His love for and dedication to the city and its people shine forth from 80-plus issues of his magazine. One hundred years hence, anyone asking what Brooksville was like two hundred years ago will turn to his stories with a sense of gratitude.

Annihilation has no terrors for me, because I have already tried it before I was born /a hundred million years /and I have suffered more in an hour, in this life, than I remember to have suffered in the whole hundred million years put together. There was a peace, a serenity, an absence of all sense of responsibility, an absence of worry, an absence of care, grief, perplexity; and the presence of a deep content and unbroken satisfaction in that hundred million years of holiday which I look back upon with a tender longing and with a grateful desire to resume, when the opportunity comes.

And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, and after his image; and called his name Seth: / And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters: / And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.

No power in society, no hardship in your condition can depress you, keep you down, in knowledge, power, virtue, influence, but by your own consent.

William Ellery Channing (1780-1842)

William Ellery Channing

And the silver of them that were numbered of the congregation was an hundred talents, and a thousand seven hundred and threescore and fifteen shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary: / A bekah for every man, that is, half a shekel, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for every one that went to be numbered, from twenty years old and upward, for six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty men.
