NOTE.
"They were men admirably fitted by theirdaily pursuits for the privations they werecalled upon to endure. They had neither tents,baggage, bread, nor salt, and no commissarydepartment to furnish regular supplies. Potatoes,pumpkins, roasted corn, and occasionally abit of venison supplied by their own rifles, composedtheir daily food. Such were the menwho were gathering among the mountains andvalleys of the Upper Carolinas to beat back theinvaders."—Lossing's "Field-Book of the Revolution."
