          Only 5 minutes ...... to the Battleground of the bloody Battle Of Kings Mountain where Colonel Ferguson and troops were atop the mountain. Thinking they were safe from attack due to steepness of the terrain, little did he know the Over-Mountain Men were "right at home" in the hills of the Carolinas. The rest is history with the loss of 500 lives in 1 hour.
