After tiio > beginning of the Revolution lie drew I up a Kinall force of men to protect hi* hoiiu? and state. Sometimes ilia men would have to go home to at tend to urgent niattera there and therefore iiia number of men wan sometimes reduced to twenty men, boys and negroes. Marion wuh thor ougiiiy familiar with tho ttwampu be tweon ^Jamden and the coast, iieneo. Ills nickname, the "Swamp Fox." in thiH # they had the advantage over their enemy even if tiie British did outnumber them. In the center of the Hwanip wan Snow Island, Ma rlon'B camp whore he kept his sup plIoB. The men of this company suffered many hardships. For in stance, once when a British officer came up to Marion'B camp, ho was invited to dine with tho American's. When the Red Coat saw that they had only roasted Bweet potatoes he went to 1Mb commander and resign ed from the Mrltish iiriny, saying that men who could stand hardships so cheerfully could never lie beaten. Thomas Sumter was born in 1736, in Hanover county, Va. He moved to South Carolina when a youin man. He wasfilledwith anger at th outrages committed by Tarleton and Ills men. He went to Governor Rut ledge and offered Ills services, wh( gladly put him at the head of n few small companies commanded by Thomas, Lacey, Bratton and others. Sumter was very rash in his attacks, "'but he often gained what a cau tious man would not have attempt ed." It was the mode in which he attacked that caused Tarleton t nickname him "the Gamecock ol South Carolina." Cornwallis call ed him "'the greatest plague of the. British," because he was always coming upon them at unexpected times. An important battle which Sumter won. was Blackstock. He routed the British and captured their horses and supplies. Pickens was born in 1739 in Pax ton count'y. Pa. He lived in a par*, of South Carolina where there wa. not. much fighting going on. He had taken an oath in favor of the Brit ish but when they came to his house and stole everything he had lie joined the Rebel side. Pickens dre\/ up a small company and rout od the Red Coats many times. Tar leton attacked Pickens and Morgai at Cowpens. These lenders told their men not to fire on the enemy until they were closo and to aim at the epauletted men. Tarleton rush ed on them cconfident of victory, but was surprised to see the cool courage of the Americans. The men took good aim and killed ma ny officers. Cowpens was a great victory for the Americans. These three great leaders served faithfully during the Revolution without any pay. They left home and family to fight for their liberty. They always mot danger with cour age but never rushed headlong Into it. j * '? -I it i These leaders richly deserve the beautiful monument that has been given them by the Daughters of the Revolution.
