Shop Robinson” (Qalbrnth Robinson) 1 were captured by the British. as they passed through this section, on their ' way to the Iowa r pari of the state. ‘‘Horse Shoe" escaped shortly nf- I terwards, stopping at the Musgfove home for shelter. While he was there, I Mary suggested that he enlist the I services of her sweetheart. John Ram- i sey, to assist him in rescuing Major 1 Hutler. During the stay of ‘‘Hor-<* \ Shoe” in the Rantsey home, ho and i fourteen year-old David Ramsey, cap ! tured four British soldiers in a cabin ! near the Ramsey place. Among the prisoners was Resign | St. Jermyn, a member of Colonel In- I nis’ staff. ‘Horse Shoe" forced the, j ensign to write a letter, telling Col- \ onel Tunis that his life would he held answerable for any harsh treatment Butler might receive at the hands of the enemy. “Horse Shoe” then left with his prisoner for a plaeo of saf ety, leaving the other three soldiers at the Ramsey home. He gave in structions that John Ramsey, who was away from home at the time, i should join him later. Mary Delivers Message The task of delivering the ensign’s letter was entrusted to Mary. Al- \ thought it was a very dangerous un i dertakine, she did not hesitate. With n basket of apples under her arm, 1 she entered the camp of Colonel Tn nis. Butler had been condemned to die and preparations were then under 1 way for his execution. Mary ap. j nroached the table, where court was in session, ■ placed her basket of ap ple, before them. After she had gone, the letter was found on the table, pnrtlv hidden un der some papers and the execution was never carried out. A reward of twenty guineaus was offed bv Col onel Innis for the bearer of the let ter. Shortly after this, Butler was re-, moved to the Musgrove home, and a detachment of British soldiers was stationed there to guard him, so the Musgrove home fell into the hands of the British. About this' time “Horse Shoe” and John Ramsey returned from William’s camp on the Saluda, where they had taken their prisoner, the ensign. Across the hnoreo from Musgrov'e Mill, Warrior crook flows into the river. Near the hanks of the river !s a beautiful waterfall (now called 1 Horse Shoe Falls). Under those falls ‘there is a small cave in which “Horse Shoe” Robinson took refuge for sev eral days whpn trapped by the Brit ish. Mary supplying*!?!* food under cover of darkness. ^ A short distance from the Mus grrove home, on the banks of the En oree, was the trysting place of .John and Mary, and often at nic-ht they would meet to discuss their plans and their future marrinee. It was here that the escape of Major Butler j was planned. John was to have ; everything in readiness, and signal | Mary from a large rock across the [river. (now cabl'd Flashing Rock) by [ flashing gun powder. • The escape was planned fo1- 4 o’clock in the morning. Major Bmler -*as to lean from his window into a large tr°e beside the house. And thus Major Butler es caped, meeting John and some of his comrades at the appointed place." John is Wounded < Approximately two hours Inter the escaping party had a brush with the enemy, and John Ramsey was mortal ly wounded. His dying words to Maj or Butler were: “I fought for you, because Mary wished it. She warned me not to he rash, but I could not help it. Re kind to her. Major Butler, and take good care of her. Tell her I did not fear to die, but for her sake and for the sake of my poor mother. Go to my parents, let them know that I thought of them in my last thoughts.” And so a beautiful romance of the Revolutionary war was shattered, i^faty never married, but continued ^serving her people, until later in •life tubetetilosis developed, and after a long illness she passed away. Four yopng girls, serving as pall bearers, placed the body of the brave, tender-hearted Mary Musgrove in her ij^rave near the old mill, beside the jnnrmuring waves of the Emoree.
