1883 by Lyman Bank and had a brick facade. In 1887, the bank switched hands and became the First National Bank. Building renovations took place the same year, which included adding a marble facade, moving the front entrance to the corner of the building, and placing a clock at the front of the building which would become the town clock located in Magnolia Square. First National Bank No. 1 is the oldest brick building in Sanford's downtown commercial district. The organizational meetings to create Rollins College were held in this building in 1885. At the time that this photograph was taken in 2010, the building was being occupied by the Corner Cafe.

Title Sanford Collection 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.

Title First National Bank No. 2 Alternative Title First National Bank No. 2 Subject Banks and banking--Florida Buildings--Florida Sanford (Fla.) Description Former First National Bank No. 2 , located at 101 East First Street in Sanford, Florida. Also known as Sanford's first skyscraper, the building was designed by Mowbray & Uffinger of New York. Construction began in 1922 using steel, limestone, brick, and tile. A major reason why masonry and steel was used in the construction of the building was in response to a fire that occurred in Sanford in 1887. Originating from a bakery in downtown, many of the surrounding buildings were destroyed because they were constructed out of wood. After the fire, commercial buildings were constructed either with bricks or masonry. The First National Bank remained in the building until 1929. The building has served as a home for several banks since 1938.

Title Sanford Collection 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.
