Men inflicted a major defeat on
the British forces in what prov
ed to <be the turning of the tide
of the Revolutionary War in fa

Kings Mountain area citizens
have taken note of the impor
tant historical shrine only spor
adically. There was a tig cen
tennial celebration in 1880 and
a mammoth sesqui-centennlal
celebration in 1930. In most oth
er years, attention to the Shrine
has been limited to brief cere
monies by patriotic organiza
tions of Kings Mountain, York,
S. C., and other nearby commu
nities.
This year, however, the famous
battle has been dramatized In
the drama "Then Conquer We
Must!", which closes its series of
performances on Saturday even
ing. The drama is the result of
considerable research on the
part of Author Bab Osborne and,
in most respects, is historically
accurate.

there are two programs one
conducted by the Red Cross, and
another conducted by thf mili

from the truth. The Red Cross

partment of Defense aa the offi

came Into the picture to help the
Red CroM and to press upon the
public the extreme urgency of the
situation. The Red Cross Itself
is receiving no compensation for
acting as blood procurement
agency for the Armed Forces, al
though it is true that the De
partment of Defense Is paying
part of the expense of collecting
an processing blood needed for
our troops. The Red Cross and
the military are working togeth
er as a team in an effort to get
the blood necessary to build up
our supply of plasma which has
been dangerously depleted. The
men In uniform will also give
blood In this drive, but the bulk
of it must, as always, come from
the civilian population." ?

The mobl
clipping from the Charlotte Ob
server, in which the late Robert
Lee Durham, a Kings Mountain
native and later founder of a
girls' school ~t Bu6na Vista, Va?
relates the story of Virginia Sal,
as well as some interesting hist
ory on Kings Mountain and the
means by which it came to bear
the name of the famous battle.
The letter of Mr. Durham to
the Charlotte Ohscver follows:
?'The discussion in your paper
albout Colonel < Major?) Patrick
Ferguson's grave at the Kings
Mountain Battle Ground 'brings
to my memory some facts that
may be of Interest in that con
nection which, as far as I know,
have never been put ?n print.
"My grandfather and grand
mother, Dr. James Wright Tracy
and Miss Reglna Minerva Stone,
both natives of Spartanburg
County, South Carolina, were
married and moved over into
Cleveland County, North Caroli
na, in 1844 and settled in the
neighborhood of what is now the
town of Kings Mountain, and in
six or seven miles of the battle
ground. My grandfather told me
that he was greatly interested In
the traditions of the battle and
in the discussion of the true lo
cation of Ferguson's grave, which
was in some dispute because yt
the confusion of the place lie was
killed with the spot of his burial.
Within a year my grandfather
became acquainted with an old
man, Harmon, whose Christian
name I forget, who was then 80
years of age who said that as A
boy of 15 living in the vicinity of
the battle ground ?<e had gone
there immediately after the bat
tle and could point out the spot
of Ferguson's burial with some
accuracy, although it had been
unmarked and neglected and
overgrown during the 85 years
and was, of course, only one of
the graves of the more than 300
British and Tories killed and
buried there.
"To remove the uncertainty as
well as to throw light on some
other traditions, my grandfather
In the year 1845 took this old
man Harmon and some laborers
and opened ?he nave, or, rather,
made an excavation at the point
designated by Hanmm. He found
two skeletons, or parts of two
skeletons, In what was ordinary
space for one grave. One of these
skeletons, his doctor's training
told him, was that of a woman.
This was something of a confir
mation of the tradition that one
of Colonel Ferguson's two mis
tresses, "Virginia Sal." was kill
ed In ftie battle (which envelop
ed Ferguson's camp on all sides)
and was buried in the grave with
him. As I recall, there is some
mention of this "Virginia Sal" In
Draper's History. - \k,
"There w*s another tradition
audiences last weekend. More
171st anniversary of the Battle of
Kings Mountain, the turning of
the tide of the Revolutionary
War.
The show continues to receive
wide and favora'ble comment a
mong reviewers and theatre-go
ers, and the Kings Mountain Litr
tie Theatre, Inc., sponsor of the
drama, is already discussing
plans tor the 1952 season, in
which it hopes to present the
new outdoor attraction for a long
er run.
Author of the drama is Bob
Osborne and the director is C. J.
Spivey.
