Flast<br /> Dear Sir<br /> <br /> I received your letter with draft of $1500 on Maj Teasdale which I will not want to use at percent - 8 I was disappointed in getting the cotton at or near Wacahoota persons in that section have put is up to 45 cts I have about 15 Bales seed Cotton and 12 gined at Home.

On his other side is his second wife Margaret Jane Leitner McGahagin 1838-1896. His brother William Emmit McGahagin and his brother’s wife Sarah Eliza McCormick McGahagin are buried about fifteen feet south of J.L. McGahagin's tombstone.<br /> Joshua L. McGahagin was a farmer a saw-mill owner and owned real estate. He owned property in Brazil as well as in this country. He owned a sawmill on Lake Weir. He would barge logs across the lake take them by ox cart to the Ocklawaha River where they were barged to Jacksonville. He was a Captain in the Confederate Army.<br /> <br /> "Longswamp was the name applied to a large area which extended from the site of the present Belleview south and southwestward to the Withlacoochee River. A post office under Joshua L. McGahagin was established for this region on August 29 1846. Frequently the office was in the home of the postmaster and mail was carried by rider once each week."<br /> <br /> "In August of 1850 panic followed after finding an Indian camp nearby on the Withlacoochee. As all Indians were supposedly within a reservation in the Everglades wild rumors were circulated. On the McGahagin plantation log barricades were hurriedly erected and settlers from isolated homes rushed here for protection. But the alarm was unjustified. An intensive search disclosed only eleven Indians. These Indians were soon deported back to the Everglades."<br /> <br /> These excerpts were taken from a history of Marion County called "Ocali Country Kingdom of the Sun" by Eloise Robinson Mrs. Roy V. Ott and Louis Hickman Chazal.<br /> <br /> One day several years after the Civil War a man who had served under Joshua Lucas MaGahagin's C.S.A. command entered the home of his eldest son William "Billy" Emmit. He saw his father's framed photograph over the mantel and exclaimed "Why that's the Ole Warhorse!"<br /> <br /> Joshua left for South America in 1868 taking one of his daughters Lula with him. He was back in Marion County in 1870 as he was listed in the Census that year.<br /> <br /> After surviving the Civil War and a trip to Brazil spending hours on horseback Joshua died when he was thrown from a horse. n.p. unknown

August 1855. . Manuscript map in watercolour and ink on linen 41 x 54 cm framed. Some spotting.<br /> Manuscript plan on linen of the siege of Sebastopol: a fine and unusual map drawn by Sergeant Neubourg according to the instructions of Captain Koch of the French First Foreign Infantry Regiment. It shows the location of the allied troops on the banks of the Chernaya River near the city of Sebastopol which was besieged by the allies from September 1854 until the end of August 1855. The capture of the Redan Redoubt one of two key strong-points in the defences of Sebastopol by French troops including the Legion prompted the Russian evacuation and surrender of the city in August 1855 after an eleven month siege. This was the final episode in the Crimean War which ended officially in February 1856. Despite being heavily involved in the fighting more legionnaires succumbed to the deprivations of camp life notably the bitter cold than died in battle.<br /> August, 1855. unknown

[Cuba] [Spanish-American War] Leach & Patterson
Mounted Albumen Print of an American Warship in Havana Harbor Published as part of the “Recuerdo de Cuba†Series
Havana: R. Testar 1890. Albumen photograph on cardstock mount image measuring 7 1/4 x 4 1/2 inches on 8 3/4 x 5 1/2 inch mount. A view of an American warship in Havana harbor likely taken prior to the outbreak of hostilities between the United States and Spain in early 1898. The photographers Leach and Patterson of Calle San Rafael published several views of Cuba at this time mostly of bucolic scenes around Havana and its environs. The American cruiser is similar in design to the U.S.S. Maine with slight differences - two smokestacks instead of three. An excellent example with minor wear to mount and fine image. R. Testar unknown

[Cuba]. [Spanish-American War]. McMahon, John E
Aviso. Orden General No. 25. Cuartel General del Departamento de Puerto-Principe.Enero 11 de 1899 caption title
Puerto-Principe Cuba: Imp. el Progreso-Soledad January 11 1899. Good. Broadside 11.75 x 8.25 inches. Old folds minor chip at top left corner uniformly tanned and somewhat tender. An unrecorded general order issued in Spanish by the American "Jefe de Estado Mayor" Chief of Staff John E. McMahon during the military occupation of Cuba in the Spanish-American War. The order stipulates that a paragraph in a previous order prohibiting the auction of mortgaged property in the province of Puerto-Principe until January 1 1900 is hereby repealed and any further instructions on this matter will come from the Army's General Headquarters in Havana. McMahon issued several general orders during the American Army's occupation of Cuba and all appear to be rare. An interesting artifact from America's expansionist period with no other copies in OCLC auction history or the trade. Imp. el Progreso-Soledad, January 11 unknown

[Cuban History - World War I – Red Cross Society] Unknown Photographer
Photograph of Cuban Red Cross Volunteers at a Benefit Performance for Cuba’s War Effort
Havana Cuba 1917. Excellent. The Cuban Red Cross Society was formed in 1909 by Dr. Diego Tamayo y Figueredo. In 1917 when this photograph was taken it was headed by Madame Mariana Seva de Menocal wife of then-President Mario GarcÃa Menocal who was in office 1913–1921. Cuba had joined the Allies when President Menocal and the Cuban congress declared war on Germany in April of 1917; under Madame de Menocal the Cuban Red Cross raised $1000000 in cash to open and staff a hospital in France. This photograph shows ten women in Red Cross dresses holding what appear to be donation jars. Description verso reads in part<br /> <br /> “This group of Havana society girls acted as ushers at a recent special Red Cross benefit performance at the National Theatre in Havana of the Cuban Opera for the benefit of the Cuban Red Cross. Their success was so great that they volunteered for similar additional service at various other benefits held for this organization in the Cuban capital.â€. unknown
