12 dic 1780 anni - Battle of Halfway Swamp

Descrizione:

Col. Francis Marion and his Patriots attacked a party of Loyalist recruits escorted by Major Robert McLeroth with a detachment of his men from the 64th Regiment of Foot on their way to the British post at Camden. Major McLeroth negotiated with Col. Marion to settle the matter with a mass duel between 20 men from each side the following day. During the night, McLeroth built large fires then slipped away during the night toward Camden. Morgan learned he had been tricked the next morning and set out to catch McLeroth.
