THIS VICINITY
RETURNS TO DAYTONl AFTER
AN ABSENCE OF FORTY YEARS
JoHs E. FOX OF MANSFIELD.
OHIO, ASSISTED IN SURVEY OF
TOWN SITE AND ERECTION OF
PALMETTO HOTEL.

John E. Fox of Mansfield, Ohio.
registered at the Granite hotel on
North Beach street, assisted in the
survey of the town site of what is
now the city of Daytona and was
also engaged in the construction of
Daytona's first hotel, the Palmetto
house.
Mr.. Fox arrived Monday and will
probably be here for a week or
more looking over Daytona and the
adjacent towns. He will go from
this place to Corinth, Miss. where
he has a daughter
Mr.. Fox came to this section in
1870 in company with Theo. Jack
son and two brothers, George and
Charles Super, all of Mansfield, Ohio,
and was engaged with j. H. Fowler.
civil engineer, then residing at Port
Orange, in surveying and laying out
the site of the town being promoted
by Matthias Day of Mansfield.
The young men for some time

metto shacks. They were then en-
gagged in the survey work with Mr..
Fowler and Mr.. Fox recalls laying
out a street along the ridge, evidently
what is now beautiful ;Ridgewood
avenue.
Later Mr.. Fox, who was a carpen-
ter, was engaged in the construction
of the Palmetto house, lumber for
which was brought by boat from
Jacksonville. During this time he
lived on the mainland, while the
others continued at their camp on
1 the peninsula. The Palmetto house
was built for Mr. Day and was. at
! first under the management of Mr..
and Mrs. R. W. Peck, parents of f.
I. Peck of the Peck Hendricks com
pany. Later it came into the pos
session of Mrs. Mary Hoag of Gin
cinnati. The frame building replaced
a palmetto structure which had
formed the only hostelry of the new
town.
There were but two or three habi-
tations on the town site at that time,
says Mr.. Fox and they were con-
structed of logs or pine poles. A
saw mill was brought here in 1871
by Mr. Shelton of Gallon, Ohio.
and afterwards purchased by Robt.
Morrison of Ada, Ohio, according to
Mr.. Fox.
Mr.. Fox was not Interested in
hunting, but says there was evi-
IDENTIFY lots of game in those days.
The fishing, however, did appeal to
him and he says the waters were
fairly alive with fish of various
kinds. At one time, while fishing
from boat, in company with a
friend, in the river channel opposite
this city, Mr.. Fox hooked and with
the assistance of his friend landed a
sea bass which weighed 401a pounds
and provided a meal for all the oc-
cupants of the hotel.
Speaking of fish, Mr.. Fox related
a strange story of countless numbers

NELSON IS VICTOR
IN SORENSEN GO
Dane Easily Outpoints Foe
in Ten Round Battle in
Racine Ring.

Racine, Wis, Feb 6.-Battling Nell
son, still the Durable Dane. outboxed
Young Sorensen of this city all the
way in their ten-round battle IN the
skating rink on the lake front last
night.
Sorensen tried hard. but lacked the
experience to cope with the veteran
Nelson.
Nelson scored four knockdowns in
his battle last night and gave Sorensen
a beating that would have knocked out
a man less tough.
In the first round Nelson dropped
Sorensen for the count of five. In the
fourth the local man went down twice.
each time for the count of nine Again
in the ninth round Sorensen went down
for the count of nine. The rounds were
only two minutes long, and this alone
prevented Nelson from scoring a
knockout in the fourth round.
Nelson confined his work entirely to
body punching. taking extreme care OF
his hands and leaving Sorensen's jaws
severely alone. The Danes maulers
were in good shape at the end and his
condition was perfect. He landed fear
full punches to Sorensen's body and
forced the local man to do backward
marathon from the third round on.
The Battler showed that he is still a
tough ringster. He drove forward IN
the copyrighted Nelson fashion and
never was idle for a minute excepting
when Sorensen locked him in the en-
brace. Referee Ed Smith was kept
busy prying the local man away from
Bat. Sorensen's only hope of staying
| being in clinching.
Nelson threw Sorensen around the
ring and did everything in his power
to make 1t an open fight, but the short
ness of the rounds and Sorensen's des-
| perate clinching foiled him.
