Mrs. Motte gave Gen. Marion permission to bum her house to force the British out and even furnished our men with fire arrows which they could shoot from a musket into the roof. As the British climbed to the top of the house to put the flames out, Marions riflemen shot them one by one. The British surrendered _ immediately and soldiers of both sides climbed to the roof and saved the house. Keep yours where we keep ours.
