Title: Letter, December 1, 1874, Joseph B. Browne, Key West, to Ellen Call Long, Tallahassee, 6 pp., reporting that he is "unable to offer you much encouragement from this section for your centennial scheme. . . In regard to the probability of being able to organize a centennial committee here I have great doubts. . . the changes in the condition of society has been so great, in the last few years, that those, who formerly had the means, time, and disposition for such gratifying work, are unable to arouse themselves to that height of ardor which is a necessary premise to satisfactory success. . . I think one of the most attractive features of the coming centennial exhibition might be made by a skillful display of the products and animals of our southern land and waters. . ."
