Available at: https://stars.library.ucf.edu/fhq/vol5/iss3/5 Roberts: The Dade Massacre THE DADE MASSACRE One who would write again of the Dade massacre, ninety-one years after its occurrence, must forego the expectation of discovering any great wealth of original data, and content himself in the main with the as- sembling of facts already published, and the elimina- tion of more or less doubtful detail that has crept into former narratives, in an effort to bring into stronger relief a more or less neglected story of the American soldier’s courage and fidelity unto death. Every school-child has been taught the story of the Alamo, a tragedy enacted a scarce two months after the massa- cre of the Dade command, and of the slaughter of Custer’s cavalrymen forty years later. But even Flor- ida histories have not given full prominence to this disaster of territorial days, histories of the United States scarcely mention it, and the story is not to be found in any encyclopedia.
