1811ref. 13130Pass Christian West Florida present-day Mississippi: June 4 1811. 3pp. on a single folio sheet addressed and docketed on verso of integral leaf postmarked at New Orleans on June 14. Original mailing folds a few fold line separations some with old small tape repairs light toning and foxing. Very good condition. An intriguing manuscript letter from Lieut. W.M. Littlejohn to Lieut. Charles Kitchell Gardner written from Pass Christian then in Orleans Territory now in Mississippi. Lieutenant Littlejohn was stationed at a United States Army cantonment at Pass Christian which was established in the aftermath of the rebellion in the Republic of West Florida in 1810. The army was dispatched to the area to keep the peace between the parties namely the United States Spain & factions supporting the Republic of West Florida. Littlejohn's letter opens with the news that his passage took him through Natchez Baton Rouge and New Orleans on his way to Pass Christian. Littlejohn then provides an informative then somewhat jarring assessment of Pass Christian: "This place is most delightfully situated on the sea shore & abounds with fish crabs & oysters -- it is also said to be the most healthy part of the country but that is counterbalanced by the total want of female society & the sea breeze & bathing which adds life & vigour wastes their precious gifts for nothing." Littlejohn then describes his quarters and doubles down on the lack of female companionship: "The cantonment is well built & convenient for the number it was intended for but not being sufficient for the last detachment we have to commence our own quarters which is no contemptible undertaking at this hot season with men unaccustomed to the climate & without tools to work with. This is the first time I have been in a country where there were no Ladies & on that account would prefer being at Washington where there is such elegant society." In the course of describing the setting weather general situation at the camp and so forth Littlejohn names the companies of troops present several of the officers some of the movements of said officers and more. He comments on the lack of significant activity noting that "there is not the smallest hope of any fighting with the Spaniards" though he does expect "a small skirmish between two great men" at some point. All artifacts of military activity from this era in Orleans Territory east of New Orleans are extremely scarce as is the New Orleans postmark from its pre-statehood period. June 4 unknown

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