Title: Letter, November 8, 1873, Horace J. Smith, Philadelphia, to Ellen CallLong, Tallahassee, 2 pp., regarding suggestions for Centennial commemorative memorabilia: "We have a common interest to wit the promotion of harmony amongst the people of our grand country . . . I also suggested . . . the getting up of commemorative Tea Cups for the occasion. . . I would ask that you suggest to one of your Dealers that he order . . . as many Cups and Saucers as he thinks he can sell. . . In a long conversation with Hon. Mr. Yulee from your State I found that there had been discovered in Florida a valuable deposit of Kaolin and I suggested to Mr. Y. that Potteries be established in your State thereby attracting skilled labor and Capitol to our region. . ."
