party. In a contribution to Leslie's
Weekly, ]. L. Ingraham. one of Flor
ida'S railroad magnateS, later recited
an interesting chapter in the history
of grapefruit:
while out driving one morning at
Barlow, we visited the place Of Jacob
Summerlin. Mrs. Leslie noticed upon
the ground in Mr.. Summerlin's grove
great numbers of yellow fruit, the
ground being covered with them. She
asked Mr.. Summerlin what they were,
and he told her grapefruit and she
asked me If it was the same kind of
fruit We had had at breakfast and
lunch. 1 answered yes and she said
to Mr.. Summerlin: why don't you
sell them? He replied: Bless you,
madam, l sent 20 barrels to New York
last fall and they brought me s26.40 in
cebt. 1 will never ship another one;
the people do not want them She
asked him if he would sell her a few.
Sell you. no. he said. I will give
you all you can carry Off And he
filled the bottom of the carriage with
the finest fruit to be had on his trees,
refusing to put in any that were
picked off the ground.
That evening at dinner Mrs. Les
lie said: MIR. Ingraham, something
should be done for the grapefruit. We
who are here can help l live at the
Victoria. Mr.. and Mrs. Plant at the
Brunswick. and Mr.. O'Brien lives at
the ST. James, all in New York. If
you will send me some grapefruit, I
will give them TO my friends and l
will ask for one every morning and
have my friends ask for grapefruit
too This was agreed upon. and that
season / sent Mrs. Leslie over so
barrels of grapefruit, the Southern
Express Company generously trans
porting them free of cost. Thus
grapefruit from Florida was intro
duced to the American people largely
through the efforts of Mrs. Leslie
and Mrs Plant"
