Hamilton County, Florida
This site is a place to put historical information that I obtain and transcribe about Hamilton County, Florida. I will update it as information is completed. However, as it is entirely voluntary on my part, assistance is more than appreciated. If you wish to help, please contact me and I will get back with you.
It is important to realize that I transcribe everything exactly as it is presented in the original text. This means that if there is a grammatical mistake in the original document, I will transcribe the mistake exactly as it appears. Any additions to the document that are not part of the original document are typed in bold text. This is to help distinguish markings from the original text of the documents.
Finally, if there are any documents that you wish to see transcribed, you may make the request by emailing me: mapetty@gmail.com.
Ode to the Typographical Error
The typographical error is a slippery thing and sly; You can hunt til you are dizzy, but it somehow will get by. Til the forms are on the press, it is strange how still it keeps. It shrinks down in a corner, and it never stirs or peeps, that typographical error, too small for human eyes. Til the ink is on the paper, when it grows to mountain size. The boss, he stares with horrow, then he grabs his hair and groans; The copy reader drops his head upon his hands and moans. The remainder of the issue may be clean as clean can be, but the typographical error is the only thing you see.
