The tournament was an official sanctioned event of the United States National Lawn Tennis Association.
Information on the springs and the health benefits from its water
Northern tourists who descended on Green Cove Springs during the annual winter migrations of the late 1800s would arrive from Jacksonville and take a boat trip south on the St. Johns River. Along the way marveling at the giant live oak trees draping moss into the water.
Arriving at the grand Magnolia Springs Hotel just north of Green Cove Springs nestled in the posh surroundings with the latest innovations of elevator, intercoms to summon liveried servants and both gas and electric lighting. The ladies became less disapproving. Afternoon tea would be served in the lavishly decorated lounge amidst oriental rugs, European landscape paintings, fellow guests would diplomats, congressmen and even an Italian opera star.

Pamphlet, 1825, Andover, Mass. Early edition. Condition is Fair: wraps show significant general wear, top outer corner of blank and last wrap missing causing loss of part a letter. Interior has ownership inscription on front blank with date of 1827, old prior seller's price on blank. No other writing or markings. Spine reinforced with paper in distant past. Paginates: wraps, blanks, 48. Illustrations included in pagination. Complete as issued. This edition is uncommon. WorldCat locates ~15 copies. See OCLC: 34635134 & 22449258; Rosenbach 681. Harlan Page is the engraver, author is unknown. Please see images of the book you will receive. Notes: identification of edition priority is a challenge. The undated New-York Religious Tract Society is generally considered the true first. The sources on this make conclusory statements and there is reason to doubt them. I put together a summary of my research for those who are interested.[Indigenous, South Pacific, theology]

Some cuttings are stuck to the pages, but all text is still quite readable. There is the signature of a previous owner (William S Longbottom) at the top of the title page. William Longbottom was better known by his pen name of Horace Weir, the author of many works on the history of Derbyshire.
