A detachment of Gen. Thomas Sumter’s Patriots under the command of Col. Wade Hampton skirmished with a small British force on Charleston Neck near the Quarter House.

During the flight, Lt. David Waugh shot and killed Capt. John Wright and two others, but he was in turned killed. The garrison at the Quarter House surrendered, but one of the Loyalist was killed trying to escape.

Col. Hampton's men burned four vessels loaded with supplies for the British Army. He and his men stayed for almost two hours enjoying the enemy's food and drink, then promptly departed when they heard news that British dragoons were on their way. They made their way up the Ashley River to a rest place, where they dismounted and every man sat and held his horse until morning.

Their next target would be Strawberry Ferry.
