{{Tr|an unknown hand}} first published by Sampson Low in 1887, abridged and edited by I. O. Evans. This translation begins:
"Florida was annexed to the American Federation in 1819 and became a state a few years later. Though by its annexation the Republic's area was increased by some 67,000 square miles, the star of Florida shines only with minor brilliancy in that constellation of thirty-eight which spangle the banner of the United States."
The introduction claims that one chapter was condensed and other material added to it, and some minor passages of geographical description were omitted.
