Yesterday (December 11), a bill in the mail for crossing the Cape Coral Bridge (on May 13)…read more Weird because I have a NC Quick Pass and they usually just charge that. I've been charged for crossing the bridge before and a number of times that week. So why send a bill SIX MONTHS LATER? Seriously? Frustrating because there is a $3.00 "Admin Fee." This is literally highway robbery! Your transponder reader couldn't read my transponder so I get hit with a 150% surcharge? Heck, why not make the "Admin Fee" $10.00 or $100.00? I'll just pay it (and complain here) because it's just not worth the hassle of fighting for $3.00. And who would I fight anyway? They refer me to the NC Quick Pass people to dispute the toll. Why would NC care about fixing an issue with a Florida toll? [Review 20901 overall - 1792 in Florida - 1885 of 2023.]

It turns out Fort Myer was the location of the southernmost battle during the Civil War. Marker F-297 was installed in 1982 by Col. Abraham C. Myers Camp #1322, Sons of Confederate Veterans in cooperation with Department of State. After the Seminole Wars, Fort Myers was abandoned but Union soldiers moved in December 1863. Their plan was to confiscate the cattle from area ranches in order to cut off the food supply to the Confederate Army of Tennessee in Georgia. By 1865 they had stolen 4,000 head of cattle. By that time Fort Myers had become a refuge for escaped slaves and Union sympathizers. At one point there were 400 people there. In response to the cattle thefts the Confederates organized a militia to stop the raids. Among them was Capt. Francis A. Hendry who Hendry County Florida is named for. They were called the Cattle Guard Battalion or "Cow Cavalry." In early February 1865, 275 of the Cattle Guard Battalion prepared the attack Fort Myers because they learned it might be abandoned. They arrived at Fort Thompson in LaBelle Florida where they shot several black Union soldiers who were attempting to flee. They then marched on to the gates of Fort Myers. The group led by Major Footman approached the fort under the flag of truce and gave them 20 minutes to surrender. Fort commander Capt. James Doyle sent his response " "Your demand for an unconditional surrender has been received. I respectfully decline; I have force enough to maintain my position and will fight you to the last." Doyle wheeled his cannons outside the fort and began firing on the Confederates. Throughout the day both sides fired on each other. During the fighting one black Federal soldier was killed. Firing ceased at dark and the next morning, the Cattle Guard Battalion returned to Fort Meade. After defending the fort, Fort Myers was again abandoned in early March.

This marker recalls an otherwise unimportant skirmish between Union and Confederate forces, noteworthy only because it was here in Southwest Florida. The marker reads, "In December 1863, the Army post of Fort Myers, inactive since 1858, was reoccupied. The fort served as a supply depot for the Federal blockade squadron. Troops from the fort often raided Confederate supply depots in the state's interior, since Florida beef fed the Confederate army. To discourage these raids, Confederate Major William Footman led 275 men of Florida's "Cow Cavalry" from Fort Thompson (LaBelle) to the very gates of Fort Myers. Shortly after noon of February 20, 1865, Major Footman approached the fort under a flag of truce and gave the Federals 20 minutes to surrender. After Captain James Doyle, commander of the garrison which consisted of the Union 2nd Florida Cavalry, the 110th New York Infantry, and the 2nd U.S. Colored Infantry, refused, the Confederates bombarded the fort with their field piece. They were answered by Fort Myers' three cannons. The cannonade and musketry continued until after nightfall, when Footman and his Confederates withdrew under cover of darkness. Casualties on both sides were light." [Review 13322 overall, 640 of 2020.]
