1 XI | CHAPTER XI~ FLORIDA AND TEXAS~One question remained
2 XI | southern portion of Texas and Florida.”~It was finally agreed,
3 XI | soil of either Texas or Florida. The result, however, of
4 XI | traverses the peninsula of Florida, dividing it into two nearly
5 XI | those portions of Texas and Florida which were situated below
6 XI | conditions of latitude.~Florida, in its southern part, reckons
7 XI | against the pretensions of Florida. So, scarcely was the decision
8 XI | of twenty-six counties; Florida replied that twelve counties
9 XI | upon its 330,000 natives; Florida, with a far smaller territory,

17 XI | is going on now between Florida and Texas, it is clear that

34 XVIII | colleagues, the whole town, all Florida, all America if you like,
35 XXVI | spectators thronged the soil of Florida.~For a whole month previously,
