  Capt. William Goodwyn vs. Capt. Tenison Cheshire. Along the Salkehatchie River was an active community of Loyalist settlers that were led by Capt. Tenison Cheshir, Capt. Jones, and Capt. Oldfield. There had been a truce there between the Patriots and the Loyalists since late Spring, but this truce was broken when Capt. William Goodwyn and eighteen (18) men of the Camden District Regiment of Militia attempted to kidnap Capt. Tenison Cheshire and bring him to Major General Nathanael Greene's camp. No other details are known except that this plan failed. |
