calamity until both Duval and Seldor
were wounded. Then the forlorn hope
was with great loss, forced to retire tc
the American trenches. Only a few
survived. The most were left in the
Ieheiny's ditch.
The assailing columns led by Lieu
tenant Colonel Lee was more success
full. Captain Rudolph gained the ditch

General Greene now determined to
retreat to avoid Rawdon. On the even

siege was raised and General Greene
led his forces across the Saluda and
retreated rapidly in the direction OF
the. Enoree.
The siege of Ninety-Six lasted from
| the twenty second of May until the
eighteenth of June. The American loss
during the siege was Captain Marx
Armstrong, shot through the head or
the ,iay of the assault and one hundred
and eighty five men in killed, wounded
and missing. The garrison lost eighty
fye. II is remarkable that only one
oflicer on each side was killed.
The failure to capture Ninety-SiH
was very mortifying to both the Off
GERS and men In the army. Whethei
all was done and done in the right way
and at the right time that could have
been done to capture the place, cannot
ut this late date be ascertained salts
factorily. At the time Kosciusko was
censured on account Of his slowness
and some thought General Greene
should have exercised more of his own
Judgment with regard to the manner
of, conducting the siege. Charity bids
IA say that all acted their part vel
from patriotic motives.

Here, upon this lonely height,
Born In storm and bred In strife,
Nursed by Natures secret might,
Freedom won the boon Of life.
Song Of bird and call of kline,
Fluttering leaf on every tree,
Every murmur of the wind,
Impulse gave to Libertyl
Then she blew q bugie blast.
Summoned all her yeoman leal;
Friends! the despot's hour is past
Let him now our vengeance feel!"
Rose they in heroic might,
Bondsmen fated to be free,
Drew the sword of Justice bright,
Struck for God and Liberty
Come, we sons OF patriot sires,
Who the tyrant's power o'erthrew,
Here, where burned their beacon fires,
Light your torches all anew!
Till this Mountains glowing crest,
Signaling from sea to sea
Shall proclaim from East to West
Union, Peace, and Liberty!
