After whites in West Pasco County “massacred African American sawmill workers on the Cotee River, a sign hung near the entrance to Elfers as late as the early 1920s that read: ‘Nigger, don’t let the sun set on you here.’”
Ralph Bellwood, Tales of West Pasco (LISA Printing, 1973) 14-16. Also see Ortiz, 71.
