"Fort Green, Florida Of December 1856
Ft. Green, Fla.
Dec. 27th, 1856
Mr. Editor:
I beg leave through your columns to congratulate my fellow sufferers on the quiet state of things now existing on the frontier though I have strong apprehensions that there is danger yet ahead.
Myself and seven others, with our families, are not, I suppose considered frontiersmen, from the fact we are living eighteen miles south of the military line of posts, established for the protection of the Whites, from the action of some of the gentlemen in charge of affairs.(1)
Endnotes to the letter above:
(1) The eight families were, probably, those of: Jesse Alderman, David Brannen, James D. Green, Richard Pelham, Daniel Sloan, Thomas Underhill, Maxfield Whidden, and Willoughby Whidden, all of whom voted in Manatee County elections on December 3, 1855 at Plunders Branch, a tributary of Paynes Creek."
