Here is a land that "fairly reeks with history”. Gentlemen of France, Grandees of Spain; Lords and adventurers of Merrie England; pirates and buccaneers; Indian fighters,baronial planters, noted statesmen; the persistent, will-o'-the-wisp forces of Sumter and Marion; the ragged, hungry, undaunted armies of the Confederacy. All these have lived and loved and fought and died and > left their imprint here. *. In this section the first English colonics in r America were started; France and Spain made futile bids for this great empire. Here are cities and towns that date back to the dawn of our country’s history. Many have known the hardships of occupation by hostile armies. Hardly a cross-roads hamlet but has wit- ^ ncssed stirring and important events, or has sen* < Its sons to play leading pans in the affairs of their times. Here the tyranny of George the Third first met with outspoken and organized resistance. Here scores of bloody battles have been fought. These shores have been pillaged by Blackboard and Gasparilla and other pirates of their day. Into these ports swift blockade runners came, daring the fire of Union fleets, to bring food and munitions to Lee’s tattered forces. Richmond, Norfolk, Petersburg, Newbem, Wilmington, Fayetteville, Augusta, Columbia, Charleston, Savannah, Brunswick, Montgomery, St. Augustine, Tampa, Bradenton. Each name brings up pictures of the stirring events that ail of these have seen. And there are scores of omcr places where much history has been made. Nr: the least important event of an eventful century has been the welding of more than 100 railroads into the Atlantic Coast Line System, serving the six southeastern states and making a reality of that 'Great Highway of the Union’* which the founders of the Petersburg Railroad envisaged one hundred yeais*ago.
