giles in unknown florida city

I am trying to find out more about my husband's grandmother, Sara Giles Strickland Jernigan. I have a faded copy of a letter that she wrote from her brother's home in July, 1909. She was staying with the brother, whom she doesn not name, while she was trying to recover from being deserted by her husband. Sara describes her brother as a salaried man who is doing his best to support his family and also take care of her and her three children. I literally can't make out the address that she uses. Perhaps it will mean something to someone in Florida. The return address that she uses looks like "Leecanto, FLA." She says that "we sometimes send our mail to Crystal ?Pine? or ?nfune? to be mailed, but any letter that has to be directed to me - address it to Leecanto (?) - it is a county office among the Turpintine (?) firms. Any ideas? Thanks for your effort. Susan Jernigan, 919 Mt. Vernon Avenue, Charlotte, NC 28203 jernigan@charlotte.infi.net
