That officer, soon after reaching his place of destination, was attacked by General Moultrie, and compelled to retreat with considerable loss. This repulse checked the designs of Prevost on South Carolina.

"I am sure I don't know, sir but I had better read you the contents of Roswell's letter, and then you will hear the whole story." Mary now proceeded to read aloud.
