‘ MORGAN'S MEN.” 
Continued from page 774. 
all right; but—to the rescue of the 2d Maryland, 
a regular regiment, if I’m not mistaken, which 
also broke some little time after the battle be¬ 
gan. (Cf. ‘‘On Guard,” page 198-203.) Yet that 
line regiment had done good service elsewhere. 
It was a flanking rifle fire from the woods that 
rescued the militia, not a charge. 
Also, it was Col. Billy, not G. W., who 
officiated at the Cowpens in that classic “round¬ 
up.” But history doesn’t read that the frontiers¬ 
men ran unduly soon on that occasion. On the 
contrary, they served an excellent double pur¬ 
pose. To begin with, it was their constant ac¬ 
cession that gave Morgan force enough to make 
his stand. And he was canny enough to take 
stand on the enemy’s side of the river, for good 
reasons. (See above.) 
“The trouble with most of the militia was that 
they had not learned this last lesson (how long 
to stay), so their running capacity was the part 
of their education which had been best de¬ 
veloped. But they had lucid intervals, as it was; 
particularly in places where they couldn’t run 
for good, though local reasons, such as a 
precipice, or a deep sea.” (“Morgan’s Men,” 
page 250.) 
I wish I had space to quote the chapter fol¬ 
lowing the above, in which the tale is told as 
seen from Tarleton’s ranks; but, briefly, all 
Morgan asked of the skirmish line was one good 
volley, the men of the line would take care of 
the rest. As a matter of fact, with their horses 
conveniently near for safety, that skirmish line 
gave not one but several, and a deadly lot of 
sniping, too, till the smoke got too thick for 
aiming. Then, and not till then did they retire, 
having done their full duty. Why should they 
await a bayonet charge out in the open, with 
nary bayonet among them? So they ran for 
their horses, and got out of the line of fire round 
behind the hill. Tarleton sent a squadron after 
them which ran headfirst into Billy W. and 
came back before him in a disorganized mob, 
disarranging the main line which had its own 
troubles plus a partial success. Then round 
their other flank appeared—what? Why. those 
very militia, who had galloped round the hill, 
been reorganized somewhat, and appeared like 
a new force on Tarleton’s flank and partial rear, 
just when he needed all his eyes for the front. 
Down came the Marylanders on him yelling 
“Tarleton’s Quarters!”—ominous words—and 
his men were simply wrapped around with foes 
and overcome in a few scant minutes. Tarleton 
himself had it out hand-to-hand with Col. Billy 
W. and broke the latter’s sabre, but had to drop 
the matter there and run for his own life. And 
the despised militia were not specially backward 
in the chase. 
I’m inclined to think that Fairplay and Kep- 
hart really would enjoy “Morgan’s Men,” from 
its general dealings with the mountaineer class, 
and possibly they may find a copy in some near¬ 
by public library. 
All of which is respectfully and modestly sub¬ 
mitted. John Preston True.
