CHAPTER XIV

|
Although Dolores had been so kind and
hospitable, she did not seem at all desirous of
keeping Picciola with her longer than the
latter had proposed to stay, but rather used
every effort to accelerate her departure; while
Picciola, on her side, was equally anxious to
pursue her journey.
(Which way shall you 60 ?" asked Dolores,
as she accompanied her to the door, their early
meal being over, and her guest ready to set
out.
Forward, I suppose" was the reply. There
would be no use in going back over the same
road I came"
"Well, I hope nothing will harm you, and
that you will get safely home. Will you have
to pass by here again, on your way back"
II cannot tell, yet. If I do, suppose I
shall see you," said Picciola. "Many thanks
for your goodness to mel shall not forget
it."
"Oh, you are very welcome! 1t was treat
to me to have you. Here is some lunch I've
put up for you," said Dolores, thrusting par
eel into her hand; "you will need it to-day"
Picciola again thanked her; and having
bid her warm adieu, set out once more on
her journey. Brave little pilgrim that she
was, she pushed on undaunted through the
forest, over as wild aud lonely path as the
one she had followed on the previous day.
She had become more used to the solitude
now and, besides, it seemed to her that she
must soon come to some settled place.
She had journeyed for five or six hours,
when the growth became less dense, and open
ings began to appear through the trees. She
was coming to tho end of the wood at last
and her heart was promptly gladdened by
the sight of several cabins scattered over a
broad sunny space, near shallow stream,
which flowed in rocky channel towards a
steep declivty in the distance, over which it
tumbled with FLASHING sound into an unseen
chasm below.
One or two men, half undressed, were sit.
ting idly about, smoking pipes !; and from their
appearance and that of their settlement, Pic
ciola rightly Judged that she had come upon
one of the numerous mining camps scattered
throughout the country-all of them recent
institutions for it was just about the period
when the "Gold Fever" had begun to prevail.
The men stared at her as she approached,
and it was not without feeling of timidity
that she proceeded on her way, for no signs
did she perceive anywhere of the presence Of
her own sex but presently, to her relief the
figure of a buxom, jolly-looking dame made
its appearance at the door of a building rath-
er larger than the rest, above which swung a

HISTORICAL SKETCHES
OF THE
Early Settlement of South Carolina.
BY REV. ROBERT LATHAM.


BATTLE OF SULLIVAN'S ISLAND.
We have already seen, that through the
prompt and energetic action of the authori.
ties of South Carolina in selling the mail
brought from London to Charleston, the true
position of England toward her North Amer
lean colonies was first discovered. This bold,
and, in one sense, reasonable act, was per-
formed on the 18th day of April, 1775, by
William Henry Drayton, John Neufville and
Thomas Corbett. 1t was now manifest that
non.importation acts which had, on two for
former occasions, proved successful in causing
Great Britain to redress the grievances she
had, by her parliamentary acts, inflicted upon
her colonies, would, in this case, fail to effect
the desired result. The people Of South Car
olina became thoroughly aroused. There
were, in the State, multitudes of individuals
who afterward were designated by the infa-
nous title of tories and then some who, from
conscientious scruples, dared not oppose, BY
word or act, the British government; and
there was another class, composed of traders,
mostly Scotch and halfbreed Indians, the off:
spring of Indian mothers and Indian traders.
This class sympsthised with the British gov
ernment. hegreat majority ofthe nen and
women of influence and moral worth, in every
section of the State, were Wings.
From 1854, the time that the stamp act
was passed by the British parliament, up to
the time that the British mail bag was wrested
from the postmaster in Charleston by Will
liam Henry Drayton and his colleagues, the
movements of the mother country had been
closely watched. The British parliament
made, during this period, various efforts to
encroach upon the chartered rights of the COL
onies but the vigilance of the leading states
man of South Carolina never suffered the peo-
pie to be entangled in a snare.
On the 18th of January, ITS, the provin-
cial Congress of South Carolina met in
Charleston. 1t consisted of one hundred and
eighty.four members, chosen from all sections
of the province. The Constitutional Assembly
consisted of only forty.nine members. Hence,
the Provincial Congress was nearly four times
as large as the Constitutional Assembly. Dur
ing the sitting of the Provincial Congress,
Lord William Campbell, the newly appointed
Royal Governor, arrived in Charleston. He
was received by the people with the manifes-
tations of joy which it was customary to show
on the arrival of new Governor. An ad-
dress was prepared and presented to Cover
nor Campbell by the Provincial Assembly.
In this address, the representatives Of the peo-
pie declared that they had been moved to do
what they had done, not from love of inno-
vation or desire to alter the constitution of
the government; nor even had a lust for inde-

the Action, which was still stranded, withdrew
to Five Fathom Hole. Soon the next morning,
the garrison opened fire upon the Acteon,
which, at first, was returned. Sir Peter Park
or, seeing the condition of the Acteon, sent
word to the crew to set her on fire and leave
her. This was done, but before she blew up
a small party of Carolinians, under Captain
Jacob Milligan, boarded her, took her flag,
which the crew left, her bell, and three boat
loads of supplies Then having fred her
guns, which were left loaded, upon the Bristol,
they left. In few minutes after the depart
ure of Captain Milligan and his party, the
Acteon blew up.
Clinton again attempted to cross Beach
Inlet, but Captain Thomas again drove him
back. The fleet proceeded to Long Island to
recruit. On the 18th of July, with a ruined
fleet and heart filled with sorrow, the whole
British force left South Carolina for New
York. Moultrie's slaughter pen had blasted
the hopes of Parker, CORVALLIS, Clinton and
Vaughn. Fort Sullivan was afterward, in
honor fits brave defender, named Moultrie.
Among those who covered themselves with
glory, was Sergeant William Jasper and Ser
geant Mcdonald. When the flag staff was
shot down, Jasper leaped over on the beach,
secured the flag, and then, amid shower Of
iron hail, mounted the ramparts and planted
it on the walls of the fort. Poor Mcdonald
was mortally wounded. When dying he said ::
II die, my comrades but do not let the cause
of liberty die with me-"
Governor Rutledge presented Jasper with
bis own sword and offered him commission;
in the army. The sword be accepted, but
declined the commission because he could not
read.
y Mrs. Barnard Elliott presented Meultries
regiment with pair of colors. Moultrie,
for his men, pledged that they should never
be dishonored. This, pledge cost Jasper
Bush, Hume and Gray, their lives at Sar
vannah. q.
