The only resistance kept up by the Ameri- cans was maintained by the partisan corps of patriots led by Marion, Sumter, and Pickens.
The exploits of these daring bands caused the British commander to feel that he could not hold the Carolinas except by the aid of a strong force, and kept him in a state of con- stant uneasiness. On the sixteenth of A_ugust Sumter defeated a large body of British and Tories at Hanging Rock, east of theWateree river. Large numbers of negroes deserted their masters a
...nd fled to the British.
In order to offer a definite resistance to the British, and to collect a regular army to oppose them, the Baron De Kalb was sent to to take command of the troops in the south, and all the regulars south of Pennsylvania were ordered to join him. De Kalb man- aged to collect about two regiments, and with these moved slowly southward. A lack of provisions forced him to halt three weeks on Deep river, one of the upper tributaries of the Cape Fear.
Matters were so bad in the south that Con- gress resolved to send General Gates, the conqueror of Burgoyne, to take command of the army in that quarter.
