ten o'clock
A railroad , fifteen miles in length , takes travellers the rest of the way . '' We could see nothing but a few sheds , and Tocoi itself was of no consequence . The river was just about what we had seen all the way up from Jacksonville . At ten o'clock we ran up to the wharf at Pilatka . This is a thriving town of from fifteen hundred to two thousand inhabitants , and , like every other place on the river , is a resort for invalids from the North . After dinner the party landed and explored the town , which is not very different from any other Florida towns we had seen . It had pleasant houses , surrounded with orange gardens .
