"and the protection of the Arsenal"
TR,
They did such a good job of protecting the arsenal that when anderson tried to get muskets to arm his troops they told him that he could not have any. I must admit,they did a good job of protecting the arsenal and the good folks of Charleston. As for Pickney, see Georges post in this thread about not attacking the federal property. FC
You know, we went through all of this last year or maybe the year before. We could all save time and keyboard if anyone is interested they could just read the archived material.
