Not F&I, but a lot of the same people. And it was HOT. Someone said it was 104 with a heat index of 112. I wouldn't argue with that! A lot of those who were in the first action on Saturday decided not to make the second one. In fact attendance was off overall because of the heat. Many left on Saturday night, including some of the sutlers. The dance was cancelled because it was in a non-airconditioned building.

The pictures are from the afternoon battle. There would have been a lot more people in the picture if it had been taken in the first one.

And while I am on the subject of the Rev War, there is a news letter called Southern Campaings of the American Revolution which can be found at http://southerncampaign.org/ and is in .pdf format. The files are kind of big, but they are a full newsletter with a lot of articles about the war. The current one is 27 pages long. Take a look.
