To the Honorable the Senate and House of Representatives of the legislative council of Florida: We, the undersigned inhabitants of the County of Mosquito, approach your honorable body with feelings of respect, and humbly pray that the name of Mosquito County be altered and changed to that of Harrison County. The name of Mosquito is very unpleasant to many of the citizens of said county. Your petitioners further humbly pray that the boundaries of Harrison County may be defined as follows, viz: beginning on the Atlantic coast on the northern or upper parallel line lately run by Colonel Washington, and running due west along said parallel line to the high sand hills between ranges twenty-six and twenty-seven east, opposite the Ahapopka Lake; thence following the sandhills in a northwardly direction until it strikes the Ahapopka Lake; thence down the Ahapopka Lake until it strikes the Oklawaha River; thence down the Oklawaha River until it strikes the original south-west corner line of St. Johns County; thence eastwardly along the southern boundary line of St. Johns County to the Atlantic coast, near the head of Matanzas River; thence southwardly along said Atlantic coast to the point of beginning. And your petitioners will ever pray C. Taylor Henry A. Crane Horace Dennis Algernon S. Speer Sterling H. Carty A.J. Vaughn Vincent Lee Leo Church L. Chatterno Henry Brooks L. Carpenter J.
