They turned out in force as volunteers, and under the spirited direction of Governor Bull, the whole disposable force of the province was put in requisition.

Among these, it is not so sure, but is believed, that Francis Marion once more made his appearance as a volunteer.

From what we know of his character, his temperament, and that unsatisfied craving which he seems to have shown from the beginning for such excitements, it is reasonable to infer his presence in the field.

But, though asserted by tradition, we confess that the records are silent on the subject.

Unsatisfactory as at that period they generally are, on this point they are particularly so; and but that his share in this war, before its final conclusion, was not only unquestionable but conspicuous, we should pass over the campaign of Montgomery, with a simple reference to its results.
