Excerpt from A Tallahassee Girl
Along with the new order of things came great political excitement, which in the black belt, as middle Florida was called, culminated in many a thrilling coup and lawless adventure in the field of partisan strife. The capital was the scene of the memorable count so disas trous to one party, so valuable to the other, and withal so disreputable to both.
Adventurers from all quarters Of the United States, and especially from the East, hurried to Tallahassee with a view to riding into office upon the votes of the poor, ignorant, and kindly-natured freedmen.
