From Florida Memory: Letter, April 18, 1857, H. Douglas, Jacksonville, to Ellen Call Long, 2 pp., consoling her ''on the death of your darling Minnie. . . she is at rest, free from all pain and trouble. . . strive to do all you can to serve God. My dear dear Mrs. Long this is all we can do, my heart aches for you. I hear also that Mr. Long is very ill. Oh how I wish I was with you. . . I have been so anxiously expecting you and your dear ones to visit me, and to think I am never to see that dear child again. . .''

Douglas, H.
