During the entire Revolutionary
War the Carolinas were occupied by
both American and British forces.
There was a great demand for live
stock, particularly horses, the two
armies competing for them.

of Virginia, possessors of property,

lawless element that saw an oppor-
tunity to reflect its true character
To legalize its depredations in the
valleys, they professed allegiance to
George III. Courts were few and
far apart. 1t would have been folly
to have attempted to punish by regular
methods, as the desperadoes were
organized and would have broken
open jails, had they failed to inter-
cept the officials while enroute.
