Jane Brevard Darby scrapbook: Poem, n.d., 9 pp. plus cover page, in the form of a printed pamphlet, entitled ''San Louis,'' about ''the remains of an old and extensive Spanish fort'' west of Tallahassee, which, ''the last stronghold of Spanish chivalry, was itself invested and after a most bloody and terrific assault, fell into the hands of the savages. . . upon this spot some awful and unexpected calamity, the result too of war, smote the Indian race.
