aka Yamassee Bluff.

A party of thirty Loyalists disguised as Indians attacked and captured a six-man guard post belonging to the SC 6th Regiment without firing a single shoot. The Loyalists then burned the guard buildings and fled the area.

Afterward, this post at Black Swamp was reinforcfed with one hunded men of the SC 5th Regiment under Lt. Col. Alexander McIntosh. When Gen. Augustine Prevost landed 300 men nearby on April 28th, Lt. Col. McIntosh abandoned the post.
