Colonial Mobile; an historical study largely from original sources, of the Alabama-Tombigbee basin and the old South West, from the discovery of the Spiritu Santo in 1519 until the demolition of Fort Charlotte in 1821 . e determined on another expedition, andspent several years in preparation. As it was by way of theMississippi, however, it is somewhat outside the scope of ourstory, and we can only note that it was made in 1740.
