  • Cape Florida Light by CHARLES M
    Te test^t Cape Florida Light By CHARLES M. BROOKFIELD Along the southeast Florida coast no more cheery or pleasing sight glad- dened the heart of the passing mariner of 1826 than the new lighthouse and little dwelling at Cape Florida. Beyond the glistening beach of Key Bis- cayne the white tower rose sixty-five feet against a bright green backdrop of luxuriant tropical foliage. Who could foresee that this peaceful scene would be the setting for events of violence, suffering and tragedy? At night the tower's gleaming white eye followed the mariner as he passed the dangerous Florida Reef, keeping watch to the limit of its visibility. When in distress or seeking shelter from violent gales the light's friendly eye guided him into Cape Florida Channel to safe anchorage in the lee of Key Biscayne. From the beginning of navigation in the New World, vessels had entered the Cape channel to find water and wood on the nearby main. Monendez in 1567 must have passed within the Cape when he brought the first Jesuit missionary, Brother Villareal, to Biscayne Bay. Two centuries later, during the English occupation, Bernard Romans, assistant to His Majesty's Surveyor General, in recommending "stations for cruisers within the Florida Reef", wrote: "The first of these is at Cayo Biscayno, in lat. 250 35' N. Here we enter within the reef, from the northward . you will not find less than three fathoms anywhere within till you come abreast the south end of the Key where there is a small bank of 11 feet only, give the key a good birth, for there is a large flat stretching from it.

At the termination of the Indian War, in 1833, when, after much bloodshed, a treaty of peace was happily ef­ fected, and as was believed, firmly established between the American Government and Black Hawk and his fol­ lowers, it was then the opinion of many, that in conse­ quence of the severe chastisement received by the latter, that neither they or any of their red brethren would be found so soo^ manifesting- (by offensive operations) a dis­ position to disturb the repose of the white inhabitants of any of ouF frontier settlements—but, in this opinion, we have

  • Taming the Reef the Coast Survey in the Keys
    Taming the Reef The Coast Survey in the Keys James Tilghman —No portion of the coast of the United States has stronger claims than this to a speedy and minute survey, whether we regard the dangers to navigation, the amount of commerce which passes it, or the various localities of the Union interest­ ed in the trading vessels. Alexander Dallas Bache Superintendent of the Coast Survey, 18u9 As Ponce de Leon sailed south along the coast of Florida in 1513, he encountered the Gulf Stream where it runs close to shore north of Lake Worth Inlet. Swept back bv a current his log describes as "more powerful than the wind,” it took weeks for the small fleet to regroup. Ponce de Leon’s pilot (navigator), Anton de Alaminos, remembered the ordeal six years later when he was aboard Hernando Cortes' flagship carrying the first Aztec gold and Cortes' bid to be governor of Mexico back to Spain. Speed was of the essence, and it was feared the lone ship might be inter­ cepted by the governor of Cuba, a rival, if it made for the Atlantic through the Old Bahama Channel, the established route that ran between Cuba and the Great Bahama Bank. So Alaminos decided to round Florida and head north instead, convinced that a current as strong as the one he had experienced would lead to open water. He was right, of course. The Gulf Stream not only carried him to the Atlantic but half wav back to Spain.1 This "New Bahama Channel," also known as the Gulf or Straits of Florida, became the most important sea lane in the New World—the route home for thousands of Spanish and European ships, and later the 6 TEQUESTA wav around Florida for American ships sailing between ports on the Gulf and Atlantic Coasts.
