Beschreibung:

Col. Wade Hampton was ordered by Brigadier General Thomas Sumter to ride towards Biggins Creek Bridge and harass any British posts in the area. He attacked 15-Mile House, so named because it was 15 miles from Charles Town. William Brotherton wrote in his pension "They had a skirmish at the 15-Mile House and took prisoners but no person was killed."
