In the larger communities of Savannah and Augusta, the citi- zens had the resources of trade and commerce to fall back on, but in the smaller settlemejits and rural dis- tricts the condition of the inhabitants bordered on destitution. At the time that Savannah was surrendered to the American troops, there was almost a famine in the land. The soldiers were without shoes, and sometimes they were without supplies. The crops were short on account of the lack of farmers. The condition of the people ...was quite as bad as that of the troops, especially when the disbanded militia returned to their homes. Houses, barns, and fences had been burned; stock and cattle had been slaughtered or driven away; and there was a great lack of even the necessities of life. But those whose energy and spirit upheld them through the long struggle for independence were not the men to surrender to the hard circumstances that surrounded them. They went to work as bravely as they had fought ; and the sacrifices they made to peace were almost as severe, though not so bloody, as those they had made to war.
