close of war, Colonel Tarleton passed
through North Carolina. °wine t o sou p +

grove of Willie Jones, near the town of
Halifax, and the other higher up the coun

cause he was scarce of provi!iionr; and
horses. or from a malicious desire to destroy
the property of the American citizens \vim
were opposed to the British, he caueld all
the horses, cattle, hogs, and even fou Is that
he could lay his hands on, and destroyed,
