"You will see we are home agin at last, Ruby is very well and fat, but I rather hate being so far away from the doctor or in fact any help if she gets ill..." - Excerpt from a letter, Helen F. Warner to her Mother, dated July 22, 1886, Narcoossee, Florida.

"There is a scare of yellow fever just now, we are all in quarantine but there are only about four cases in Key West, but the people north got nervous and have quarantined the whole of Florida, no-one here is the least alarmed, so you need not be nervous, I will let you know if it comes any nearer, I know Mrs. Warner will be in fits about it..." - Excerpt from a letter, Helen F. Warner to her Mother, dated June 8, 1887, Kissimmee, Florida.
