On this day in 1775,
Two companies of mounted South Carolina Rangers seize Ft. Charlotte, just west of Ft. Ninety-six across the Savannah River. The Rangers succeed without resistance from the small contingent of British on garrison.
The action is the first by colonial troops in the royal colony South Carolina.
