The Columbia State from week to

diers Ia the Revolutionary war, las
they bave been culled from the guam.
tity OF loose documents discovered by
Secretary OF State CAN'T In the State
house. The State says when the
h work Is finally done, it is hoped,
that q comparatively complete list
+ OF the men who fought under Marion,
Z PtckenB and Sumter during the clos
Ing years Of the Revolution-that Pc
4 riod which marked the bitterest frat
rtcidal struggle that has taken place
In an American State, and OF brilliant
and memorable achievements Of sons
OF South Carolina will be preserved.
Prior to the fall of Charleston, May
i SO, 1880, our State was removed from
the centre OF the conflict, and but for
the brilliant victory Of Fort MOultrie
and few desultory and almost blood
less invasions, engaged in little of the
fighting; but during the closing years,
when these men whose names we are
publishing were fighting, South Caro-
lima bore the brunt Of the conflict,
and these men drove the British from
our State and Corvallis army to
Washington and Yorktown. But for
their deeds, and without their help,
Washington would have been like
Davis and Lee In latter years, the
leader OF an unsuccessful. revolution,
and South Carolina probably British
province" We shall publish these
