On this day in 1775,
A detachment from the 3rd South Carolina Rangers had been patrolling near Seneca Town. Failing to set up any security for the camp at night, a party of Cherokee Indians surprised the Rangers with a firefight. The Rangers were driven out of the camp at the Battle of Seneca Town.
And in 1778,
The French fleet under Adm. Comte d'Estang arrives off the coast of Newport, Rhode Island.
