Description Third and Fifth Territorial Governor of Florida. Printed broadside, approx. 5 x 6 in., two-column format, on larger sheet. Signed at bottom, "R.K. Call" as Governor of Florida. Tallahassee, June 18, 1836. Call notes that because of the attacks of the Seminoles, and the unrest spreading to the Creeks, it had become necessary to enlist 10,000 volunteers, approved by Andrew Jackson, President, to put down the Indian uprisings once and for all. 1,000 of these new volunteers were to come from Florida. The initial push would be to keep the Seminoles and Creeks from joining forces, although some Creeks had already moved to what is today the Florida panhandle after their defeat by Jackson in 1814 (Treaty of Fort Jackson).
