Additional Description: Gen. Thomas Sumter’s order to assault the strong British position at Shubrick’s Plantation cost dozens of casualties on both sides. Sumter’s brashness contrasted with Marion’s reputation for conservatism. As James Jenkins of Britton’s Neck, then a teenage militiamen, wrote of Marion: “He loved his men, and would not expose them where there was no hope.”
