Hobbs, of this generation, lived about a half mile east of Guilford Court House on a farm owned bj William 'Jenkins, who sold it to William Carr, where he kept a county inn for. the accom moaation oi travelers and persons visiting the Court House. That on the morning of the battle Gen Greene rode down to the Hobbs Inn for breakfast. When he came out there was quite a crowd around the General's horse admiring him The General being in a felicitous humor took his sword from its scabhard and giving it a twirl with company of North Carolina caval ry, forty men tinder the Marquis of Bretigny and! a fine company of Virginia volunteer cavalry from Prince Edward county under Capt. Thomas Watkins, and in this com pany was Peter Francisco The Giant. Washington sounded the bogle for a charge; and pushing down the slope of the ridge leaped across the branch in his front and rushed in full gallop upon the rear of the "Queen's Guards," and pass ing through slew them right and left. Lieutenant Holcomb, , of Capt. Watkins' company! relates: l ne strong arm of Francisco level ed three of the enemy during one charge and eleven before the fight was over.' In FooteV Sketches of North Carolina, he said: ,The ear nage was dndful. It was at this time that the; noted Francisco per formed a deed of blood without a parallel.; One of the guards thrust his bayonet and in spite of the parrying of Francisco's sword pin ned his leg to the horse. Francis co, forbore to strike but assisted hinr to extricate bis bayonet. As the soldier turned and fled Fran Cisco made a furious blow with his sword and cleft the poor fellow down to his shoulders.'" i Sill IB ID! irz sell Tiiii ci:li:j$i:atj:d a IiSSTSST CRASH, Double Swunk before making up, made by Tailors, with every : re- I I gard for perfect fit. !

But few persons in our State are aware of the fact that North Caro lina had a com Dan v of cavalrv in this' battle who were under the command of the Marquis of Bret igny, a French nobleman, who came over with Lafayette to help us in our struggle for liberty. They were well mounted and did their duty fully on that day.

His lordship was mount ed ton a Dragoon's horse, his own having been shot. , The saddle bags were under the creature's belly, which much retarded his progress. owing to the vast quantity of un derwood that was spread over the ground. His lordship was evident ly unconscious of his danger.) I immediately laid hold of the bridle of his horse and turned his head. I then mentioned to him thatr if his lordship had pursued the same direction be would in a few mo ments have been surrounded by the enemy and perhaps cut to pieces or captured. I continued to run along side of the horse keeping.the bridle in-my hand until his lord ship gained , the 23rd regiment, which was at that time drawn up in the skirt of the woods." The common tradition is that this horse was killed about a hundred and fifty yards from and a little northwest of the present restau rant in a blind road at the. north em boundary of the Battle Ground. roundhead. j "This horse was aspendidjim ported stallion presented to Qorn wallis by Col. Fannin and killed during the battle by a cannon ball'. We have this romantic account of the career of this noble animal : Judge Maurice Moore was a man of large wealth and lived in Brunswick county. Just previous to the Revolution he imported from England the thoroughbred stallion "Montrose" by name and a brood mare, "Highland Mary,' of qually fine blood. One of the progeny of this pair ws "Roundhead," a large, splendid red bay. - This hors he gave to his son-in-law, Gen. Fran cis Nash, then a resident of Htlls boro, where the horse developed into a noted racer. When teen. Nash went into military service under Washington he left "R;hnd heart" at Hilleboro. David Fannin, the noted Tory guerilla, dashed into Hillsboro and seized "Round head.'' Gen. Nash was subsequent ly killed at Germantown. He had ith him a body-servant, a 'negro named Harry. The efficiency; and fidelity of Harry were well known and Gen. William R. Davie made a request of the executor of Gen. Nash for the hire of Harry as a body-servant to himself,' and Harry went again to the war. We next hear of him at the battle of Guil ford. -In the action Harry f was close to the heels of Davie-and Greene. The latter with his field glass directed attention to Lord . .. i .. - - . . ry leton's English Dragoons. He says the latter, were small and "bob-tailed." The American horses were large and heavy and could ride these small horses down. It is singular t relate that both Lee and Tarleton were chosen by their respective commmanders north and placed at the head of picked corps. Both corps were thoroughly equip ped and splendidly uniformed; both wore green velvet jackets and their respective men were frequent ly mistaken for each other on that account, as at Pyle's defeat in Alamarce county. Tartlet. n had to recruit his corps at times with American Tories, by which it be came demoralized,; and for that reason Col; William Washington gave Tarleton such a sound thrash ing at Cowpens. ' Col. Tarletorn lost two fingers at Guilford. SECOND XSCAPE OF CORNWALLIS (see schenck, p. 377) "The next escape from dange by Lord Cornwallis took place at the foot of the steep hill east of the fork' of the Bruce and Salis bury roads, near the ancient while oak, which still -markB the spot. Cornwallis came down to see the condition of the battle and under the cover of smoke rode to that old white oak just in the skirts of the flery contest Col. Wm. Washing ton, who had drawn off his troops, was hovering around to watch his opportunity for another onset, and approached that same old oak un perceived by his lordship, j Stoop ing to beckon on bis men to move and intercept-the officer then un known to him, he happened to strike his unlaced helmet from his head. While dismounted . to re cover it a round of grapeshot from the British artillery wounded j the officer next in command to Wash ington and incapacitated him to manage his horse. The animal wheeled . around and carried the officer off the field,' followed by the rest of the cavalry, who unhappily supposed that the movement had been directed. Thus Cornwallis escaped." j PETER FRANCISCO THE GIANT Was avojunteer cavalryman from Virginia and performed sariguinary service j on that memorable day. This is xelated of him, .
