Title: Letter from Burkhart to Morse, May 6, 1912

Summary: Dr. W. S. Burkhart, on stationery "Dr. Burkhart's Vegetable Compound Office," writes to Model Land Company sales agent Frederick Morse about purchasing land in Dade, beginning humorously: "Arrived home safely and have got my hustling clothes on..." Burkhart asks to purchase a thousand acres of pine land for planting groves in the Goulds area, and says that he believes he can bring with him at least a hundred people who are interested in Florida land.
