I was alerted by a letter last month that Robert was hurt in the Battle of Charleston, but was doing fine and would recover. He hasn't returned, and I have recieved no more updates about him.I almost wish he would have been fighting in the Battle of Camden, even if it did fail. The Patriots attempted to drive the British out of Camden, SC in August. The attack was poorly executed, and half of the expected soilders were there. This battle strengthened the British, and their control over the Southern Colonies. I hope this won't result in a major downturn.
