On this day in 1776,
upon learning of the approaching British forces from Kendal Plantation, a 90-man detachment of North Carolina Regulars, commanded by Maj. William Davis withdraw. Once the British troops arrive they proceed to burn the mill. On their way back to their ships, the British plunder homes along the way from the Battle of Orton Mill.
And in 1781,
Gens. Lee, Marion and Sumter capture Orangeburg, SC.
More Colonial Battles
